What is the average cost of housing in Jakarta?

Answer this Question

If you are thinking about moving to Jakarta, cost of living in probably a key consideration. Expats commented about the cost of housing...

"The cost of housing in Jakarta can vary greatly depending on the area and type of property. Generally, the average cost of housing in Jakarta is relatively high compared to other cities in Indonesia. Renting an apartment in the city center can be quite expensive, while renting a house in the suburbs may be more affordable," remarked another expat in Jakarta, Indonesia.

"Much higher and not justifiable in my opinion! Average cost of housing is US$3,000/month, payed 24 months in advance, lump sum, and in US dollars. Most houses are built with inferior material and shoddy methods. They look good when newly built or renovated, but they are not meant to last more than 15 years (when they are gutted and renovated). Many owners paid more for the lot than they did to construct the house," said a member in Jakarta, Indonesia.
