Mongolia property secrets.





 🇲🇳 The real estate market in Mongolia is different from other countries, so the most profitable investment options are also unique.


Is a 1-bedroom apartment or a studio in Ulaanbaatar more profitable?

1. High Demand – In the city center and near major universities, students, single individuals, and young couples typically look for 1-bedroom apartments or studios.

2. Affordable Investment – These are much cheaper than 2-3 bedroom apartments, making them ideal for those with smaller budgets for investment.

3. High Rental Yield – The rental price-to-property value ratio is high, so rental income is quite good.

4. Low Vacancy Rate – Due to the high demand for 1-bedroom apartments, they are rented quickly with minimal downtime.

5. Easy Renovations, Low Cost – Compared to larger houses or apartments, the maintenance cost is lower, and it’s easier to update when tenants change.


What to avoid?

• Large apartments with many rooms – In Mongolia, large families often buy 3-4 bedroom apartments, making it take longer to rent these out.

• Large apartments in the city center or outskirts – Rental demand is lower, and rental prices tend to be relatively cheaper based on the location.


The best strategy?

• If you want stable rental income, choosing a 1-bedroom or studio apartment is the most profitable option.


Finally, as someone with years of experience and research in Mongolia’s real estate business, my advice is to invest in properties with stable rental income and sell them at the right time without losing value (purely for investment purposes). One of the best choices is the Rapid Residence in the Khurd District, located in the city center of Ulaanbaatar. It offers the best location, quality, warmth, and is in high demand at reasonable prices (next to Japan Town, which costs around 1 billion MNT). Over the years, I’ve seen orders come in quickly for 1-bedroom apartments in this area, and they get rented out or sold very fast. This trend will likely continue. Try it out for yourself, as ads for sale here are rare.
