Same price

I decided to compare what you can get in Stockholm to what you can get in one of the most northern towns in Sweden – Luleå for the same price. It turns out that for 680,000 kr (or 84,000 U.S. Dollars) you can get this one-room apartment 20 minutes outside of Stockholm: Or for the [...]
Wednesday update

It looks like we won’t find out anything about the apartments we applied for until Monday at the earliest, so in the meantime we are still checking our usual lists. Since today is Wednesday, there is a list of new apartments, but nothing for us. The only 4 room is too expensive – good floorplan [...]
Is it sticky?

Saw an apartment listed for sale today on Sirapsvägen (Syrup Street!). I think I would like to live there just for the funny street name. For a while, I thought the pictures of the apartment were going to be normal, but the last picture was the one below. WHY? WHY ? WHY? A rose? Is [...]

An exciting weekend. We applied for 2 apartments in a new building in Enskededalen. It will be another week until we find out anything. The cut-off date to apply was yesterday and we are number 2 on one apartment and number 4 on the other. The people ahead of us have applied for more than [...]
Right on the golf course

Yesterday I was looking at an apartment in a neighborhood I’m not too familiar with. I think it used to be an industrial area but they are trying to build apartments there now. Besides pictures of the apartment, there were pictures of the surrounding area. In this case, I think it would have been better [...]
Not so fancy after all

I decided to find the most expensive apartment I could on the list of apartments for sale in Stockholm and this is what I found. The apartment is only 6 rooms and cost 15,900,000 SEK (1.93 million dollars). There was a hefty monthly rental fee on top of that too. The pictures of the apartment [...]
A little fixer-upper

I found a bargain yesterday on the apartments for sale in Stockholm. This one is only 735000 SEK (or 90,000 U.S. Dollars). It needs a little work. Yes, the apartment situation here is so bad that they take old storage space in attics, sell it for 90,000 U.S. Dollars, and you can fix it into [...]
The Wednesday update

There are no 4 room apartments at all today on the list that comes out each Wednesday. Very depressing. And in city line news, there is nothing new for us, but on the 2 apartments we applied for weeks ago, we are number 74 and number 80! So if 73 or 79 people decide they [...]
