My Paphos Apartment Tour (Rent in Cyprus)

[@charlieclark9757]

Looking at moving to Cyprus this year and came across your channel, I find the content very refreshing! Keep it up bro 🔥

[@Rico]

Very cool, thanks! 🔥

[@BellaBoutique-r6j]

Looking to move next year to Cyprus I fell in love with Cyprus after visiting twice and your channel is the most amazing thing I've ever came across for this haha and just fun to watch you in general, can't wait to move already and hopefully bump into you 😅❤ keep up the amazing and relaxing content

[@joyoffilming9500]

Hi Rico, first, a Happy New Year - and may all your wishes and desires come true! This was one of the most emotionally attracting 'room tour' seen for quite a while - because of your gratitude and sharing with us your personal emotions that you have with this appartment. I like your 'you can get anywhere' attitude so much!

[@Rico]

Thank you so much for this comment! This was the goal with this video, and I'm happy that I could share my true feelings over the camera. I appreciate feedback like this a lot, and it motivates me very much. I'm very happy about the feedback. :)

[@thinkdiazz]

The kitchen is a winner bro! Well done!

[@Rico]

Thanks, Diaz, yeah, it's so big compared to the old one! Welcome to Cyprus!😊

[@soulfate2]

You're an Inspiration bro! living the dream! in real!

[@Rico]

Thanks so much for watching the video! All the best to you in NZ.😊

[@soulfate2]

@@Rico many thanks! Hope it’s going fantastic there!

[@nikbiz]

Best cafe in town. I chill here almost daily 😀

[@Rico]

Then we will see each other soon!

[@christinamichael2043]

I just love it Rico,enjoy it all ❤️Xx

Thank you Christina!

[@Kingly-meh]

You are an absolute inspiration! Thank you for all that you put out!

You a Real G Rico!

[@rubenveres2403]

Beautiful apartment Rico, congratulations and thanks for sharing! Looking forward to your next video 😁

[@Rico]

Hey Ruben, thanks a lot for your comment. Makes me happy and see you in the next video!😊

[@robertkonarskis4206]

This is a very nice, informative and honest video, thank you Rico! And enjoy the new apartment (:

[@isolatedmountain]

I love watching your videos. You have it pretty good there! I am up here in Finland where it is freezing ass cold this time of the year and wishing I was down there too.

[@Rico]

Hey, thanks for your comment. Sunny greetings to Finland, happy to hear people watch my videos there!☀

[@andrewslifestyle2289]

Love the Apartment Ricco. Also the price is good for a place like yours. Agree with you on stuff! Nice to have someone else’s furniture and appliances and be free to move around. I had a big house in California and when I sold it, I had lots of baggage to unload. Storage was expensive every month Where are you traveling to? Nice vlog and I like your drone segments

[@Rico]

Thank you very much, Andrew! Owning only the essential really gives me a free feeling. But I can imagine later in life when I know where I will "retire" someday, that I want to own the things, to feel "safer". I don't have concrete travel plans yet, but when I do, I'll update you here with a video for sure. For now, I'm staying home and be working during the winter.🙂

[@RamblingRamul]

Wtf that rent is cheap af! My appartment in Denmark is like 1500 and a bit smaller and no pool. What am I doing still living here? March 7 and it’s snowing outside…

[@Rico]

Haha, the same in Germany. That's exactly one of the reasons why I moved to Cyprus. For 1.5k you can find houses here!

[@alexanderschumacher1986]

Just subscribed! Keep going man, i find your videos inspirational. Cheers from sweden 😊

[@Rico]

Thank you very much for the comment. Very motivational for me as well. Greetings to Sweden, I know many people that moved to CY from there.😊

[@georgehimself6612]

Congrats, this is really a nice place! Everything very tastefully done.

[@Rico]

Thanks, George! I like tasty things.😊

[@4latvia]

Hi Niko, nice video, thanks for sharing. Would you please share where to buy/order a table like that in Cyprus?

[@Rico]

Hey there! Thanks for the comment. I bought it from Amazon. :)

[@abdou-co9kb]

Nice video! Do you still live there and maybe know if there are more apartments available? Looks really nice! How did you find it?

[@nurturefx3456]

Congratulations Rico, its a beautiful apartment

[@Rico]

Thank you!!🙂

[@SuperstarA1990]

Congratz, All the best in this year and in the future!

[@Rico]

Thanks, same to you Anton!

[@가자-u7n]

Congratulation on your new apartment. It's wonderful. I am from South Korea and have lived with my family in Kissonerga for about 3 months. Your video has been so helpful before I came here and so far. I really appreciate it. I hope I can run into you on the street one day. I'll buy you a coffee.

[@Rico]

Thanks so much for your kind comment. Wow, bold decision to move all the way to Cyprus! Very happy you like it so far. I'm sure you'll see me one day running around Paphos, haha, come and talk to me!😊

[@emilfaschang7176]

Good that daddy is home to water the plants 😂 congrats on the new apartment brother, will come visit soon

[@Rico]

The jokes came out spontaneously, and I just left them in the video, so it's real.😂😊 Amazing, can't wait to hang out with you in Paphos!

[@tomtocz7284]

Nice digs Rico ! Congratulations !! The apartment is nice and spacious. Love the greenery all around. Awesome pool and a nice gym. Although, the gym could use some giant mirrors and a squat rack (or at least a Smith Machine) to be able to do some proper squats. Congrats and wish you continued success !

[@Rico]

Thanks Tom, yes, the green is one of the highlights. For the gym, I'm just happy that I don't need to drive to the gym, which is a huge Plus as well, haha!

[@megasc0rcher]

Now I miss Cyprus, nice setup dude. Keep going!

[@Rico]

Thank you very much!🙂

[@lifemuchmore]

Congrats zum neuen Appartement Rico - absolut verdient!🙌Sieht super schön aus! Bis bald auf ´nen Coffee in Zypern!

[@Rico]

Danke. Absolut, sehr gerne. :)

Watching it now! We just got an apartment in Chloraka 🤩

[@Rico]

Amazing, congratulations!🙂

[@KevinHilding]

@@Rico big thanks! 😁

[@adambilisic3718]

Very nice apartment. Looks relaxing with good vibes! Enjoy mate!

[@Rico]

Thank you, Adam, nice to see you here! Appreciate it, hope you're enjoying your time.😊

[@sharonk5623]

Hi Rico! Are there any sites that you recommend for renting houses in Cyprus? So i can get a better understanding of what is available at the moment! Thanks in advance!

[@Rico]

Hey Sharon, I have two separate videos about Cyprus properties. One for renting and one for purchasing. I talk about everything you need to know in those videos, such as sites. Feel free to check them out on my channel. All the best!

[@realtalk1934]

And again a really great video Rico! I wonder because in my opinion, i think 1000€ for this appartment is really not expensive! I´m looking now for a appartment to rent longterm in paphos and now its really difficult to find such a nice appartment for a cheap price like this! How you get it? With connections?

[@andreasmoor4969]

Hey Rico, ich freu mich sehr für dich! 🙏 Das Apartment scheint alles zu haben was man für einen glücklichen Tag braucht. Finde super, dass du morgens eine Runde Meditation sitzt, eine der tollsten Praktiken für Ausgewogenheit und Produktivität. Wünsche dir eine gute Zeit. Mögest du gesund, glücklich und frei sein von Leiden. 🙏

[@Rico]

Danke für deinen netten Kommentar, Andreas! Die Meditation begleitet mich schon seit Jahren, und ich weiß, dass sie einer der Gründe für meine stetige gute Laune und Positivität ist. Liebe Grüße nach Berlin!

[@ronyzmiri]

Great video as we are used to... Next time Cafe Nero try to park closer to the sidewalk... You mention several times "we" during the video. Would you tell us more who are "we"?))) Anyway, enjoy the Universal area of Paphos and let us all have a great 2023!

[@Rico]

Thanks, Rony. Yes, this is a video in the style of the older ones. Haha, my girlfriend also said I should park closer to the sidewalk, but I scratched my tires once, and I'm scared since then, I need to get used to it. 😀 And with "we" I mean my girl and me. All the best to you for 2023 as well!😊

[@ronyzmiri]

@@Rico Thanks mate)))

[@ArieSchwartzman]

Very nice apartment for the price Rico. I hope it will be a wonderful and comfortable home for you.

[@Rico]

Thank you very much for the nice words, Arie. I wish you a great start into 2023!

[@Purnham]

Hi, nice Rico! I ve been just moved from mallorca to paphos and rented an apartement , 2 bedroom.. 1250, very nice views on Tomb of kings..... The prices are high... But the place is good, in what place is yours?? Yeroskipou? Iam curious because its good price 😊

[@mrvgrigoras]

How did you find it? Looking to have an idea before making my decision 👌

[@Rico]

Hey there! Welcome to Cyprus! Yours sounds good as well, especially the location is very good. Mine is located in Universal. About 15 minutes walking from the Harbor.

[@Purnham]

@@mrvgrigoras marketplace

[@Purnham]

@@Rico yes really we ve just arrive and the location it seemed to us so good and very quiet but not too isolated, althought the price litle over our expectations(1000), finally we decided to rent, thanks,

[@Rico]

@@Purnham You are welcome, all the best to you! 😊

[@b4bmm]

Well done bro.

[@Rico]

Thanks! :)

[@carolene-meli-ghostwriter]

i'm in this vlog. haha. walking across the road at 0:50. so funny!

[@Rico]

Carolene, that is indeed super funny and random! Haha, did you realize it was me?

[@blktauna]

lol all that for 1000euro!!! awesome. In Manhattan you might get a 1/3 share on a 2 bedroom, maybe. The new place looks great, Happy New Year!

[@Rico]

Happy new year to you too, thanks! Right, in relation to the US it's an amazing deal. However, if you think about it, 2 years ago, this would be approx. 600€. All the best to you!

[@blktauna]

@@Rico I understand. But you and others showing us how wonderful it is there... Well the landlords are getting wise ;-D I am hoping to be there myself in a few years. It's so beautiful there!

[@Rico]

@@blktauna Absolutely, the supply and demand gets out of hand here recently. Many people want to move here, but, well, it takes time to build properties, so landlords take advantage and up the prices. And in Cyprus there is no such thing as a limit on how much you can increase prices.

[@F_Yale]

Any idea about the quality of housing in Larnaca? I'll be moving there in March. Your Paphos apartment looks lovely.

[@Rico]

Thank you very much. I don't spend much time in Larnaca, just once every few months, so I don't know the real estate market well there, but if you decide to move to Paphos, I can definitely assist you here! All the best.

[@danielsar5389]

Your house is amazing and your videos are amazing as well. You have a great personality and we all love it. May all your wishes come true. We have already spoken on IG and I appreciate all the info you share with the community. ❤

[@Rico]

Thank you so much for the kind words, I appreciate it very much. All the best to you!🙏

insane posture

[@MrDynamicMedia]

Rico what a perfect apartment that would be perfect for me! Like you said you have everything you need! remember what Tylers said in fight club the things you own end up owning you!

[@Rico]

Hey! Great reference, yes, I feel that quote a lot at the moment.

[@MrDynamicMedia]

@@Rico yep me to!

[@MrDynamicMedia]

Hi Rico, I been looking at rent and long term rentals and it seems they they have shot right up is they about right? I would need a min of a 2 bed? If they have be greta to see an update on rental prices in Cyprus??

[@Rico]

Hey, yes, rent is currently increasing very much. I'm uploading a video on that topic with my best tips soon.

[@MrDynamicMedia]

@@Rico Thank you for coming back to me I cant wait to see it! I am coming to Cyprus in September

[@thesunisup_]

Did you find this apartment on Bazaraki? I know Limassol is more expensive than Paphos in general but I can't even find a studio for 1k, let alone a three-bedroom apartment

[@Rico]

I found it on the FB Marketplace, just as I explain in my video "How to find cheap houses to rent". :)

[@velourialamour]

Hi Rico!! We are digital nomads that have been traveling for 5 years now, and your vibrant videos inspired us to visit Cyprus! We just arrived in Larnaca late last night… and the situation is less than idyllic 🙈 We are thinking of renting a car and driving to Paphos next week, but are wondering if many places there will be closed for the season - or under construction, like the Paphos Marina? Just wondering if there are more things to do in Paphos, prettier sights to see, more delicious food options, and a quieter atmosphere than in Larnaca 🤞

[@Rico]

Hey there! Welcome to the island, and glad to hear that you visited it. You surely have a lot of experiences to compare with, haha! At the moment, we do have the off-season, meaning, it's colder, less people and the people that are here prefer to stay at home. It will be very similar in Paphos, but you can try out Limassol. It's the biggest city and there are always restaurants to visit. With restaurants, you're well covered in any city here, we got so many good options for food! Enjoy your stay.🙂

[@velourialamour]

@@Rico thanks Rico! If / when we make it to Paphos, perhaps we could meet up for a coffee or beer. We just came from Portugal where we met @stayclassyvlog and all their friends, and it was such a wonderful experience getting to hang with so many like-minded individuals full of rich stories and exciting experiences 🥰 Always happy to meet fellow travelers on our adventures! Now… the biggest hurdle to overcome is… driving on the left side of the road 😱

[@Rico]

@@velourialamour That's cool! First time driving on the left side? I got used to it pretty quick, haha!

[@velourialamour]

@@Rico yup! Well, I’m not going to be driving - my husband will. I’ll be too preoccupied not getting car sick - I have the tummy of a toddler 😵‍💫 lol! Oh, fun fact about us: I have a husband and a wife! We 3 all live together and travel together and have been in a relationship for nearly 13 years. A real life Ménage à Trois, or, as I like to say, Voyage à Trois ;)

[@Rico]

@@velourialamour I'm also always driving, and everyone feels safe with me.😁 Well, that is indeed a fun fact. Interesting, haha, send me a DM on IG if you want. Have a nice day and good drives!

[@JEDAM75]

Hi Rico, what's the brand and model of your drone?

[@Rico]

Hey, it's the Mini 3 Pro by DJI. It's the Mini version with Active Tracking. Weighs less than 250g, so it's also allowed in Europe.

[@italianiperu7919]

Hi Rico, I'm Italian and soon will came there

[@Dream4Design]

You got very good apartment, especially price!

[@Rico]

Thank you my friend, yes I'm very happy with it.

[@joyoffilming9500]

Hi Rico, I would have a question for you: we are planning to move to Cyprus this year. Would it make a huge difference to come over to search for a nice rental house either during April or May? Some say, the further down into summer vacation season the fewer the rental offers. Your advice is highly appreciated.

[@Rico]

Hey there! Renting a property, in general, is very hard at the moment. You will need to spend a few days here before you will find the right property for the right price. And in April / May it will be definitely even harder than now. Also depends on the location, the more central, the higher the demand. Hope this is not too pessimistic, and I hope I could help. All the best for you guys, and happy to have you here soon!

[@joyoffilming9500]

@@Rico Hi Rico, thanks a lot for your insights - highly appreciated. We're thinking of the area around Paphos - not that close to the centre. We will need a car anyway. We will get in touch with you anyway once we're there - saw your business home page yesterday - very impressive!

[@Rico]

Thanks G

[@galkristofhun]

Hello Rico! What do you think, what is the main reason for the price increase? Also, is this true for all Cyprus or mainly just about Paphos?

[@Rico]

Hey there! The reason is supply and demand. We have much more demand than supply in Cyprus at the moment. Many people moving here and not enough properties. Everything gets rented out super fast. I'll make a video about it soon and what my tips are.

[@oleggrigorev6322]

Hi Ricco, How do you find this fantastic apartment for such a reasonable price? I've been searching Facebook marketplace for a month and didn't find anything like this. Do you have any friends who rent one-bedroom apartment? Because I'm moving to Cyprus this Wednesday and I need long-term rent.

[@Rico]

Hey Oleg! I found it on the FB marketplace just as I describe in my Video "How to rent cheap houses in Cyprus". I found it in 1 week. I was the first one to look at it, and took it immediately, even though the agents had 8 other people that wanted to look at it. You need to be very fast! All the best to you and welcome to Cyprus soon!😊

[@Greg-du3fe]

Congrats. What neighborhood it is

[@Rico]

Thanks! It's Universal area in Paphos. Very central.

[@Rico]

Thanks, I live in Paphos city centre since 1 year. :)

[@marcusstrada]

So nice! Congrats! so you went from a 470 euros rent to 1k (much better place of course), but you no longer can find a house for less than 600-700 in Paphos, that’s what I found out. Am I right?

[@Rico]

Thank you so much. Yes, exactly! I remember when I moved to Paphos, I could find houses for 700€ (obviously older buildings, but still) but now, nothing. And yes, I pay twice the rent now, but I feel much better in this modern apartment, and I'm sure I will be more productive here as well! Thanks for watching the videos. 🙏😊
