Everybody knows that the cost is the main thing while choosing one of the variants. In this case hotel rooms are not the best variant, as the cost of the flat for rent in Kharkov is far cheaper. The price for a room in a good hotel expenses for the services that are provided for free. But often you do not even need them: a breakfast, an everyday cleaning, a change of linen, business-center, Internet and other.
Why do you have to pay for the service you do not use? Meanwhile, if you prefer to stay in a cheaper in Kharkov, nobody will guarantee you an caring attitude towards you. The hotels that were built in the Soviet times often bad service. Their employees are of the same age as these. They know nothing about the standards of services and modern ways of booking rooms, checking-in and payments. Reserving rooms in such hotel in Kharkov you take risk of your mood and nerves!
As for daily rent of flats in Kharkov it is surely a great alternative to hotels. Having rented a flat you are free to do want you want. You have at your disposal not only a sleeping room as in a hotel, but also several functional zones, that can be used for having meal, working and receiving guests.
another advantage is that you can receive your guests, when you want to. There are strict rules about receiving guests in any hotel. But in a flat you can do it in your free time.
Definitely the cost of a flat differs depending on the equipment in the flat (fire-place, Jacuzzi and other facilities) but the price will be several times lower than the price of a hotel room of the same level anyway. So the flats took their stable stand on the market of accommodation and became the worthy competitor to the Kharkov hotels rooms.
You may ask in what negative moments you can have while renting an apartment! The main thing is not to become a victim of cheaters who will take your money and would not give you any accomodation. They will just give you a wrong address or the keys that won't fit to the apartment. Do not use any services of any private persons not to fall for the bait. Do not pay them any money before you are in the flat. Use the services of big agencies with good reputation that will give you out all the necessary documents. We hope that your sojourn in Kharkov will be pleasant.

Canadian Immigration and Real Estate
Living Quarters: Canadian Options
As with most countries, Canada offers a wide variety of options when it comes to choosing a place to call “home.” The choice you make will depend on several factors, including your budget, your space needs, and your desired location.
Below are some of the options you may want to consider:
- Room for rent – Some individuals who own a house or an apartment may rent out separate rooms in those dwellings. All of the tenants share the bathroom(s) and the kitchen.
- Studio apartment – These apartments are small and were primarily designed for just one person. Most consist of a single large room – that contains the kitchen and bedroom – and a separate bathroom.
- Apartments – Larger apartments are also available. These can range in size from one to three bedrooms. They also have separate living rooms, kitchens, and bathrooms.
- Duplex – A duplex is a single home that has been divided into two separate living areas. Each area is completely separate from the other, but residents may share a yard or driveway.
- Townhouses – Townhouses are small houses which are built in rows, so that they form a chain. Most of the homes in the chain are similar in appearance.
- Houses – Homes of all shapes and sizes are available throughout Canada. You can also choose to have a home built specifically to your specifications on an available lot.
- Condominiums – Condos are essentially apartments or townhouses that are owned, not rented. Owners are responsible for all of the internal upkeep on the property and must pay property taxes. They also pay a condo association fee which covers the costs of outdoor maintenance, such as lawn mowing.
Besides these options, there are also two other important choices you need to make: furnished or unfurnished and rent or buy.
Furnished or Unfurnished
In Canada, you can find homes and apartments that are furnished. This means that all of the necessary furnishings are included in the living area, such as beds and chairs. Furnished apartments and homes may be a good option when you are first moving to Canada, especially if you are immigrating from a distance. The cost of transporting your own couches and beds could be quite expensive.
Most people, however, choose to live in an unfurnished dwelling so that they can decorate in a manner they see fit. Some unfurnished homes and apartments will still come with kitchen appliances, such as refrigerators and stoves.
Rent or Buy
This is an important decision because it will also influence which types of property from the list above you focus on during your search for a place to live. Most new permanent residents choose to rent an apartment or home initially, so they can get a feel for the area, find a steady job, and do some leisurely research on the real estate available in their price range. However, there are also many newcomers to Canada who jump right in and purchase a home.
If you do choose to buy a home, townhouse, duplex, or condominium, then be aware that you will need to have money for a down payment. Most banks and mortgage providers will require a down payment of at least 10% of the total cost of the house. That means if you want to buy a $100,000 home, you'll need a $10,000 down payment.
If you opt to rent an apartment, a room, a home, or a duplex, then you will also need to be prepared to pay some money upfront. Most landlords in Canada expect you to pay first and last month's rent after you sign the lease. Many landlords will also require you to provide a reference's contact information. The reference MUST be someone living in Canada. Your employer, for example, may be a good reference.
Regardless of whether your rent or buy, you can expect to pay between $350 and $2000 a month depending on the living quarters you select. As a general rule, you shouldn't spend more than 50% of your income on housing costs, including your utility bills and mortgage/rent payments. That means you'll want to establish a budget before you start house/apartment hunting in Canada.
Also, keep in mind that housing costs vary considerably, even within the same province. You can save money on your housing if you do some research and focus on areas outside of major cities.
