Popular areas to rent in Dubai based on your salary.
There are perhaps very few places with as much variety as Dubai when it comes to real estate. From compact studios to massive mansions, there’s something for everyone in this cosmopolitan haven. It’s that multitude of choice that prompted us to put together this handy guide to the most popular areas to rent in Dubai based on your salary. The hope is that this guide will help you find a home in the best residential neighbourhoods of Dubai that suit your specific budget.
HOW MUCH DO YOU NEED TO SPEND ON ACCOMMODATION?
To come up with the most accurate options, we have shortlisted areas based on the idea that most people spend 40% to 50% of their income on housing. We also believe that you need a minimum salary of AED 5,000 per month or a housing allowance of AED 2,000 to be able to rent a property in Dubai on your own.
Before you decide on your rental home, it’s essential to know that landlords in Dubai require you to pay the rent either as one annual payment or as bi-yearly or quarterly post-dated cheques. Although it’s not too common, you may find some great annual rental offers where you can pay the rent in 12 cheques.
