Having been away for a couple of years now, I�d forgotten how outrageous rents in Seoul were�
I�m looking to return on some business� but we�re talking $5000 for a nice 3 bed apartment in a decent area, (Hannam-Dong)� its putting Central London prices to shame, lol� admittedly, there�s some stuff around $2300/month which is liveable providing they strip out all the horrid interiors� but it�s far above the prices I�m seeing in other parts of Asia
But, am I missing a trick? These sites don�t give a key money option which I know will bump up the rental cost� and with them being pretty accessible to foreigners, I�m guessing the establishment is keen to charge us special Wayguk prices, lol...
I�d ideally want to be in Seoul, but there�s fantastic apartments in Shanghai for $500/month and a lot of nice places in Beijing for about $1000/month� for the saving I�d rather telecommute from China which would at least put me in the right time zone� can anyone point in the right direction and give me an idea what I�d be able to get for $1,000 - $1,500 per month? |
