Renting an apartment in the capital is always an expensive pleasure, even in a more or less acceptable house. But war is war, and elite housing continues to be in demand – you cannot forbid living beautifully. What is offered in apartments, the rent of which exceeds several average salaries, the correspondent found out Briefly about.
Luxury house with generatorOf course, we will primarily be talking about penthouses in prestigious districts of Kyiv. Pecherskyi, Holosiivskyi, Shevchenkivskyi districts have a high price range.
For example, a typical penthouse in one of the residential complexes in Pechersk costs 453 thousand. UAH 578 per month (about $11,000). Designer furniture, Italian sanitary ware, “smart home”, parking spaces, two terraces, the total area of the apartment is almost 300 square meters. meters and other elements of a sweet life, of which the generator in the house is highlighted as a separate item.

Who doesn’t like it – welcome to Kovpaka Street, where you can live in a spectacular six-room penthouse for $15,000 a month.
Near Mariinsky Park on Hrushevskyi Street, an apartment of a similar area with four bedrooms will already cost much “cheaper” – $8,000. Even more “budgetary” will be a 274-square-meter apartment on Bogomolets, in which – this is also indicated in a separate line – the lights are not turned off. Such happiness is $9,000 a month. The prices are lower because the houses are not new, they were built in the first half of the 20th century.

A little further from the center – and the prices are already lower. From the mark of 300 thousand UAH and below offer apartments in Shevchenkivskyi and Holosiivskyi districts. For example, a four-room apartment at the intersection of Turgenevska and Pavlivska streets offers not only designer renovations and all other privileges of expensive housing, but also a view of the Vatican embassy. “Only” for 7000 dollars.

Does not sit stillOf course, not all Ukrainians can afford to rent an apartment for 10 thousand. dollars and above per month. Just a calculation: three or four months of such a lease is equal to the cost of a secondary “odnushka” in quiet Uzhhorod. Five months – already in the new buildings of Ivano-Frankivsk.
Budget options, suitable for those who want to rent a comfortable apartment, start in Kyiv from 10,000. UAH (very budget options on the outskirts for the undemanding). The average price for a one-room apartment not in the center is 13-15 thousand. UAH per month. The closer to the center, the more expensive. And prices are rising. So there is a demand.
– There is a demand because many Ukrainians are currently living in a “suspended” state and are ready to jump off at any moment. Go abroad or move to another region, away from shelling, explains an employee of one of the capital’s real estate agencies. – For example, young families cannot buy an apartment, taking out a loan for current Ukrainian salaries is unrealistic. Therefore, they are looking for a place to rent, but they do not want to live in “grandmother’s house”. The market sensitively monitors this and responds to demand by raising prices.
According to our interlocutor, the landlords have now decided to make up for the lost profit in 2022, when they rented apartments to a new wave of immigrants from the east and north of Ukraine at “godly” prices and did not increase the cost much. Almost three years have passed, it is possible to raise the salary, which is happening.
– On the other hand, renting luxury housing is not about Ukrainians. It is about guests from abroad who appreciate comfort and are ready to pay for it: employees of wealthy international companies, businessmen, politicians. There are tenants, despite the exorbitant prices for ordinary Ukrainians. Of course, these are isolated cases, – adds the realtor.
Elite apartments near the metroYou can settle in Kyiv with some comfort in the center, if the budget allows you to spend from 20,000, or better – from 30,000. UAH for a 1-2-room apartment. Depending on the price, the apartments will meet the resident either stuffed to the brim with everything necessary, or almost empty rooms that still need to be filled with furniture and decor. From 50 thousand UAH additional options begin to appear, such as the same generator in the house or directly in the apartment, warm floor, parquet, concierge in the entrance, etc. A nice nuance in an ad for renting apartments for a price of more than $1,000 is the mention of a nearby subway or market.
And if someone suddenly thinks that modern design renovation is all about exquisite simplicity and brevity, then no. Sometimes “unique renovation” is the good old “expensive-a-lot” style. For example, as in the 100-meter-long three-room “stalinka” on Zankovetskaya Street. This kind of “millet-style on minimal” and for $3,500 a month. A bonus is the front entrance from the street.

Instead of a conclusion
Experts of the real estate market suggest that an explosive growth in the rental of elite squares should not be expected in the near future. No matter how much it is necessary to reduce. But the rent of more “friendly” housing in terms of price, most likely, may still rise in the near future. According to them, renting out apartments has started to lose profitability – life is getting more expensive. Owners’ expenses for apartment maintenance are also increasing, tariffs, again, are jumping plus the general instability of the economy. Therefore, the owners raise prices, realizing that the demand for or furnished housing is and will be, especially in the capital.
