  1. Furnished Apartment For Rent In Addis Ababa- In Convenient Yet Quiet Residential Neighborhoods

  2. Every expatriate wants their moving experience to be smooth and stress free. Whether you have done it before or not,determining what kind of accommodation and which location would be suitable to your needs is not always straight forward because it depends on many city and country-specific factors. That is why it is highly recommended for expats moving to Addis Ababa to find a professional and trustworthy real estate agency, which can provide them with the necessary guidance.

  3. The Ethiopian real estate market offers a wide range of accommodation options from lavishly furnished apartments for rentin Addis Ababa to a beautiful vacation house on a lake shore not far from the capital.This article will discuss the furnished apartment market in Addis Ababa briefly.Findinggreat furnished apartments for rent in Addis Ababa, thanks to the construction boom in the city in the last decade,is not as difficult as it used to be a few years ago. Whether you need a short-term or long-term lease or you are in a situation where you’re not quite sure of how long you want to stay in Addis Ababa, renting a furnished apartment can be a more preferred option for you to leasing a villa.Renting a villa in Addis Ababa comes with some serious obligations that you might not be ready to handle.

  4. Renting a standalone house means that you have to hire a gardener to carefor the garden every few days; at least two security guards who work on shifts; a maid who keeps the house and the premisesof the property neat and tidy at all times. You will also be charged with the responsibilities of paying utility bills such as power, water and telecom bills every month. This means that you will need to make at least3 unnecessary trips to the respective officesof the individualutility companies and stand in long linesto settle your bills. However, if you rent a furnished apartment in Addis Ababa, you will be spared from having to deal with almost all of these because it is the landlord’s responsibility to provide you with 24/7security, internet connection, common area cleaning, garbage disposal, and payment of utility bills. The other advantage a fully furnished apartment for lease in Addis Ababa offers is that you won’t have to spend a fortune on furniture purchases, which is a must if you were to rent a villa (villas usually come unfurnished). Good quality furniture is quite expensive in Ethiopia as most of it is imported from Europe and Asia.Locally manufactured furniture is yet not up to international standards. You may think that you could use a duty-free privilege you are entitled to as a diplomat(if you are one) to import your furniture but that usually takes 4-6 months to arrive, which means that your hotel bills will skyrocket while waiting for your furniture.For these reasons, furnished apartments have become so popular among expats moving to Addis Ababa for long or short stays in the last 3 to 5 years. As the level of furnishing, size, finishing quality,and location vary greatly, the prices of furnished apartments for rent in Addis Ababa also vary a lot.In general, there are good furnished apartments, which go for anywhere between $1,000 to $5,000 per month. Professional real estate firms like Ethiopian Properties can assist you in identifying and securing a lease on the option thatwould be the best fit for your pocket and comfort. Below is a more general information on the concept of furnished apartments that could be handy for anyone looking to rent one in Addis Ababa.

  5. What Is a Furnished Apartment? Perhaps the furnished apartments in Addis Ababa have no such clear standard. Some are entirely furnished, whereas some are partially-furnished. Mostof the furnished apartments you find in Addis are usually equippedwith the basics, which include beds, mattresses, dresser, kitchen appliances, living room furniture, and bathroom necessities. Where that is the case, it is always wise to ask the landlord whether he can provide you with all the missing elements or not before you sign a contract. That usually induces them to meet all your needs and you don’t have to procure or move furniture during your entry or exit. There are also fully furnished apartments, which go above and beyond the basics and provide things like curtains, carpets,blankets, sheets,and even utensils. Here are a few advantages of renting furnished apartments. •Lower upfront cost: The price of furniture in a landlocked country like Ethiopia, which has to import it from abroad, can be mind boggling. Renting a furnished apartment for rent in Addis Ababa will sure save you a lot of money. Check to see which option fits best with your budget at Ethiopianproperties.com •Easy moving: Moving to a new home with a couple of boxes and your suitcases make your relocation easy and hassle-free. You neither have to hire a moving company or hear complaints of your family members and friends about back problems they may get as a result of carrying heavy furniture. Instead, everything will be in the right place when you enter your new home. •Flexibility: Furnished apartments are perfect for people who have to relocate for jobs or business every few months or for students who spend a few months in Addis Ababa to do an internship.

  6. Questions You Should Ask Before Renting a Furnished Apartment In Addis Ababa •Do you have the list of the furnishings in the apartment? Ambiguous descriptions of furnishings can be misleading. You probably may not have time to wait until you can see things. It is also impossible if the furnished apartment for rent is in the highly competitive area of Addis Ababa. Ask the property manager to provide the list of furnishings that come with the apartment. It will allow you to compare it with the rent of other furnished apartments for rent. If you’re moving from another state or overseas, then viewing the apartment before moving can be impossible, ask the landlords and property managers to email you the detail list for furnishings and appliances to keep everything transparent. •Are there any other items included besides Furniture? Most furnished apartments in Addis Ababa provide furniture and appliances, such as couch, coffee tables, beds, dining table, chairs, coffee maker,lamps, televisions, toaster ovens,and much more. The furnished apartments for rent in Addis Ababa act more like mini-hotels for almost all tenants( Both short-term and long-term) except they come with added benefits and extra comfort. That is why they are also suitable for business travelers who need to spend a few weeks or months in the city. •Do you charge a separate fee for using the furniture? In general, Ethiopianlandlords are likely to charge you a single rent for any kind of furnished apartment for rent in Addis Ababa. There shouldn’t be any distinctive charges for the furnishings. The rent charged by the landlord usually covers everything to recoup costs on their investment for the furniture. You are required to pay only the security deposit, which you will get back when you move out.The standard security deposit is normally not more than one month’s rent.But it doesn’t hurt to check with the landlord just in case.
