so how do you like dubai? 8 years, if you dont mind me asking what do you do, what is life like in dubai expensive? What do you mean prices are different on paper do you mean you get more than what you ask or less? Did you rent out furnished apt or unfurnished?

Dubai is what you make of it, you can do most if not more than what you can do else where. With the decrease of the US dollar against most currencies, property in Dubai is even more attractive to overseas investors. Those of us paid in US Dollars/ Dirhams are really noticing the increased cost of living here. hard to work out what the real inflation rate is as the Government of Dubai insist that it is in single figures however Bank Sources regularly state it is in double figures
Simple, every one is open to negotiating. Prices asked in newspapers and magazines are not set in concrete. Economics supply and demand..... If your browsing the net or newspapers you will be able to negotiate a lower price than what is advertised with prices dipping in the warmer months this also includes rental properties.
Rented apartment partly furnished with a fridge and stove and curtains was able to get a tenant straight away. Word is getting out that International City is the cheapest place to rent in Dubai.
It would cost you around 2000 AED to put a stove,fridge and curtains in other wise you could rent it with none of the above however with so many on the market and so many to chose from......
