Hi, my partner and I have recently moved to Addis and are looking for a nice home for 6 months or so.
It needs it to be fully furnished, and ideally with a balcony/outdoor space. We're looking for something safe and friendly within walking distance of shops/restaurants/transport.
Budget is around $600 - 800 per month.
Please let me know if you have anything available or are interested to share.
Thanks, Jo

Hi Jo, are you open to sharing? There is absolutely beautiful three floor home in the old airport for sure plenty of rests, supermarket nearby. But you would be sharing it with two 2-4 professional people including myself. The cost is 1000 USD per month normally it is rented 70-80 as bed and breakfast when for short terms and you seem to be needing it for about 6 months? Let me know if you want to know more, and if you like to see the house. For sure you would love the home, as it has beautiful balcony, very huge garden and area. And it is compound neighborhood. I will send you my phone if you like to know more about the home.

Yes, you can see the place at 1p but only if you confirmed before that so that I am available to answer questions and show the around. have pleasant day.The is close to AU or very close to the Canadian Embassy.

Hey Jo,

Hi Mathias,
I'm afraid we've now found somewhere and have moved in already, but as you'll see from this thread, there are lots of properties available! We found it best to get here first, stay in a guesthouse for a week or so and then you can get an idea for where you'd like to live. You'll generally find somewhere through a broker; there are lots of notes for places to rent in cafes, forums etc.
Good luck with the move,
Jo

Hi Jo. I'm Caroline from the U.S. It's complicated because I'm not the person seeking the home in or near Addis, but can you help me? It seems, from initial date of your convos, you've been there almost 10 years. Anyway, my brother-in-law and their family is being (pushed) out of their Akaki area home. Not stating names, but landlord wants them out in a couple months clearly to rent at a higher rate to someone else. Anyway both the mom and dad have jobs as educators, and been there a long time. Need something economical(2 or 3 people), and near that area, for school system on that side of Addis. Do you know of anything outside the city? Or even if inside Addis, near Akaki area, because of their work? I know it's an unusual question, please, but I thought you might know. 🙏 Good and kind family. Please let me know if you can. Thank you.
