Renting a house in Georgia, the experience of my family - Mistakes that you can avoid.
It is not necessary to rent a house in advance without visiting the place. Only after a full inspection, checking the working condition of all appliances, showers, speakers, and so on, you can think about renting. Never grab the first case that comes along, look at a few options.
In Georgia, they go to bed at two or three in the morning, it doesn't bother anyone, we were not comfortable in the first apartment. We didn't know about the so–called Georgian zen at that time.
Moreover, we heard roosters in the sleeping area in the morning, yes, such a discovery.) Chickens and a rooster live on a neighbor's balcony. And there's nothing you can do about it! For three weeks we lived like this, by the way, the rooster had an alarm clock failure, he crowed at two in the morning… How can I sleep here? They came up with such a way out. They bought a rooster from a neighbor, gave him this curiosity for soup and began to sleep peacefully.
Ash two o.
Water pressure, especially in high–rise buildings, is a problem for the upper floors, keep this in mind. There is a water problem and therefore I advise you to check before renting an apartment, so that instead of taking a shower you don't have to settle for a trickle in your little finger. And it's hot here and showers and water treatments are very relevant.
Heating.
It's a scourge. It would seem warm and it's not worth thinking about, but the nights are cold. We save $250 a month for heating. Central heating is one thing, a gas boiler is another. Pay your attention and say this moment.
Another nuance, we lived in an apartment building in Batumi for the first month and there was a feeling that we were living on a construction site. There are punchers, jackhammers, smells all around. You can't explain to every neighbor that you don't like noise and are crazy about silence. We even had a street musician, he played on the street by himself.
Also noise. Air conditioning is annoying at night, the engine and fan just do not let you sleep. Notice if there are roads nearby, what purpose? What is the traffic flow? In Georgia, the car signal is a way of communication, that is, day and night you will hear the "conversations" of drivers.
We are responsible for those who have been tamed.
A specific attitude to pets in Georgia, they love pets very much here. But not every owner is ready to let you and your pet into their home. I'll tell you right away – it won't work to hide! Word of mouth – the owners will find out right away, you will find trouble on your head.
Sleeping place.
The mattress should be comfortable, the bed is not squeaky, the pillow and blanket are not biting. Here in the first three days – everything turns out. It is made perfectly at the first inspection, and it is uncomfortable to sleep.
Appliances.
Microwaves are not very popular in Georgia. Don't look for an apartment with cool appliances. The maximum is a kettle, then our own – we bought for ourselves, at our discretion and needs. They even took a refrigerator, and a year later they sold it.
Take a Georgian with you when you go to look at housing. His presence will help to negotiate with the owner. There was a host who didn't speak much Russian and therefore, in principle, it was difficult to discuss everything.
In one of the apartments in the evening, a sign lit up and blinked on our nerves.) I had to buy fabric and hang the window.
The neighbors will prove themselves in time. That is, take it off for a year at once, and then it turns out that an apartment is rented for daily rent nearby – there will definitely be noise and partying.
Web..
This is important, everything is fine in Georgia. The highest rate is $33. We are all already used to this parameter as a matter of course. But no, there is a difference for those who work on the Internet. The signal and the flow must be sufficient, otherwise what it is, what it is not. Check it too
Windows.
The view from the window in Georgia means a lot, because here it is a gorgeous expanse and beautiful architecture. Do not miss this moment, there is also a view of the neighboring wall of the house.)
Owner.
Be sure to communicate in person, discuss the details. After all, a two-bedroom apartment may actually be completely passable.
Bathroom.
Pay attention to the insulation, it's cool and cool in summer, and in winter? Especially with children. I saw a variant of the house when the toilet was in another building. Bathhouse, locker room across the street. Another problem with drying clothes. These are not the balconies you are used to, they are small. Designed for admiring the views. And the dryer saves.
Electricity.
Especially in the house. It is not designed for a large load and it is impossible to turn on several devices plus a computer somewhere. In autumn, when many people turn on electric heating, things are not very good. I have every computer tied up with a stabilizer, otherwise it will burn.
Mould.
Often in apartments in the first line near the sea.
Be careful, because it is you who live in this room. Today they are scrupulous, tomorrow they are calm.
