Hey everybody! Kylie here. Today I’m sharing what spending 900 Euros per month on rent for a one-bedroom apartment in Lisbon looks like for me. AKA, I’m sharing a little tour of my apartment!

The purpose of this video is simple: To give you reference point for the expectations and budget you set for your own apartment here.

When I first started hunting for a place to live in Lisbon, I didn’t really know what was ‘realistic’ or ‘reasonable’ in terms of an apartment standard here, especially when it came to the budget.

I think it’s really easy to say “Oh, 900 Euros in the US would look like this, therefore it should look the same in Lisbon!” NO. The standards for apartments here in Portugal are very different than standards in other countries, including the US.

Overall, I hope that this video gives you some clarity when it comes to the expectations you set for your apartment including your budget. Like I say in the video, I am not trying to imply that ALL one-bedroom apartments in Lisbon at this price point look exactly like this. Rather, I’m just trying to provide one reference point.

Finding an apartment in Portugal as an expat is extremely tough to say the least; I hope this helps you, even if it’s just a little bit.

I hope that you all enjoy the video :) Please don’t forget to leave any comments or questions below and, of course, like the video if you find it valuable.

DISCLAIMERS:

1. The title of this video is “What 900Euros gets ME” not “What 900Euros can get anybody and everybody”… I hate to have to say this because it should be a given, but please keep in mind that I am not trying to say that what you find for 900Euros is going to look exactly like my apartment
2. Please do not send me a message asking where my apartment is located or if we have any available apartments in my building because I will not be revealing the location of my home
3. For privacy purposes, I will not be showing the outside of my apartment or the area where I sleep - thank you for understanding!
