Come along with me to tour the upscale neighborhood of Pechersk, which is Kyiv's (Kiev) most prestigious neighborhood. We take a look to see what $68,500 can buy near the subway station, what the supermarket down the street looks like, and we talk to a few local Ukrainians to ask why they actually prefer this district more than the proper city center.

Pechersk IS the center. I know that foreigners prefer to settle in the center, but if you have a limited budget, you really should consider something more distant, but it will be so so much better. Once you see some apartments for the same price, but much larger, in the new buildings, nice corridors, and elevators, no smell, etc. you won’t come back to Pechersk

Johnny, you should also be looking to buy a "dacha" out in the woods or suburbs of Kiev. There are many small cottages on small plots of land which were given to Ukrainian citizens during Soviet times. They are about one-half hour away by car. Also accessible by bus or trolley bus. A plot with cottage will cost anywhere from $ 50,000 to $ 100,000. Many people buy these relatively rundown places and build huge houses on these plots of land. These dachas provide a welcome country respite from bustling city life.
@williamtaylor8782
@williamtaylor8782 2 жыл бұрын
@Сергей Serge No one is talking about a loan. What are you talking about? These dachas were given to workers at large Ukrainian factories during Soviet times. The workers paid NOTHING for these plots of land and built their own small cottages. I did not mention loans at all. That has zero relevance. Ukrainians who received these plots of land for free are now old and dying off. They are selling their plots of land and cottages. What are you talking about? Total nonsense.
@GrungeUA

​ @williamtaylor8782 Those "dacha" is not for free as you maybe expected because in "ussr prison" workers salary is almost nothing and you work like for food and your "free apartment or dacha's need approximately 10-30 years in best scenario (but some don't get anything after whole life)". In normal country's you have salary for buy it.

This type of house is looks like Khrushchevka. Therefore, it is usually located in a very quiet area. But. It have VERY. I mean VERY tiny walls and most importantly construction of the carcass of building very well propagates sound waves of high type of sound, close to vibration. So you hear what you dont wanna hear: fridge vibration, swearing neighbors, crying small children and loud music. Depending on how you prefer.)) And it is also little bit cold in the kitchen at winter when you ve got -10 -15 C outside. Otherwise - it is great!

Have you considered slightly outside of the centre? We have a huge forest across the road and only 15 minutes on the metro from Center. Worth a look at other areas just for the outdoor areas and best bang for your dollar and newer buildings.

There are absolutely no amenities there, zero. you would need to install a Murphy bed system and I would knock down the kitchen wall and remove the door into the living room if allowable (hopefully not be load bearing - good luck getting the plans to that bldg.) kitchen and bath need full renovation as well as flooring, paint and lighting, etc.. Lastly, I feel it is too small.

I like your style of interviewing guys on city streets. Do it more often. It quite means a lot for me to see the city and citizens from the foreigner perspective.

I thought housing was bad in London, but this is another level of bad! I was surprised that the newly built flats are that expensive, but it must be like always about the location.

The girl at 3:45 😍 There seems to be LOADS of really, really pretty young women in Ukraine and practically zero beautiful older ones. It's like they hit a certain age and instantly become frumpy babushkas with five shopping bags and bad knees.

Shopping bags and bad knees are a kind of decoy when you get tired of foreign boys trying to buy you for your youth. Babushka FTW.
