real estate in Dubai

I am a Canadian from Montreal and have been living in Dubai for a while. I know the inside out of the Real Estate market in Dubai as well as rental. If you're new to Dubai or thinking of coming.drop in any questions and I will gladly try to help. I speak French and English and i can assist you with any queries you may have about housing in the UAE.

What is the price range for a two bed room apartment in Dubai/Abu Dhabi?

I know it depends on many factors but still I would like to get a rough estimate. I am not looking for a very luxerious building something reasonably good within a good neighborhood will work.

Also what usually is required to buy property in UAE? What are the side expenses and what is the required to get mortgage from bank. All details related to buying property will be helpful.

thanks

Hi there,

Looking at moving to AD in June/July 08 from Calgary. What are good neighbourhoods close to Canadian, American International or American community schools. Price range & potential availability for 3 BR appt or villa will be much appreciated.

Thanks,
Maks
