There is plenty to say about housing in East Jakarta, from the house types to the facilities a residential estate offers. You can also estimate what a house is likely to cost by looking at a handful of its features. Let's go through the points that matter.

Types of Homes

The housing estates in East Jakarta offer a wide range of home types: simple homes (Type 21 to Type 60, where the number refers to the building area in square meters), luxury homes (above Type 60), modular and minimalist homes, and many other styles you can find. Each estate usually has its own character, but the types on offer tend to vary a great deal, since everyone's needs differ, from small to large.

Prices

Home prices in East Jakarta estates start at around Rp 300 million and run into the billions, depending on the type you choose. A simple Type 21 home can still be found at about Rp 300 million, but the location is not very strategic. If you have more to spend and prefer a classic European style, some estates also offer large, grand homes at sky-high prices. Each estate usually follows a different theme.

Location

The spread of housing estates across East Jakarta gives you many locations to choose from when you build or buy. You can pick a location to suit your daily commute or your finances. A location far from the main road pushes home prices in that estate lower. By contrast, an estate close to a main arterial road and other public facilities will carry a fairly high price.

Facilities

Prices also differ according to the facilities an estate has. The more facilities, the higher the price of the homes inside. Security, easy access, shopping centers and even schools located within the estate all add to its value.

A home that fits your needs and is close to everything is an advantage you get when you build or buy in an East Jakarta housing estate. This part of the city also has public facilities spread along its streets. You can enjoy a wide variety of food lined up along the main roads. For entertainment, East Jakarta has plenty of places to visit in your spare time. The facilities an estate provides can also help with daily needs, from the monthly grocery run to vehicle servicing. Make sure you buy a home in a complex with a high level of security that is comfortable to live in. Pay attention to the home type that suits your family's needs, too. One East Jakarta estate, in the Cibubur area to be exact, is Citra Grand Cibubur CBD. Its location is strategic because it sits close to an LRT station, and it has many cluster options suited to modern families.
