We asked foreigners in Panama what appliances are typically included in a rental, and, if there is anything else included or not included that a newcomer would not expect. Replies included...

"Rental properties in Panama commonly include kitchen appliances such as refrigerator, oven and stove, common laundry appliances such as washer and dryer, air conditioning units, fans and window screens to keep out insects, and occasionally furnishings, depending on the agreement between the tenant and the landlord. Additionally, it is common practice for landlords to provide households with basic, essential utilities such as water, electricity and internet," remarked another expat who made the move to Panama.

"We live in Panama City, and rent a furnished 1 bedroom condo, in a nice 35 story high-rise in Bella Vista. Washer/dryer stackable, fridge/freezer combo, gas burner stove top, and stove. Small microwave. This is typical most places we looked at. What we don't have: dishwasher. Most places do not have. We are adding one to our new condo waiting to be built. We also bought an airfryer on Amazon. Very handy. I would pick up a dehumidifier for your unit, if it does not come with one. Will help cut down on mildew. ," explained one expat living in Panama.
