I have only read the details of the Dubai short-term rental managers. There is one called Deluxe Holiday Homes that looked good, but their rating on Booking.com is only 7.1.
I don't know so much about Dubai, but i stayed in Al Hamra for a bit, in the Royal Breeze buildings. It seemed to me that many of these︀ were empty. I guess that many are used as vacation apartments or rentals, but I︁ see few on AirBnB. At night there aren't many lights on in them. I could︂ also see a number of balconies (from my balcony) were heavily covered in bird excrement,︃ which is a problem there.
If anyone is thinking of buying in Al Hamra Vllage︄ I would rent there for one month before you decide if it is a good︅ idea.
I have no ties to my home country (UK).︈ No medical or dental arrangements, no bank accounts, no property, no bills. I am worried︉ about going back, due to possible harassment. But I don't plan to go back any︊ time soon or ever. I'd only go back to live on The Channel Islands.
I have no plan to live in Dubai or UAE. But it's always possible. So it︋ will be - spend 2-4 weeks there per year. The plan would be to book︌ out the property that is managed for vacation rentals whenever that is, probably January &︍ July.
I am thinking to settle in Russia or Ukraine. I feel more at home︎ in Ukraine, but in Russia the chances of my children being induced into LGBT ideology️ and everything else they are pushing is zero.
It's not a bad life.
