An appartment not coming with a fully furnished kitchen is a relatively new habit on the real estate market. There was never a legal obligation for landlords to provide kitchen furniture but they did it anyway. It became common over the last ten years or so. Had you chosen appartment nr.4 we would have been distant neighbours. Love the 19th district very much, it´s so much more calm and quieter than the inner districts. Have a wonderful time in your new home and welcome to Austria.

Her husband works for the UN which means they get a generous housing allowance so they are pretty much rent free... I live in Vienna and these rents are very high and almost exclusively for diplomats, UN staffers, etc. When locals live in these apartments they have mostly inherited them from their families. So, yes, cost is relative, particularly when your rent and utilities are paid for by your employer.

@TheGlambassador 29 күн бұрын

@@user-cs3vb6ks2v our rent is absolutely not covered by a stipend, it helps a little bit it doesn’t cover it. And we get no allowance for utilities. Can we please stop making assumptions on people finances? Yes my husband and I both have an income and we don’t have children.

Belated congratulation on your appartment! As a viennese I can say you chose wisely - location trumps wall decor. The 19th district is 🥰. You are in a lovely part of town close to the vineyards and vienna woods, perfect for taking walks with the dogs, but still close enough to the city center. And a bit of green outside the window is just good for one's soul, isn't it?

These apartments are incredible! And it's so nice to see they're all renovated (which is great so you won't be dealing with old pipes and electrical wiring, right?) but they still preserved the beautiful old details that give them personality! The entrances to the buildings made me drool. I'd feel so fancy coming in lol, like I was in a movie

Thanks for your “concern”. Water is included and our electricity bill is no higher than what we’d been paying in our last two homes, so we’re good.

@JaZmine147 Ай бұрын

@@TheGlambassador I was talking heating not electricity. But okay. It's not a "concern" since I don't have to pay your bills. Your husband obviously earns enough to provide you with this lifestyle. Do a one year update review on how much the apartment really costs you though so people don't think it's just the sum you announced in this video.

@TheGlambassador Ай бұрын

@@JaZmine147 I don't need to provide a financial statement and share my living costs to anyone. We were very aware of the cost of living here in Vienna, we did a lot of research and we are incredibly happy with our decision to move here. We aren't young and naive people, we've moved a lot in our lifetime and know how to budget and plan for the things we want in our life. I don't know what your point is to all of this, maybe some sort of attempt at a "gotcha" moment, I don't know, but it's not working. Our electricity includes our heating by the way, so again we're doing just fine. Our living expenses are lower than they have been in the last few locations we've lived in.

These flats are gorgeous. I'm planning to move to Vienna later this year and am looking for a similar feeling on a much smaller scale. I'm a bit confused since everyone's been saying apartment hunting in Vienna is very difficult but I see new ones coming on the market almost daily for what I think are decent prices. Maybe people are talking about real bargains. Anyway I can't wait to start my own hunt soon. Greetings from Cologne.

@TheGlambassador 6 ай бұрын

That’s wonderful that you are moving to Vienna. I think the difficulty with apartments is simply getting a landlord to choose you. I agree, there are many apartments available, but we had difficulty with landlords rejecting our applications. Reasons weren’t given, but I’ve heard many people say that some landlords don’t want to rent to foreigners or non-German speakers. So it sounds like you have an advantage there. I hope your apartment hunt goes well and you find your perfect home. Vienna is a wonderful place and I’m so happy we are here. 🥰

As somebody who grew up in an apartment like this. They are horribly insulated and very high ( up to 3,6m or 12feet) so u heat for half of the room u are not living in. U will be cold all the time. The walls are made in an old way which means drilling a hole will be an adventure....

It’s clear you don’t understand much about Vienna for how most large cities work. This is a very short sighted mindset. Buying a house in Vienna comes with either a multi-million dollar price tag or having to go outside the city, where we’d have to then have the added expense of vehicles. Neither of which we are willing or able to do. We are incredibly happy with our decision and love our life in our rented apartment. Owning a home isn’t always better and people shouldn’t be shamed for renting instead.
