Should I buy or rent a home in Dhaka?
If you have not spent a lot of time in Dhaka, you should rent before even thinking about buying. We asked expats there about the buy vs. rent decision...
"Buying a home in Dhaka can be a great investment, as the city is growing rapidly and property values are increasing. However, it is important to consider the cost of living in Dhaka, as well as the availability of housing. Renting a home in Dhaka can be a more affordable option, and it can also provide more flexibility if you are not sure how long you will be living in the city. Additionally, renting can be a good option if you are not ready to commit to a long-term purchase. Ultimately, the decision to buy or rent a home in Dhaka should be based on your individual needs and financial situation," wrote a member who made the move to Dhaka, Bangladesh.
