Four days to make sense of Dubai neighbourhoods: where to live with a family, where to buy for rental and how a new development differs from a finished home. Viewings, meetings with agents and an evening by the water.
Who it is for
- People buying to let
- Families considering a move to Dubai
- Anyone choosing between a new development and a finished home


Dubai grows fast and new districts appear every few years. On the ground it is much easier to judge the commute, noise, schools and everyday life of an area than from renderings.
Meetings with specialists take place after the viewings, so your questions are about what you have actually seen.
- Flats in Dubai Marina and Downtown
- Villas and apartments on Palm Jumeirah
- Family neighbourhoods and new developments
