Dubai Forums Dubai Expat Forums Accommodation in Dubai

Hi guys,

I am moving to dubai in about 10 days time and have been looking in detail at the rental markets on the internet and have found quite a bit of info!

The difficulty i'm having is finding places to buy to make a comparison. Everything on the net appears to be off plan which is not a great deal of use as i would consider buying in order to invest cash into something i own as opposed to 'into someone elses pocket' i.e (renting).

Is there some sort of 'ready to move into' purchase crisis?

Really, any advice/views on the rent or buy debate would be greatly appreciated.

If it makes any difference, i would be looking at renting/buying a 1/2 bedroom appartment!

Many thanks for any advice you can offer and apologies if i have repeated previous questions!

Cheers,
