Over the past three months, rental prices for apartments in Kharkiv have increased by 25-50%. And most of all the rise in price has affected the most running ones – one-room. Now a 30-meter “roof over your head” will have to give an average of $ 250-300 per month, for a two-room – $ 300-400. Almost the same money cost three rooms flats.

There is an active migration of young people from nearby villages to Kharkov, the factor that Kharkov is a student city also plays a role: parents do not want their children to live in hostels and help them to rent apartments. Plus – Kharkiv is a dynamically developing city with a million population, many visitors, and there are few hotels and they are expensive.

If people who borrowed an apartment on credit pay about $ 600 a month for it, they estimate that it is necessary to take it for about half the price – $ 300.

There is a chance that we will end the year with a confident $ 300 for renting a one-room apartment.

At the same time, there is an opinion that the price growth may stop by summer.

Perhaps, even a little cheaper apartments. So, those who do not “burn”, we can advise you to wait. By the summer students will leave, and the sentence will increase sharply. If public utilities do not rise, then the price will drop somewhere by 10%. But every increase in utility tariffs, for example, by 10%, leads to a 20% jump in prices for rented apartments.

It is necessary to take into account the moment that it is beneficial for the landlord to keep the apartment idle: it is better for him to get a little less, but to rent an apartment than not to receive anything at all.

Even when you are already renting an apartment, you can try to lower the rent, if the terms of the contract are not met. Or in the rented apartment they found shortcomings, which the landlord did not mention. But, again, all the “ifs” should be spelled out initially in the contract, then it will be easier to achieve the truth. The contract does not need to be certified by a notary, it is enough to sign it to both parties.

Everyone understands that rent is formalized only in exceptional situations, for example, when very expensive apartments are rented out. In the overwhelming majority of cases, the owners of apartments avoid paying taxes. In fact, the whole rental market in Kharkov is illegal. Nevertheless, the question “Newspapers …” on how to protect themselves from possible trouble when renting an apartment, all agencies advised “to pay taxes and sleep peacefully.”

If to speak on the merits, it is worth recalling that when concluding a contract, the owner must necessarily check the passport of the potential tenant. It is not out of place to ask not only his personal, but also working contacts and not be ashamed to immediately call and check whether there really is such an employee at this firm. Unfortunately, this practically exhausts the possibilities to “probe” the tenant.

A tenant can always be advised to ask the future owner to read the documents for possession of the apartment. In this case, you need to have only the owner of the living space. Otherwise, it may turn out that the persons acting on his behalf, even if it was a husband, wife or children, did not even inform him of their intentions, and he will come scandalously to drive out the tenants. This same precautionary measure will help to avoid sublease. It is useful to take an interest in the characteristics of the hosts from neighbors, of course, if it is not about new homes. Be sure to check your phone bills – so you do not have to pay for your predecessors, chatting with New York.
