Students will never be able to purchase an apartment in such a location in Moscow. The apartment is good for singles with a good salary. But I don't understand why anyone would buy an apartment that is only suitable for singles, do they plan to stay single forever?

You would probably spill water all over the washing machine with that small sink. Not really suitable for anything, except washing hands. If you want to wash your face with cleaning product you'll have a mess to clean afterwords. It looks nice before you actually live there. It's more suitable to be rented per night like a hotel. For everyday living it would be difficult to live there.

[@AzariasTM]

Well, if you live alone, perhaps a young couple at the beginning of their journey or a student, then the studio is quite suitable for living. And if you already have a family and a child, then of course you already need a full-fledged apartment.

​@@elliotgirl3921 You just need to cook food for two right away 😂 I agree with you, but some couples in Russia actually live in studios, since it is cheaper and more affordable housing than buying a large apartment at once.

[@SeniorTrouble]

These 3 studio apartments were probably purchased to be rented out to tourists and other people coming to the city. This kind of investment is common here, especially in large tourist cities such as Moscow, Sochi, St. Petersburg.

[@user-ne9rx8xi9y]

Yes, so-called "studios" in new buildings can no longer be less than 28 square meters. The housing inspectorate should monitor all changes made by the owners to the redevelopment of the apartment, but in practice the owners may not allow the inspection into the apartment! Therefore, in real life, almost no one will forbid making 10 apartments with an area of 6 square meters out of a three-room apartment with an area of 60 square meters! In this case, there is a serious violation of fire safety, three doors should not be in this way! If the fire inspector sees this video, the owner will have serious problems!

Главное, чтобы соседи тихие были, не бухари, не меломаны, не глухие киноманы и не любители громкого секса. А то обычно у таких квартир тонкие стены, слышно кашель, громкое чихание и т.д. Воспитанные и доброжелательные соседи это находка в наши дни. А то пока со всеми не переругаешься, невозможно установить приемлемое проживание. Я сам живу в студии с тонкими стенами. На одних съемщиков наорал сквозь стену, когда музыку врубили в 00:45 и они тихо съехали. С новыми въехавшими тоже поговорить пришлось и с соседями с другой стены тоже договорились. Я так не люблю конфликтов, но приходилось рамсить. А так, хороших нешумных соседей обнимал бы каждое утро вместе с приветствием и ходил бы к ним взаимно на чай. Почему-то люди перестали ценить добрососедство.

You would never see this in the US. The apartments looked pretty nice, but I don't think I could live in such a tiny place. It looks more like a hotel room. But if the price was right, I might make it work with the help of a Murphy bed. I prefer to have my sleeping area separate from the rest of the apartment. I guess if was cheap enough, I could still afford a dacha in a village and have that to stretch my legs. So, what is the price for these apartments?

В кухне помещается все необходимое -плита с вытяжкой, холодильник с большой морозилкой, микроволновка, стол и даже небольшой диванчик, в санузле обязательно стиральная машина. В прихожей не только шкаф для одежды, но и место для хранения куда можно убрать пылесос, швабру с ведром и т.д). Все вместе метров 37-40. На этаже 4 квартиры с общим холлом. Такое жилье для одного человека считаю самым подходящим. Для студента также важна близость метро, для пожилого недорогие магазины и аптеки в шаговой доступности.😊

[@learning7140]

They look like hotel rooms. There's absolutely no storage space, even for basic things like many clothes, bed linen, towels, books, suitcases, etc, so it's convenient only for someone who wants to stay there for a short time, not for someone who wants to live there for years. Two improvements the owner could make to free up space (I've lived for years in 12-18 sq meters, so I know what I'm talking about) : 1) The bed takes up too much space. The bed mattress could be put on a loft so the space under the bed would be freed. 2) The fridge is too big for 1 person, he could have installed a much smaller fridge (around the size of the cupboards under the sink) and free the entire space above the fridge in order to place the microwave oven and above it have one more cupboard next to the others.

@@SwissCHer у меня, кстати друзья из Германии в гости приедут зимой в декабре, они живут в Швейцарии сейчас. Мы с ними поедем в Новосибирск. Я достраиваю свой двухэтажный дом близ Новосибирска , там рядом есть мирового уровня зимний курорт Шерегеш и много курортных зон. Там есть мои родственники и я там иногда бываю). Еще хочу купить квартиру близ Урала в крупном городе и там тоже много зон отдыха, месяц два там пожить неплохо . А так в основном я живу около Москвы, чтобы быстро можно было приехать в Москву.

Thank you Yiry.

I've seen 9 sq meter apartments in Paris for sale. The first apartment I rented in Athens was 26 sq meters and it was adorable. For a single person in a European city, small apartments are preferred. I settled for 39 sq meters and I love it 😻

[@michellegunn4115]

URI you make us laugh, thank you for showing us around. What is the weekly rent of these apartments

[@mralxandrosify]

В прошлом году я купил похожую квартиру - студию 18кв.м в 10 минутах пешком от метро и сдаю за 37000р в месяц.

Cool little apartments-got everything you need-wouldn’t mind living in one myself !!

[@cecilianagy3562]

Very cool video.

[@arina61998]

Personaly i don't like full size beds in such small places because they are ' eating' a useful space.

[@TravellingwithRussell]

That's true, they can take up a lot of space.

[@maximvf]

Usually there are all kinds of folding sofas (on the cheaper side) or beds lifting into wall/furniture like rush hour seats in the subway (more expensive).

[@bigbillyz]

Hi Russell thanks for video. Would be really interesting to see new display homes as well like the ones you see in Australia in new estates. Thoughts?

[@robreuler144]

I'm very impressed I like all three, but the one with the small balcony does it for me.

[@adz-ql6kv]

g'day Russel @12:52 if you change your settings on your pocket 3 from 50hz to 60hz (or visa versa depending on your location) the lights won't "flash/flicker'' in buildings and shopping centres on your video. it has to do with the refresh rate of electricity in different various countries.

[@stewartsmith1947]

How are all of these apartments financed ? They are very nice for sure ! Thanks Russell !

[@user-tt9jx5ms1h]

3 doors can't be open at once => fire safety?

You forgot to say what the rent was for each apartment?

the cost of such apartments is about 350-550 dollars per month + utilities, including unlimited Internet - 20-50 dollars

5:08 they have letter boxes for “spam”. Lol. I thought the magic doors were funny. But this is even funnier.

[@TravellingwithRussell]

If I had mentioned in the video the challenge, we had to get them to open, it would be even funnier.

[@Julia-Ylia]

You're being ironic in vain. Notifications from official organizations come only in paper letters, receipts... And spam is very rarely and very little thrown into mailboxes.

[@Shamanica.]

For example, every month children's magazines are delivered to me from the post office in these boxes. Good magazines, with pictures, stories and educational tasks. ) Например, в эти ящики каждый месяц мне доставляют от почты детские журналы. Хорошие журналы, с картинками, историями и развивающими заданиями. )

[@prosquatter]

20m² apartments are common in Europe. They're often called a garconniere (bachelor's pad), although that word might have a certain different meaning in some countries 😂 It's an apartment for singles, not couples. I've never heard of one as small as 15m² though. Mostly people buy them with intention to rent them out. No one plans on being single forever. If your parents are rich, you might get one when you move out, but regular people don't bother buying them. They're too much money for such a small space.
