When moving into a different country it might be hard deciding where to live exactly. The names of the streets sound like magic words; you have no idea how far you’d have to go to the center, whether the price you’re offered is reasonable and how much you should pay for water and energy.
These are common troubles for every traveler who comes into the country alone. I should know, I lived in a few countries alone myself and I know what a pain looking for rent can be.After I came back to Lithuania, I’ve found a website, specified to answer exactly these questions that I desperately needed. Right now it’s specified for Lithuania, so if you are coming to Vilnius, Kaunas or other bigger town, you can easily check all of these things in their website www.kurgyvenu.lt (also, in English and Russian).
The website is user friendly; you can get information about a certain house or even compare two of them. The given information shows information about the building, air and noise pollution, distance to the center, average market price, etc. If you want to get information about a specific house, then they also show how much will you have to pay for heating, water, - usual maintenance costs.
The website also has rent or sale ads, so you can just check out the possible living place there. And if you have any questions, you can always ask the staff.
