With a view to the expatriate lifestyle in this region Dubai and the Middle East, there are many people who still find it a logical not to buy- given their way of life. There are 4 main groups to be identified that are often found renting:

Single young professionals who rent not quite sure which direction their life is taking and renting suits their lifestyle.

Professional Shares suit greatly those who relocate frequently according to their work location, are not ready to strike out on their own and are attracted by the lifelines of shared houses. In addition for many young sharers there are not many other options, being priced out of the market especially with ever increasing rental prices.

Students are increasingly becoming a popular target for the rental market as accommodation that is provided by the university is limited and student numbers for this region are expected to exceed the availability of units.

The corporate rental market is booming as landlords are waking up to the fact that a whopping premium can sometimes be gained from leasing property on short term let. Major blue chip companies are always looking to house people in temporary accommodation for the duration of a contract or project. These are people who will rent a higher end of the market, often coming to work in the UAE from abroad.

Couples will normally try and live together before they buy a place of their own or “divorcees” normally resist the temptation to immediately buy a new home for themselves and rent for a while.
