The pandemic generated many
changes in habits
, and the home office promoted decentralization, with many people seeking to settle outside the City of Buenos Aires with the expectation of finding
better opportunities
in the midst of the economic crisis and high inflation.
But the increase in rents was not reserved exclusively for properties located in the Buenos Aires neighborhoods, but it also reached the properties located in the Conurbano.
Where there was also a noticeable difference was in the North zone, where today
renting costs 50% more
than in the West and South zones.
According to a report by Zonaprop, the average rental price for an apartment in the
North zone
is
$ 41,125 per month
, while in the
West and South zones it
is
$ 27,413 per month

Prices in all surveyed neighborhoods
rose more than
69%
in the last 12 months.

How much does a move cost?
Although there are a wide
variety of services
, with a
price
that will be adjusted to the
distance of the transfer
, the most common is the so-called
basic or standard
.
With this service, only small things should be packed in the boxes that the company provides and they take care of the rest: movement, disassembly and assembly of furniture, protection of furniture, going up and down stairs, disconnecting lights, etc.
The
most economical service
for a two- and three-room apartment costs
between $ 2,100 and $ 2,500
approximately
per hour of work
.
In most companies they clarify that there is a minimum of 3 hours.
In the case of wanting to add a
professional packer
for the storage of fragile objects, it is estimated that for half a day of work, the value of the service would increase by about
$ 15,000
.
For those who want to ignore this work and can
pay a little more
, another option is to hire a
premium service
that has staff who pack and unpack personal items at the destination.
The total cost, with transfer, VAT and insurance included, is around
$ 80,000
.
