Apartment Hunting - Yerevan, Armenia

We visited several apartments in Yerevan between $500-$1000 a month and finally settled on the one we liked most

[@Yerevanwithme]

I also just relocated to Armenia and I love it ❤️🇦🇲

[@CVTom617]

Why did you go?

[@ArmenianGojo]

@@CVTom617probably because she’s Armenian, or the country is great for living

[@Yerevanwithme]

I’ve lived in Iran and France, but for now I decided to move to Armenia for its unique blend of Europe and Asia. And people are really kind hearted.

[@georgehagop6718]

Hello sorry for the comment you mention “leaving? Going” or “living? Staying in a place?” I know English spelling is sometimes confusing but one must be certain about spelling before posting a comment. Why? Because readers might think that all Armenians don’t know how to spell. Sorry again and take care.

[@KH-it7nz]

@@georgehagop6718 I speak English and I understand what he meant move to Armenia, Why is difficult for you to get it?

[@Prestige21-j1l]

@@georgehagop6718 First off, it’s not his native language. Second, if you know English well, then you also need to pay attention to your punctuation. There is a comma after “hello” and before “but.” Also, it’s not “mention” but “mentioned.” Educate yourself first before calling out others. Take care and be kind.

[@williamagee3437]

Thanks for sharing your very unique experience moving together to a third country. Please keep us updated on your progress and integration into Armenian society! (A suggestion: Don't just hang out with ex-pats.) Soon your step-son will be translating for you I bet 😉.

Would love to see more videos from you guys. Love the content. I won a green card and moved from Armenia in 2009. Now in USA. Glad to see the other way around. I hope you like the country. We may not have the best economy but people are kind and you will be welcome there. 🇦🇲 ❤️ 🇺🇸

[@DavidBrowski]

WOW!!! That's not bad for a brand new place of that size!!!!! You ain't gonna find a brand new apartment for that price anywhere in the U.S that's for sure!!!! And the fact that it's in town so you probably don't need a car is another added bonus. NICE PICK!!!!

[@AmericaninArmenia]

@@DavidBrowski Correct! We walk most places. 5 minute walk to grocery. And as cheap as taxis are we usually get one to come back home with lots of bags

@@JOHNDOLMAYAN99 language has been difficult at times. Google translate is a must. Thankfully we can usually find someone wherever we go that speaks some English

[@HopefulInterventions]

As an Armenian, I found it funny that 3-4 guys showed up to show one apartment. So Armenian!! 🤣 But it’s because they were hanging out together already. 😅

Armenia your going to fits easily,organic natural life , specially in the small cities or villages, soon when you start to live your going to learn more where to live ,prices,don’t worry it’s a safe country,

[@AM-gm3zx]

Don't be intimidated, lot of Armenian guys like to hang with friends even when doing business or during business hours. They didn't show up to intimate you, they were most likely just hanging together.

[@ednaantonian8369]

Please show us towns and walking trails outside of Yerevan. Have you been to Areni, the original wine caves?

[@Apjan08]

I like your family and channel. Good luck. Just make a couple of Armenian friends and all of your possible problems will be solved immediately.

[@reneeb8347]

Glad you’re enjoying Armenia. It’s an unusual choice. The culture is very inclusive. Have you studied any of Armenian culture or language?

@@rafaelmuradyan2477 I hope you are safe in LA, sounds like a difficult place to be right now. At least you know you can always come back to Armenia.

[@lika_cola]

Enjoy Armenia. About pronunciation, do you remember Tsaghik from the Avatar? I am 99% sure they named her in Armenian as it means flower. So the plase is called "the gorge of flowers" - Tsakhkadzor - or Cakhkadzor. So great to see videos like this ❤

[@reapersfv818]

Abovyan is the best city. You are 15 minutes out of Yerevan. Don’t have the big city crowds but are very close by.

[@reapersfv818]

Plus the cost of apartments.

[@AmericaninArmenia]

@@reapersfv818 we will definitely take a look in Abvoyan. Thanks for the suggestion

[@mr.zeitmaschine6878]

Tsakhadzor is a resort town and summers and winters are good money making seasons. If you have anything to do with Yerevan it’s going to be difficult. If you need to buy a car, you should get a Niva if you are going to live in Tsakhadzor. Easier to fix and very reliable and for that area it is the best. Don’t be intimidated with many men showing up together. They probably were hanging out and decided to come together. Armenian men are always together hanging out. It’s like the old Italian culture you see in movies without the mafia part.

[@emma966]

Dear people in the comments, if you think about moving to Armenia, here is a piece of advice if you need one. Economy of Armenia is actually horrible. Make sure you have stable income from outside, because salaries there are very low and it's actually impossible to survive even with double income. So if you have a business in US or work remotely, I am more than sure you can have a beautiful and comfortable life in Armenia. Otherwise, hoping to find a job there and live with that salary will be tricky.

[@AmericaninArmenia]

@@emma966 I agree. Not sure what salaries are here, but probably quite low.

[@mordororc3082]

@@AmericaninArmeniaif it’s a entry/mid level job we’re looking at $200 a month. Wife used to work at post office that’s how much she made. On its own it’s very low. You probably need around $1500 and up if you’re in Yerevan including rent more or less. Outside job is a must unless you work in the US embassy or tech jobs. The good thing is most people own homes and don’t rent. Outside of Yerevan almost all own their own homes but in rural places they lack quality of life stuff and some don’t even have heating in winters. I can go more in detail later if you like.

[@aniatoyan]

Welcome!

[@pargevkarapetyan2251]

One more thing, if your job will be connected whit internet living in Armenia will be much more easy .Working in some regular jobs in Armenia and living will be verry challenging financially.

[@aidaovasapyan9951]

Heloo from California,welcome to Armenia, great country to live and raise the children,little advice,never by or rend high-rise buildings,3,4,5th flore building is Mach better and be careful real estate scammer, make sure they not give you high prices, and fake documents, Gyumri is a nice place to live ,train from Erevan to Gyumri 3 hours it’s better then car 🚗, hope you like to live in Armenia 🇦🇲 it has lots of good things,

[@svetlanas7750]

Hi guys, you can find a reasonably proced apartment away from the center of Yerevan. For example you can look at Malatia Sebastia, Avan, or Zeytun area. Your wife has a son and he looks like he might go to school soon, so you should consider which school he will go to.

Armenia is the safest country

[@davo5577]

Where did you live in US?

[@theforgottenorg]

Among 'old school' Armenians, it's a combination of having translators not just for language but for cultural differences. The fact that a non-Armenian language speaker is interested would lead to the 4 people being there. I'm sure if I were there, as an Armenian who doesn't speak Eastern Armenian and coming from the US, they would do the same. Armenians, when it comes to business, can be very 'hands on' type and have a hard time delegating.

[@imperatorarmenator]

Hey bud. I would like to do a small interview video with you. You’re in a unique position since a lot of Armenians including me live in USA not vise versa* If you’re interested, let me know. I think it would be beneficial for both of our channels.

You can buy an apartment at around 100 to 120k if you are not looking for a brand new build. We looked and these are more expensive. We ended up buying an older apartment in a pretty well maintained building.

[@TigranKheranyan-c1s]

I live in Armenia and would like to have American citizenship so that I can live in the United States. Armenia has a mandatory 2-year military service for men, which is very dangerous, considering the military conflicts that occur here a lot. I think it is very wrong to force people to do military service. Also, the Armenian passport is weak, and it is difficult to visit other countries with it.

[@learnit2715]

$1.000 is nothing for that type of apartment. Enjoy it.

@@IosifDurgalian a lot of things. I feel like the west is falling apart, America and most of Europe. The Christian culture, cost of living and ease of getting visa for my wife and step son all played big factors.

[@AmericaninArmenia]

@ thank you! Since this is our first time in Yerevan we decided to rent. We may decide to buy if we find a place we love, but it takes time to find out what area we want to be in. I’m from Maine, like to have space, and don’t mind driving 20 minutes to town. So Abovyan may be in our future.

[@grish702]

My good friend from Maine now he’s leaving in Las Vegas hes name is Justin! And don’t forget taxi is so cheap u don’t even need a car

[@theforgottenorg]

@@AmericaninArmenia The sad thing about the US specifically is that it seems bad all over. California, NY/NJ, Texas. The local, state, and Federal Governments don't think long term. Churches don't do enough to help the poor, sick, or those in prison. We are told to respect pronouns and created gender more than treating each other as good humans. We work like dogs and our dollar gets us less and less. I hope you take advantage of opportunities and find success there, and inspire more people like myself to move there- even if its in retirement. God bless.

[@theforgottenorg]

@@AmericaninArmenia Maine? You'll be fine in the winters. I'm told the summers can be hot, which your spouse might appreciate. Something for both of you! It used to be reported that power outages were still a thing in Yerevan. Is this still the case?
