Looking for an apartment to rent? Owners may also be interested in details about you

Rents have seen steep declines and increases in recent years. During the time of the coronavirus, the market for short-term accommodation, accommodation for foreigners, female workers and students practically came to a standstill. Suddenly there was a high offer on the market, the apartments were empty, so the owner had to cut the price to occupy the apartment. In 2022, for a change, the demand for rent on the part of Ukrainians increased dramatically, and practically everything was rented out on the market, so the owner could ask for high rents. Currently, the situation is relatively stable, and we will also face the fact that the Germans have to choose between several offers and with the final decision to pay. This was completely unthinkable a year and a half ago: whoever did not decide to live, the apartment ran away, said Petr Bulan from the Century 21 office.

In the future, the owner will build an apartment. Request for rent toti pibv. On the one hand, because today’s young people live in a different way, and before owning an apartment, freedom is the second priority, so they can pamper themselves at any time. And so because any household that would lose its own property will not live up to its age. Even slightly cheaper mortgages did not help much. The owner of the flat can thus dictate to himself, especially in dense localities. Pesto I don’t know how to pester. Even the borrowers can’t bear to worry about housing, especially when it comes to the financial side of things. Pronjem must therefore be set in time. How to do it?

Rental price? It has to be so perfect

The basis will be to set the rental price correctly. It is important to know how much similar apartments in a given location are currently being rented for and how the competition for your apartment is. By overestimating the price, you would be doing a disservice to other apartments, which would remain on the market, explains real estate agent Markta Pvkov from RE/MAX G8 Reality.

It is therefore best to compare offers of similar apartments in the vicinity. Take out the cheapest and most expensive ones and you will find out very quickly how it will be roughly in it. However, it is essential to always compare the fee included with it, Bulan points out. For example, in an apartment with its own boiler, the fees will be very low and the cost of energy will be high, and in contrast, an apartment in a panel house will have a high cost, but in them heat and hot water are sweated. However, the German does not care how accurate the ratio of income and wealth is, he is interested in what his total real investment in housing will be.

An experienced real estate agent can help me set the price. Or you can go through the real estate servers yourself. A calculator would be a useful tool for me. However, it is advisable to go to one of the big services, such as Bezrealitky, which work with this volume of data and current prices, and therefore the information will be more relevant.

Current hires

Generally speaking, prices have risen slightly between years. For example, according to the statistics of RE/MAX G8 Reality, the most expensive rented apartments in Prague are 2+kk apartments with an average size of 55 square meters at a price of around 20,000 crowns per month. Plus fees for consumption and services. The average price of space rent thus comes to 375 crowns per square meter. Vtina, the lessor, used the inflation clause this year and wound it up. The average number of children in the capital is around 8 percent, adds Pvkov.

Similar results are obtained according to the statistics of the Bezrealitky portal. In medium-sized cities, prices reached 260 crowns per square meter. In the Moravian metropolis, the average price is around 280 crowns per square meter, in Pardubice and Krlovhradecky around 222 crowns, in Liberec around 213 crowns. You will find the cheapest rental in the Steck region, where the average is around 180 crowns per square meter.

Of course, it will vary in each city, depending on the location, proximity to public transport, and local amenities. The orientation of the apartment also plays a role, whether it faces the street or the courtyard, whether it has an attic or cellars. Take the condition of the apartment and the whole house.

Be careful with bail

Similar to the rental price, you have to pay a security deposit equal to the specified refundable security deposit. According to the law, I can start it at a maximum of three times the monthly payment to the German. It is up to you to prepare for the fact that for a number of families it will be necessary to pay the costs of the removal, the first one, and that the security deposit is such a high one-time expense that you have a clear economic limit, to Frantiek Bro from the Bezrealitky portal.

People are less likely to accept a one-time deposit. In furnished apartments, i.e. including consumption, and in new buildings, for example, often two-room apartments. In 2018, it was only recently replaced, especially in fully equipped apartments in new buildings. It is so unfortunate that we will meet with the division of the deposit into installments, added Bro.

To whom the apartment owner has priority

A security deposit is due for the landlord. It is an insurance policy for him in case there is a code in the apartment, or if you are not covered by it. The German problem is the death of every apartment owner who decides to put it on the housing market. Therefore, potential printers will always try as much as possible to eliminate the impact. Just how?

Urit leave enough time to get confused. It is not necessary to make an agreement at the first visit. Warn the client that you can go on further visits, then discuss their results with the family and then inform them, Petr Bulan advises apartment owners. But try to do this as quickly as possible, because the tenant will not wait outside and will look for other leases. Then it could happen, the EU will find another alternative and I won’t have the apartment.

To make a decision, the lessor will want to get as much information as possible about the many future residents of the apartment. Ask the client how many people will live in the apartment, from what means they will finance it, if they are employed, where and for how long, two pr tip Bulan. You can find out a lot of information if you ask why it is being downloaded.

Real estate agent Markta Pvkov recommends checking the German in the execution and insolvency register, to find out if he is wanted by the R Police, or if he did not insist on living on the street, and if so, for what reason. So they tried to prove the truth about the employee. References from previous owners help, adds Bro. In other words, whoever passes the view must be prepared for a lot of questions if he wants to fall asleep.

Apartment empty or furnished?

As for these practical issues, each owner must decide how to equip and unfurnish the apartment, in short, how to prepare it. In any case, it pays to paint. And before the tours, set the general calm of the apartment, then breathe a different atmosphere from the space.

When it comes to equipment, there are two types of real estate on the market. Fully equipped, when you only need to bring your personal things. It’s usually in the center of a new building, which is often rented by foreigners paying for work for a certain period of time. Or studio apartments for one, it is so convenient to fully equip them, to Pvkov. Otherwise, only basic equipment is standard, including a kitchen line with appliances, a built-in cupboard in the pantry and shelves in the commode. The rest is with the Germans.
