Re: Mirdif
Also, was speaking to someone today who told me 'sharing' was now legal which i didn't know. Will be interested to see prices, or hear from anyone recently moved into a shared villa there and how it goes etc.

Re: Mirdif
How about your very own studio apartment in glamorous International City for only AED35,000 per year?

ok so between 4-5k p month is the going rate for a shared villa.. hmm...I think my allowance covers the lower end of that, 48kpa, so it might be doable.
i'll keep my eye out on that board too. How does the arrangement work with rent sharing and payment then? Pay the person who has the tenancy agreement with the owner. With people leaving i might be hopping around a bit.
in regards to international city, don't know much about it. but i am lookin to meet more single ppl in dubai and get out and do more, so sharing a villa would be more preferable to a studio.
thanks for the figures.

Re: Mirdif
Unless there's a particular reason to limit yourself to villas, look at shared apartments too... plenty around in the Marina these days, and you'd probably find something at 4k now rental prices are coming down.

Re: Mirdif
yeah the thing is that I am working in Sharjah, near the Institute of technology.
If i go for Mirdif, getting to and from work is really easy.
Would love to be out on Marina side, but impossible
