The apartment rental notice was posted on the forum "Apartment Rentals and Roommates." One would expect to see apartment rentals, rather than job offers, posted on this forum. Right? "Opportunity" clearly refers to "rental opportunity." So what is the problem, Elpanada?
The location is good and I think the rental price asked for this apartment reflects the current market in Recoleta. I know someone who had a few months rental of a similarly size place on Junin near Santa Fe over a year ago and paid US $1100. It is likely that the rent would be higher now, I don't know.
As some of those who are renting in San Telmo may not be aware, prices in Barrio Norte/Palermo/Recoleta have risen substantially over the last year or so. The rental market also reflects that rise.
If you don't want to rent it, fine. But don't attack someone for posting a notice about an apartment rental in the "Apartment Rentals and Roommates" forum. And please, folks --- quit turning EVERY THREAD into an opportunity to slam Argentina and Argentinians!
Rental opportunity?That's just idiotic, as if it was hard to find a place to rent in Buenos Aires, next we'll be talking about eating opportunities and mentioning names of different restaurants around town.There's no question that 1200 is in the high end of a reasonable range for short term rental apartments but 4 months is not a short term so this place is not on that market and is therefor way overpriced. "If you don't want to rent it fine but " But nothing I have no need to rent an overprized apartment in Buenos Aires and this is a bulletin board which a person chose to use to advertise something for rent on, what that person did by doing so was opening up the possibility that people not interested in renting it might comment about it and that is exactly what I am doing. I am not attacking anyone but I do think that using the word opportunity regarding an apartment for rent is idiotic and borderline dishonest and I think that it is even more so regarding this particular apartment since it is obviously overpriced.
