    It Depends where you want to live and what standard. But I don’t think you get many apartments that cheap to rent. The one in your link is for sale

  2. I think this is the wrong link?
    But 340 in rent a month sounds cheap. It varies A LOT depending on location though.

  3. This is an apartment for sale for about 89k USD. If you get a loan for that entire amount that becomes around 360 USD per month in loan costs. If you have some capital then that will bring the total loan cost down.

    In addition to that apartments like this is part of a housing cooperative where you dont really own the apartment but you own shares of the entire building and have one of the apartments. This building has debt and communal costs such as building insurance etc, often included internet, tv and other arrangements. This costs a total of around 800 USD per month per tenant. This can increase or decrease, and the cooperative makes decisions regarding renovations etc. This means you should often take a look at the state of the building or even hear with a tenant or the board to see if there is some big renovations coming up. A change of all the balconies etc can often mean that the monthly costs go up by a bit.

  4. The apartment in your link is for sale. You can buy it outright for 900 000 kroner. 
    The 3643 kr/m is an example for what a loan of 900 000 kr from a bank might cost you.  

    The “felleskostnader” is rent that you pay to the owner of the building, communal services and cable/Internet. That’s 8240 kr/m on top of whatever the loan costs.
