I recently visited Dubai and was impressed with the massive building projects being undertaken. Has anyone out there actually purchased a place in Dubai? I'm thinking of doing just that but could do with some advise

I've been to Dubai, I thought it was a poo-hole, the people are horrible and I pretty much hated it there. The airport was like it from the 1950s and basically was like an overcrowded slum. Why would you want to move there? To move there don't you need citizenship first? The best place to go is have a look on some Dubai estate agent websites. Then you can get a feel for prices and location. Remember if you want to live in the "rich" part of Dubai, which is where all the nice building are, it would cost tons to move there. So if your not that wealthy your just end up in the rest of the place, which is like a giant slum. lol Anyway, don't listen to me, I'm in an angry mood because there's no food in the house. lol C ya, and good luck :)

I been working in dubai for 2 years and I knew the standard of life there and the belief. Its a quite strick country and people there seems not nice except of christian people. most of people live there is muslim but Its 100% percent so clean country and the buildings are amazing..Now they built up new buildings and its very beautiful so expensive to live there and yet the property so high value.

hi I am from Dubai, UAE. Dubai is a good place if you are in good position job wise. Only then u can afford to live in dubai city. The rents are high. So almost 90% of people woorking in dubai, lives in Sharjah who travels everyday to and fro. If you want to know more about dubai, please ask. My husband us here since 10 years and myself since 5 years. So, I will help you with whatever I know. I added you as a friend at first regarding the forex, then found your post regarding dubai. so i thought of replying to it. Have a nice day!
