oh my god you azzhole. you wasted my time watching that. i thought such a tiny apartment would be like 800/month max. 3700 for that? are you crazy? who's gonna rent that?
This one is about $2,300,000. Not the expected return I would imagine. Though I favor this sort of property, Ocean Villas (abutting neighborhood) is a much more lively community, and would be my preferred choice.
Thank you for your continued support, Mr. R! I really appreciate it. These street interviews are fun. Hope to add in more with more personal questions about traveling. ❤️
Thank you to all the interviewees! We appreciate you taking the time to chat with us. ❤ And for your open honesty. What questions do you have for travelers, nomads, and remote workers here in Da Nang?
Thank you for watching! I appreciate it. You know, the shorter you stay, the more expensive everything becomes. However, if you live there, prices begin to normalize. I would say it’s roughly 1/3 the cost of living in an equivalent city in the US. Stay tuned - next month I begin touring more properties in Tokyo, and cover aspects of living there, full-time.
Couldn’t agree more. Not how I envision buying a property. However, a well-informed Vietnamese friend of mine says he was not told of the 10-year requirement, instead saying he could move in once the property was completed. 🤷🏻♂️
@@BudCowmen vietnamese law is not clear-cut when it comes to foreigner ownership. As long as renting is cheaper than owning there's no reason to buy especially with no long-term visas.
@@yamuiemata This 100x. I really see no reason to buy, at this point. Rent is affordable, relative to your currency. And there is plenty of availability. And, of course, the lack of long-term visa, as you have mentioned.
That’s right! If you hit the minimum spend, which is like $35, you don’t pay taxes. Just show your passport. So bring it everywhere, if you intend to shop. 🤑
Honestly, not sure. I’m just placating to the naysayers that are always like “my 4-star hotel was only $70/night.” 😂 Possibly. We’ve rarely seen good hotels less than $130-150/night. At that point, might as rent an apartment for the month. 💪😎
Great video! Good timing and production quality. Great info in a short timespan! You should seriously consider making more like this, about vegan food in Japan and/or other countries. I would rename this video something like "The Best Vegan Junk Food in Tokyo". I think you would jump up in views. I've been researching Vegan food in Japan for a while and just came across your video, buried in the algorithm. Cheers.
This is an incredible thing to share. I can’t tell you how much I appreciate your kind words and encouragement. 🤗 I’m a bit older, and didn’t begin making vids until last year. So I have no idea what I’m doing. 😂 Nobody watches them. They do watch my TikTok, though! I took your suggestion and renamed the video. Again, thank you for the advice! I’m glad you were resilient and kept digging down. I’ll make one here in Da Nang, Vietnam, just for you. Thanks, man. You’ve given me new energy. 💪😎
Shibuya Station! You can also walk to Shinsen, if you are heading west. It would save you a bit of headache. Otherwise, Shibuya is 6 blocks from the apartment. Do note, since publication, this apartment has significantly increased in price and popularity. You can view different pricing at ModernLivingJapan.com.
At time of publication, it was $3700/mo. Not too terrible. Since then, I have seen better apartments, at better price points. However, AtInn.JP makes it very easy to rent and move-in. Very little hassle, unlike many other serviced apartment agencies. So, seems worth it, IMO.
At the time of posting this video, the price was $3700/mo. 😮 But, do keep in mind this is a serviced apartment. Meaning, you move in for a month, you leave. No longterm lease. Stay for 2 months, whatever. About the same price as a hotel, but with a kitchen, laundry, and no tourists in your living room. 😂
Totally agree. Incredibly cozy. At night, when the weather is cooler, we open the sliding doors and just chill on the couch. Feels like we’re the only people in the planet. Thanks for watching, my friend! 🤗
Agreed. What a trip that was to hear. A Nobu timeshare?! No thanks. 😂 Especially since there so much undeveloped land along the beach. Even next door! In 10 years, there will be newer, nicer buildings. Won’t want to move in, at that point.
You're telling me. 😂 Not a chance just so I can say I live at Nobu. I could do a 10-year rental for $120k and put $540k in a money market account drawing 5% and make $270k on the low, plus compound interest.
We absolutely, without question, overpay. So your thinking is correct. But we didn’t even second-guess the rate. After 2 months of searching, when we saw this one, we didn’t hesitate. Plus, we were living in a hotel, at the time. Anything was cheaper! 😂 But we do love this space. And the Shimokita location. 😍
