Buy an apartment

We are not racists we receive several hundred of thousends people from middle east, asia and africa who we pay their apartments, education and all living costs for them and their relatives, an european foreigner like you that is educated and take a work fast is no problem at all from "our" point of view, welcome. However I'm not sure what it takes to gonna stay here more than three months legal, maybe it is smarter to rent than to buy in the beginning. Go to any not too small city in north that have a big industry you will find a job easier. Kiruna the extreme. If south try the big area of Småland, lots of smaller industries that wants labour. Do not go to Stockholm, Gothenburg or Malmö where the competition and prices are higher.

To better understand what a home in Sweden costs, check out Hemnet. Your budget is too small for cities such as Stockholm or Gothenburg but I'm certain there are many favorable medium or small towns where you can purchase an apartment ("bostadsrätt") or even a house ("villa"). Here's a map on Hemnet with apartments and villas with a 1M starting price. Obviously, you need to factor in that cheaper housing often means living in an area with fewer work opportunities. You may want to consider renting an apartment and saving for better housing in a better city.

As for coming to Sweden for long-term employment and living, it really depends on factors such as your current employment, citizenship, whether you can find a sponsor for your application, etc. Brexit makes matters more complicated for British citizens. Your best option is to contact the Swedish Migration Agency for guidance.

Yes. I would like to work in the industry.
I am quite tall, and physically capable, so this can be an advantage.
I am also educated.

Do you have a link to these kinds of jobs?

Only problem. I cannot speak Swedish to a conversational level. I know words and phrases. Communication must be in English, until I learn Swedish. And obviously, I am not a native Swede.

How much do you think this matters? Will it prevent me from getting a job in industry?

People do not speak english to the level that they accept "english only"-speaking workers. That attitude changed after 2010.

You will be needed to socialize with refugees for the first 2-15 months in Sweden, depends on how well you learn the language. If you're coloured you're in for a treat in the employment-market, antiracist-campains have made into practice to force municipal companies to employ anybody who is coloured before genetic swedes til the spread of etnicity evens out in the workplace. You will be bottom-tier for an employer if you're white with bad skills in swedish.

I’m not coloured. I have black hair.
I am mostly Irish, Scottish and some German.
I have an Irish name.
I can socialise with refugees no problem to learn Swedish, no problem for me.

Lol yeah if you are running from depression your first thought shouldnt be Sweden. The cold and darkness and the boring people will kill you.

I like the boring people.
I am not a sociable person.
I love the cold climate.
It makes me feel clean.

Can you drive? Beside industries you can always drive a cab, you only have to take taxi driver license it's very cheap. Most drivers can't speak swedish so poor language is no problem as long as you understand, customers will be so happy to see a white face so you are fine.

No problem at all, you will learn critical words fast and otherwise everyone can speak english, they are quite similair.

You wont actually socialize with them, you'll just be forced to take classes with them. They wont befriend you and you'll get chills by the amount of arabic somali culture and language they will enrich you with.
Det är ju nån pervers önskedröm att få jobb på industri som icke svensktalande.
Städ och andra jobb som inte innefattar tunga maskiner eller samarbete, visst. Men allt utanför det kriterium kräver god kommunikationsförmåga, och det innefattar att kunna språket.
