Housing in VANTAA, Helsinki or Espoo :)

Okay...I'll amend my request : Add Vantaa to the list of places that may or may not have a 3 bedroom. Three of the FIVE kids are moving with us, so I cant imagine anything smaller ( yes we have been " busy " haha).

Two bedrooms might do, but the kids would probably kill one another :)

http://www.etuovi.com is quite good if you can work your way round the site

Have a look here

I just searched for 4 or more rooms, which usually means one is the lounge.

But at least you can get some idea of rent and there is some photos of the buildings too :D [/url]

Hei Trish,

A good person to call is Hannu Keinänen from LEL. LEL is an insurance company that has a number of units both residential and commercial throughout the greater Helsinki area. Hannu is a real quality guy who we were going to lease from if we had moved to Helsinki but instead I am going to Ilmajoki. He has great English skills and I know him personally. Don't be afraid to use my name and let him know you came from .. If he can't help you he will direct you to who can. The units he has are outstanding and moderately priced. All have high speed internet access. Good luck and tell him I will be in touch...

Best wishes,
Donald
