Renting property without a job when first moving to Netherlands?

Expert Info

Hi guys this is a little worry of mine that I am struggling to find an answer to. My other half has got a place to study for a masters degree in Holland and as such we will be moving there early next year. Here in the UK I know you cannot rent property without an employment reference so I am wondering about the rules in the Netherlands? Clearly I cannot have a reference until I get a job, and it is likely going to be easier to get a job when I am over there? Any help would be greatly appreciated to put my mind at rest. P.s. I am not married so although I suspect as a student my partner gets some relief from these things I doubt I would get the same rights? Thanks again.
