KZreadrs need to stop comparing prices to western countries. $480.00 for that apartment is expensive for the area. By continuing to overpay, the price continues to go up.

Been to H Suites to visit a friend. Very nice place in a quiet area. Her accommodation was slightly smaller (studio like) and it was 420$/ month For the people who mentioned that it is pricey … guess what, my studio in Taiyo hotel will be 850 USD a month. Pricey?

Hello. I have only stayed in this apartment. I have no experience with any other accommodation. With the visa you can apply online for a 3 month visa now.

I have watched several similar videos but when I looked at the visa opportunities, I realized that the only foreigners who would be in the market for an apartment or house would the the few who have a job or a skill that locals did not have. That is likely rare now. So the most likely seekers of housing are in fact the KZreadrs who walk visit these apartments and sell their video experiences on line.

Good question. Many people say it is risky. If the ice is from tap water then it could be harmful. In my experience, I haven't gotten sick from iced drinks thankfully.

Here in USA, richer people from A move to poorer places like B and buy properties. After that the prices go up because of less supply and more demand. The result of which is original people from B not being able to afford to live in B, and have to move to C. Kicked out of their own home by richer people.

Just like how out-of-state students pay a lot as compared to in-state, similarly the taxes on foreigners investing in a certain region should be so massive that it deters them from investing. In the short run it's bad for the region, but in the long run, it's better.
