Furnished or Unfurnished apartment

HI,

The differences can be huge, 10 Euro/month/square meter unfurnished, 80 Euro/month/square meter furnished for the Frankfurt am Main region. But as everywhere it is dependable on the town / location.

there are Ikea's everywhere and other large shops, like Praktiker(cheap), OBI, Toom and so on, where you can buy all you need.

Note also, that houses and apartments in Germany in generell come without a kitchen and that when you leave, you remove the kitchen (some people buy it from their previous occupants and/or sell the kitchen again to the occupants who come after them.

The first apartment I rented in Germany, I took my furniture from the Netherlands and only had to buy a kitchen for about 400 Euro including appliances.

Thanks alot.

would anyone know if 1400 EUR per month for a fully furnished 113 sqm apartment just south of Koln is reasonable? and how much would you think the rent would be for an unfurnished unit in a similar location?

cheers
