2. Instructions for answering questions

d. Type of ownership of apartment
The household's type of ownership of apartment is the arrangement according to which the household lives in the apartment (does it own the apartment, rent it, or lives there according to a different arrangement).
From this question we can learn what percentage of people live in an apartment they own, compared to the percentage of people who rent their apartment or live in an apartment without paying.
Question 10.40 - Is this apartment owned by you, or rented by you?

[] 1 Own it
[] 2 Key-money apartment
[] 3 Rent it (no key-money)
[] 4 Apartment owned by relatives and respondents do not pay rent for it
[] 5 Other, elaborate

- Apartment is considered as owned as soon as there is a purchase contract with a contractor, private body or any other body.
- 'Key-money apartment' (answer 2): This is a type of a rented apartment. The person living in the apartment paid a one-time deposit, 'key-money', when entering the apartment. During the lease he will pay a monthly rent, and when he leaves he will get the key-money back from the owner, or from the new tenant which will replace him in the apartment.
- 'Other' (answer 5): this is an apartment where people live without paying, and is not owned by relatives. For example: an apartment owned by the workplace, or an apartment that belongs to a religious institutions.
