Guide to Renting a Property in Dubai
Before you start viewing properties, decide how much you can afford monthly.
Remember to factor in deposits, utilities, and agent fees.
List what’s important: number of bedrooms, location, parking, and nearby amenities.
Knowing your priorities helps you filter listings efficiently.
Always view properties in person.
Check for maintenance issues, neighborhood noise, and overall building quality.
Read the agreement carefully — rent amount, duration, renewal terms, and notice periods.
Clarify anything unclear before signing.
In Dubai, all tenancy contracts must be registered with Ejari.
This protects both tenant and landlord under RERA regulations.
Once settled, keep contact with your landlord or agent for any support.
Report issues promptly to maintain a comfortable and happy stay.
