Folks -

Any idea what a 3 bedroom apartment goes for in the Gardens? I would need one by Mid-September (not even sure that I have a shot!)

Regards,

are you interested in buying or renting?
and what area of the gardens?
i am in real estate, and can help answer questions with rent,
and can come up with a price and property for buying in the garden.
post reply, email or call me,

Hi adam,

My boyfriend and Iare also looking for an appartment in the Gardens starting mid November. 1 BR.

Could you advise on pricing? We just want to be somewhere between Marina and Jebel Ali so the Gardens is perfect.

Janine

Hi Janine,
again it really depends on whether you are interested in buying or renting, so obviously they are very different prices, hehe, for the next few days i will make it my main aim to learn a little bit more on the gardens,
ie, prices of the different sections and for the different number of bedroom apartments and villas and so on.
agian if you hav anymore questions, feel free to contact me directly,
my contacts are as below,
thank you.

We would be interested in rentring a 2 or 3 bedroom apartment. Kind of depends on the price. I'm not sure how big the Gardens is, but I work in Jebel Ali, and am looking for a nice place. A price range would be a great help for starters. Also, is it common that you pay up front for a whole year's rent? If so, what happens if you need to leave in between the term? Is that money lost? We're talking quite a bit of cash here..

Regards,

You have lots to learn my friend, such as the gardens is only available for leasing and not for sale. And the fact that there is 7000+ people plus on the waiting list for an apartment there. And after you learn that, if you can get janine an apartment power to you !!

Janine: my more realistic advice, forget about it, you have a better chance getting an apartment on the moon. As for your question on paying rent, you can negotiate paying your rent on 3 or 4 installments during the year. Good luck with the hunt !

nice one Maaad

The Green Community is the one where previously rented villas are now being sold - am I correct?

I am not sure actually, but alot of developers back in the day when property wasnt still taking off like it is now had rent-to-own schemes. I know for a fact Emaar had a rent-to-own thing going on in the Greens as my neighbor had a one bedroom rent-to-own for 30,000 dirhams a year (*sigh* those were the days)

People - lets not get confused between the Greens and the Green Community.

In terms of the Green Community, I'm sure you can buy places there, as that's where my cousin lives - and they bought their house.

I presume the Gardens aren't a "free-zone" then, if you can't buy properties there (on the assumption that UAE nationals can)??

the greens are for sale, at good prices and there are alot available for selling, on the freehold market aswell (anyone can buy) along with owning any freehold property a residential visa is given and is valid as long as you own a freehold property.
i am still not completely sure about the green community, but can find out.
also, you are correct in saying that the gardens is not for sale, and as far as i know, it is not for sale to UAE nationals either. The gardens is only for rent, and there is a 2 year waiting period before anything will be available.
my suggested places to rent or buy would be in, the arabian ranches, springs, greens, and dubai marina.
aslo in these places, the rent per year is generally around 10% of the selling price...

I'm 99.9% certain that you can buy freehold in the Green Community. Now whether anything is actually available right now is anyones guess!!
