Ukraine » Rental Market

The buyer of the apartment will inherit any unpaid bills on apartment. This is a concern because Many Ukrainians have not paid their utility bills for years. Most apartment buildings still run on the soviet central planning system, which encourages free loading since heat, electricity and water cannot be cut off to any one individual apartment, but instead the whole apartment building is one unit.

Typical rental prices in Ukrainian cities are usually 5-10% of the property value per year, or 0.8% per month. In other words, an apartment that would currently sell for $40,000 USD would probably cost $160-320 per month to rent (closer to the middle of this range would be most typical).
