What is the best way to search for homes in UAE?
We asked expats in UAE the best way to search for homes in UAE. They said...
"Expats in the UAE typically search for homes by using online real estate portals, such as Property Finder, Bayut, and JustProperty, which offer a wide range of listings from across the country. Additionally, expats can also search for homes through local real estate agents, who can provide more detailed information about the local market and help them find the perfect home. Finally, expats can also search for homes through social media platforms, such as Facebook and Instagram, which often feature listings from real estate agents and private sellers," said a member in UAE.

"Dubizzle is one of the best ways to find out what is out there. Great way to determine market value as well. All the listing services post on this site so you can choose which to work with based on the selection. Really, a one stop shop," remarked another expat who made the move to Dubai, UAE.
