- Come with us to tour 6 different houses in Montevideo. We viewed 11 different homes in the last month and this is the second half. I've included the prices in Uruguayan pesos as well as the meters squared, the listing information and as much info on each property as I could to help give you a rough idea of what is available to rent in Montevideo, the neighbourhoods of Pocitos, Tres Cruces and Malvin, and the value in August of 2023.
Please comment below if you want more info on any of these houses or if you would like to see a video with cheaper or more expensive homes!

Love these videos! There’s something so Uruguayan about not painting the house until after the tenants see it 😭
and the photos online are all so shitty! like even that house in pocitos that was GORGEOUS but the photos were so bad, like they could have asked for 40.000 + if they had just put 5 hours of effort into making it look nice and THEN taking the photos lmao
ps you should like, move back here... jks, i know you wont and then you probably will just be considering it when we go to leave and i will cry
@@MaddieAle well… I actually am having a little issue with my residency process here so we’ll see how that goes lol
Thanks for the video, it's nice to hear your voices. I've watched so many of your videos that you're like friends to me.
I am a uruguayan lived in Montevideo 40 years and been living in USA for 20 years. I would recommend Pocitos, south Malvin or south Buceo for many reasons but most of all for security reasons. Also another important tip, those houses with skylights or "claraboyas" are extremely cold in winter.
What are the bars on the windows and doors about? Is burglary, and home invasion common?
Good job! Keep them coming. Could you show the neighborhoods to stay from in Montevideo?
Yes, show them on a map if that is possible landmarks etc. I can screen shot them! Thanks again.
Right on Alejandro, thanks for sharing! I hope to see you in January at Punta Del Este Beach rugby, or in Montevideo in February and March, mate. 🏉 👍🏽
The boys are looking strong in France. How about that no look kick to the corner!!
I don't know if you guys have heard of Tiny house. But, maybe that's something to look into. Just a suggestion 😊
Alejandro is over 200cm tall.... so a tiny house would be a bit silly for us jaja but otherwise thanks for the suggestion!
Thanks! USD prices please
Love your videos ! Coming to Jose Ignacio for Christmas and NYE. Can’t wait
You need to raise your volume
I usually check the audio a couple of times, but sorry if it still was too quiet for you.
en ingles es igual que en español RECICLADA = RECYCLED, renovada en españo, es renovated en ingles, pero en Estados Unidos no se usa renovated para una casa, si recycled, el ingles tiene la mitad de su vocabulario con raiz latina, por eso casi todas las palabras en ingles tienen al menos una version como en español , solution = solucion, problem = problema,etc
You guys might not consider this but for us Urugayans steel bars are important in chosing a house. It is an investment thst if you don't have it beforehand and have to initiate the process of making the house more secure all by yourselves can get pretty expensive. I'm stating this because I know that's not something people comming from first world countries usually pay atention to. As always, great video! Sorry I'm this late once again. Godspeed and best wishes to you both kids!
All I can think of as a German is the glass being just single layer, not double or triple glass. Importing custom made windows from Germany (which are actually made in Poland mostly) would probably also be far too expensive with the import tax situation.
@@bolle666Aye. We've been a welfare state since 1915 so is about three times the actual price to import almost anything. As for the triple glass windows I'd have to see that. Buckos can get pretty creative down here, I remember a few years ago there was a band of Chileans who came around and started robbing cash registers by exploding gas cylinders. If South Americans thieves worked for Hollywood instead of stealing we would probably win 20 Oscars every year lol
I feel your pain, and you're renting, imagine looking to buy a house, going through a mortgage with a local bank. Shitty properties asking 200k usd, nuts. Nice video btw, keep looking!
The place I rented in Jose Ignacio is 14,000usd for 9 nights. It’s stupid expensive out there
I will be renting soon two ground-floor apartments right at the Villa Biarritz park with driveways, in better conditions and better price than those 11 homes. If you are still interested or have friends or acquaintances, please let me know.
we didn't really want any apartment type homes! not with all of our pets, but thanks for the suggestions.you're right, the area there is lovley
Hello Maddie and Ale from Lima . I have seen your great work and have 4 main questions. Could you help us , please ?
1° What website are you using for property adds ?
2° Is there modern apartments building in Montevideo to choose from ? With pool, gym, nice lobby, personnel for maintenance, etc ?
3° For Montevideo, Is there a building industry where we can see demolishing those old house and building new apartment buildings in middle or high class areas ?
4° What districts are considered middle class and what are high-class ? what areas should be avoided ?
Higher end are , pocitos,buceo
R u moving to montevideo
Hi @maddie & ale, I will be moving to Montevideo in the month of Nov, can you please suggest me something in tres cruses area. I’m looking for 1bhk furnished apartment.
... there aren't many furnished places I'm afraid, its really hard to find something that isn't completely empty.
Having furnished places isn't the norm in Uruguay. There have been appearing a little bit in recent years in some high-end neighbourhoods like Pocitos or Punta Carretas, but it's still far from the norm.
I'm wondering why there seems to be bars on the windows of all the houses. I live in a one-family house in Queens, NY and have no bars on my windows because I never felt the need for them. The same is true for my neighbors' houses. Is burglary in Uruguay very common?
bars are for safety, if a house doesn't have bars it sometimes has roller shutters, but almost all nice houses or apartments have the bars unless you are on the 8th floor and there is no risk of burglars!
yea i feel this comment perfectly describes it! Like it isn't common, but it is a normal FEAR, so the bars help people to feel at peace :)
I have to be honest i like listening to him talking better. Idk why
Last house. $840usd a month? Cheap
Wtf, why are there bars in every house? Thought that URGay is safe place :o
It is safe compared to many places, but the bars just help people to FEEL safe. Honestly I don't know how necessary they are, but even the nice houses have bars, just nicer looking bars. a lot of apartment buildings DON'T have bars, but they instead have roller shutters that work as security at night.
Best to add the U.S dollar Equiv. of rent for your N. American Viewers. Thanks.
i specifically didn't because i've done that in the past, but then a couple of months later it is no longer accurate! it is also pretty easy to convert it yourself :)
If I decide to rerire there (and if I can get a Visa) my budget will be $1,500-$1,600/month (could go to $1,700, but prefer to not spend my last cent). Not interested in the beach or high-rise buildings. I'm single and no pets. I'm in good health. I can do my own repairs. Prefer quiet over noisy. Don't know if I'll have a motor vehicle, but I will have a bicycle (is that practical?)
Ciudad Vieja has the potential to be gorgeous but if you get too far away from the pedestrian street it becomes scary to walk through, even if you're uruguayan. I've talked to foreigners who want to move here and the find Ciudad Vieja very charming, and yeah, some parts of it are beautiful, but if for us uruguayans it's a place we choose to avoid, then imagine what it's like as a foreigner who isn't familiar with the city...
Tons of abandoned and illegally occupied buildings, tons of illegal pensiones that scam immigrants and have them living like cattle, every single time you walk through Ciudad Vieja it's loud music everywhere. Not even worth rating a house in a location like that, safety and peace are much more important than the size of a bedroom.
I don't know how to convert their currency into US dollars. The houses seem very odd to me. So many rooms and random layouts, narrow passageways and stairs, inconsistent decor and weird execution. I'm just not used to it, but I'd love to give it a try. Don't know if I can afford any of it though because I don't know about their currency. Don't know about the tax either.
Google: Currency Converter
There are currency converters online, its not really difficult. I keep an open window on my computer open with the site & convert prices.
Put prices in USD please.
30,000 P = 1500 USD ???
Oops google says $760..
Exactly. it is always best that you google it yourself because from one day to the next, the exchange rate changes. the prices are intended to give you an IDEA but of course things will change if you move here in a few months time or years.
If you ever wanted to talk more about uruguay we now offer consutlations due to all of the requests, so we would be happy to answer any more questions about housing or anything else that you might be curious about. stan.store/MaddieinMontevideo
The poor condition of all these properties is appalling!
Yea I mean they aren't great, but keep in mind these were the cheaper houses available in the area, if you are willing to pay a lot more, the conditions are better, but still not perfect!
