We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered...
"Finding a place to live in Jumeirah involves several steps. First, you need to determine your budget. This will help you narrow down your options and make your search more efficient. Next, you should research the different neighborhoods in Jumeirah. Some areas may be more residential, while others may be closer to commercial centers or have better access to public transportation. Once you have a good idea of where you want to live, you can start looking for available properties. There are several online real estate platforms that you can use, such as Bayut, Property Finder, and Dubizzle. These websites allow you to filter properties based on location, price, size, and other features. You can also hire a real estate agent to help you in your search. They can provide you with expert advice and access to properties that may not be listed online. When you find a property that you're interested in, arrange a viewing with the landlord or real estate agent. This will give you a chance to inspect the property and ask any questions you may have. If you decide to proceed with a property, you'll need to negotiate the terms of the lease and sign a contract. In the UAE, it's common to pay rent in advance for the entire year, although some landlords may allow you to pay in multiple installments. Finally, once the contract is signed, you'll need to register the lease with the local municipality. This is a legal requirement in the UAE and helps protect your rights as a tenant. Remember, finding a place to live can take time, so it's important to start your search well in advance of when you plan to move," commented one expat who made the move to Jumeirah, the UAE.
