What advice would you give someone preparing to move to your area about the actual move, choosing a neighborhood and finding a home?
No doubt. Certainly Oman is wonderful place to spend life if you are nature lover and believe in family life. The best location to move in are Al Khuwair, Al -Athaibah, Al Seeb and Al Qurum. These are decent locations with shopping mall in close vicinity.
What type of housing do you live in? Is this typical for most expats in your area?
Not really. Rents are high so mostly expats prefer to stay in 1 BHK and manage.
How did you choose your neighborhood and find your home or apartment?
Well, I got my accommodation through my employer in decent location. The apartment was spacious and well furnished with all basic amenities provided.
Are your housing costs higher or lower than they were in your home country? What is the average cost of housing there?
It is very much higher than our home country almost 3 times.
