Where to live in Bucharest?

Hi, I own a luxury apartment in the centre of Bucharest (P-ta Lahovary - Gradina Icoanei), fully furnished and equipped, 2 bedrooms, large balcony, 122 sqm. in total. Available from 15 November 2008.  Price: 1750 EURO.   Contact: Sergiu Cara for visits, phone: 0722 236 729 or the owner, Marius Cara, email: cara@eib.org, phone: +40723.313.357 or +352621186537.  Pictures available on request.

Hello

The top Area in the City is Calea Dorobantii - and a small branch road off to the north east called Bellar. Here you will expect to pay 1000 Euro a month for 2 bedroom in standard Ex Com block.

Moving further north outside the city are Banesa rights up to Otopeni. There is a slight reduction in rentals in these areas.

Further to the east is Calea Mosilor - high rentals - but don't quite know why.

A bit lower is Stefan Cel Mare that runs from Dorobantii to Obor (C.Mosilor)

One tip if you are interested in the Dorobantii area - avoid the big estate agents but go to the smaller ones which are based in the actual area.

Selling Buying or Renting in Dorobantii is a little complicated - and a Good LOCAL Agent inportant.

Alternatively, many people are advertising themselves on INternet, and there are also two weekly publications lisiting property for Rent, Sale, or Purchase in Bucharest.

Hope this doesn't confuse you.

Hi David,

I'm also working at Pita Victoria (America House) since July . I am staying in a serviced apartment at Univeritati; It's a good option but... depends on your budget.

hope this helps,
Cheers

If you are looking for an apartament, try this www.anuntul.ro
Usually the rent is between 200-500 euros.

InCity in Calea Dudesti isn't too bad..

Hello, i have been offered a job in bucharest by genpackt company (piperata metro station) and i wish to know which is best location for an apartment rental, i am willing to pay only 200-250 euro monthly for fully furnished apartment.
Please any info will be great.

I'd suggest somewhere on the blue metro line (M2). Neighbourhoods in the south are usually cheaper.
250 Euro/month will get you a studio flat in Tineretului (closer to the centre, quite a decent neighbourhood for the price and close to a large park). Further south and you might get a one-bedroom flat near Sudului or Aparatorii Patriei metro stations. By metro you could be at Pipera station in about 15 minutes, plus however long it takes you to walk from your flat to the station, plus up to 5 mins waiting time (rush hour).

Hi thank you for the fast reply, can you please indiacate me any site in which i can check houses? i m afraid my romanian do not exist, but my english is excellent.

@mery1728: The proposal of Maykal is ok. You should look for anuntul.ro and search there. These posting are fresh and paid by the landlords. Look for "proprietar"  ( directly by the owner without intermediates )and your area.

Hi Mery,
How are you enjoying Bucharest? I'm considering relocating there. Can you explain to me about which districts are nice to live in? I'm looking for a downtown 2 bedroom flat. I like cafés, restaurants museums, grocery stores, shops, access to transportation etc...any information you can provide would be appreciated. Thank you
Kind regards

I would love information on long term apartment rentals in Bucharest, as I am looking to be in downtown, mostly District 1.  The links I've found thus found don't seem to be informative.  Thank You

be careful being an expat will bring you higher rents......negotiating is key also there are 2 kinds of rentals furnished and un furnished

or just walk away at the first sign of "bull"

Generally speaking in my opinion it is a complex task to find an appropriate apartment in Bucharest for rent or for sale in a nice area with a reasonable price and Western, modern standard.
But not impossible: it just takes time! :-)
I suggest you 2 areas of the city to consider for expatriate housing and each should be considered for specific reasons: 1. Downtown and 2. Northern area

With kind regards,
Cristina
