Looking for an apartment to rent in Phnom Penh? We have you covered. This is a good starting point for expats who are in the process of moving to Cambodia to live and work.

The TCC’s 20-storey complex has apartment prices starting from $950 per square metre (sq m) – around $30,000 to $40,000 per unit.

“This condo is designed for lower- and middle-income earners. TCC’s condo has 20 storeys for the first building. From the ground floor to the fourth floor is the commercial centre, from the fifth floor to sixth floor is a car park and from the seventh floor to the twentieth storey are luxury condo apartments at a cost lower than the market price,” he said.

Cambodian millennials are driving affordable condominium sales as buyers shift towards developments that offer a sense of community, liveability and walkability, according to CBRE’s Fearless Forecast 2020. CBRE said that affordable places will rise in price because of healthy demand from local buyers, while mid-range and high-range condo prices will remain stable.

Based on the CBRE’s forecast, the condominium supply in 2020 is expected to increase 55 percent to 28,000 units. Of those, 24 percent are high-end, 46 percent are mid-range and 30 percent are considered to be affordable.

1000 per sq. meter is a decent price for something finished, but location is also a major factor.

I think you will find most of those cheap places are 4m x 10m or 12 m. Just big enough to swing a cat in.

My studio in Sydney is 37sqm. Big enough to have a queen bed, sofa and tv zone and kitchen with a peninsular bench. Bathroom big enough to have a washing machine and there's also a balcony. Perfectly comfortable for a single or a couple starting out. When you are forced to sit on the bed to watch TV because there's no room for a sofa, that's when a studio is too small because you may as well be in a hotel room.

So no room for swinging a cat.
