Welcome to the forum.

Check out the housing section, top of this page for rental offers and costs.

@stumpy - do you actually live in Lisbon?

stumpy

No.

Thought not. Your stock reply of "check this forum under housing" is actually not helpful, as the very, very few listings that do appear there are mostly in the Algarve, so that doesn't help people wanting accommodation in Lisbon, which is currently having a housing crisis.

@bfakhriloo, my advice to you, if it's for a job opportunity, is try to ask your company if they have accommodation, or can assist, because it's a nightmare. And there is such a huge demand that landlords are now charging double your budget for a room!!
