Before renting a property in Dubai, consider the following checklist to ensure you find the best option:

Preference Definition
Determine your top five preferences, including location, budget, amenities, property age, and whether it’s furnished or unfurnished.
Project Shortlist
Identify the most suitable projects or communities.
Online Research
Check online ads and familiarize yourself with the largest real estate agencies. Consult with a real estate agent to get a better understanding of different areas.
Reviews
Read available Google reviews on the company and agent you're considering.
Property Selection
Shortlist the best 5 to 8 properties. Start from a range of options and then proceed in narrowing down your options later based on viewings.

Property Viewing

• Inspect the property thoroughly: Look for signs of damage, leaks, or faulty appliances. Check the water pressure, air conditioning, and electrical outlets.
• Ask questions: Don't hesitate to ask the agent about anything unclear, such as maintenance procedures, pet policies, or noise levels from traffic or construction.
• Pay attention to details: Consider factors like natural light, storage space, overall layout, and any built-in furniture that may or may not be included.
• Take pictures and videos: Document the property's condition for future reference, especially if you notice any potential issues.

Rental Price Check
Use DXBinteract to check rental prices: Search for rented properties by project name and property type.

Tenancy Contract Review
Understand your tenancy contract, focusing on renewal, termination, maintenance, property management, and contract start date.
