Re: We have found a new home!
We bought a house at JV Cirle and they are saying they'll all be handed over by this Dec.
We went up at the weekend for a look and they are defo coming on. I see a big difference even from i was up about a month ago.
Fingers crossed!

Re: We have found a new home!
Hi guys,
Just a little update. Just got our Du back up and running.
Moved into our new apartment over the weekend. Really chuft.
We have a leak in the bathroom but the landlord is getting it fixed. These things are to be expected i guess.
Landlord seems like a really nice guy too. Let us put what we wanted in the contract so we got 2 months notice written in and we will get the remainder of the cheques/money back if we leave before the year is up so thats good.
He's had a couple of people skip/bounce cheques etc in other apartments he has so he would rather this and know people are leaving etc.
Anyway we're very happy and it's great my mam and dad now has their own room instead of the sofa bed.
Hope you are all well.

Hi FunnyFeline,
I think you'll just be a couple of streets up from me.
So will this be your first time in Dubai? Are you coming out with family?
I'm out of work at the moment so if you want to meet up for a coffee or something when you get here give me a shout.

You'll find something no probs
I see you were speaking about the Lakes. I would LOVE to stay there, out of our price range though. If i could stay anywhere in Dubai thats where i would stay.

Re: We have found a new home!
it is still out of our range, 180 on Maeen 2, too much, but you never know by June things might have dropped more

Re: We have found a new home!
I see on these pages that some people are finding good housing deals these days.
A question there: as a tennant - you found a cheaper place and you wanna move; can you do it if the landlord does not agree to that i.e., you cannot unilaterally break the contract. Would be interesting to see a case where a landlord takes the tennant to RERA becase he/she doesn;t want to continue to pay high rent

Re: We have found a new home!
How many of the people holding off until the end of the school year have actually advised their LL's that they are going? If they are giving 1-2 months notices to LL's, there should be a glut of adverts out on the market but, from what I can see there either isn't, or the villa's that they are relinquishing were all on the Palm etc, and are still over priced???

Hold off as long as you can, the prices can only go down.

I've already started browsing, you can pick up 2 beds in JLT for around 90k, you can even pick up a 2 bed in the Diamond towers for 50k! Although i've been told the Diamond towers are pretty shyte.
