'Hej' & Welcome to Denmark
By now, you’ve found the closest grocery store and figured out the bus route to the city center. Now what? Reality kicks in. You’re in Denmark you don’t have any friends or family close by and you’re probably feeling a little overwhelmed. This is where Homestead comes in. Homestead can answer all your questions and guide you along step by step. Our goal is to give you a good start to settling in to your new neighborhood so you can get on with your daily life and start enjoying Denmark.
Hand held orientation tour
Sometimes it’s overwhelming and little nerve racking going out on your own. Not knowing the area, street names or transport routes. During the 3-hour tour we will discuss all your concerns, answer all your questions and at the same time, give you a much better understanding of Danes and their culture
Settling home visit Q & A’s
Where can I find the closest dry cleaners (“renseri”) Who can help us with window polishing or emptying out rain gutters? What does ‘på beløbet’ mean at the checkout at the grocery store? Why is there so much limescale on my faucet? Homestead offers a 1-hour Q & A session. Prepare your list in advance and Homestead will come to your home and go through your list with you one by one.
Help with translations
Yes, google translate is your best friend right now, but as we all know sometimes the text comes out a little strange. When receiving letters from the bank, commune, healthcare system, which are all in Danish, it’s important to ensure you don’t miss anything important, let us help. We can translate all your documents into your native language
Rental Property Management
Tenant & landlord responsibilities are very different in Denmark from most other countries and Danish landlords have much higher expectations for how to take care of their properties. To ensure you uphold your obligations correctly and in turn receive the majority of your deposit back when you move out, contact us. We have the know how and the experience in the Danish Rental Act to guide you in the right direction. We can also help arrange cleaning, gardening, or whatever else you may need with regards to taking care of your new home.
Spousal Support
Now that you’re here and your partner is probably at work all day, perhaps you want to get out and meet some new people? Homestead can introduce you to numerous Expat International groups and more importantly, local Danish groups. We want you to settle in quicker and with ease. We can even guide you to find a new job.
