HELLO THERE!
Can anyone please tell me how much it would cost to rent a 1-bedroom apartment or villa (if 1-bedroom is available), complete with amenities such pool and gym and located in a nice area in Doha. I read some places ask for QR20,000 to QR25,000 ($5480-$6850), is this per year or per month? Oh my I hope it's per year! Knowing this figure will help me in negotiating for a salary package with this EPC company offering me a position with their company.
Exaramcon, I'm afraid it will be very difficult for you to get accommodation for QR5500 (or USD1500), unless you're willing to share. You can find 1 very small one bedroom flats for QR6000 not furnished, but they are not easy to find. It's more likely that you'll pay QR7000 or QR7500 for a one bedroom fully furnished, and, I warn you, they are not easy to find. But if you do look hard enough, you end up finding them.
mbijlee, thanks for your response. It comes to me as a shock how ridiculously costly it is to rent in Doha, can you please tell me, what kind of accomodation will $1500 per month will buy me? For sure I will not be paying $50K per month, that's insane. Was wondering who will pay this absurd amount? I will probably do not have to negotiate the salary with my potential employer knowing such horror stories. Thanks again.
IN CITY AREA 1 B/R FLAT IS BETWEEN 6K TO 7K FULLY FURNISHED. VILLA NORMALLY NOT AVAILABLE IN 1 B/R.
YES IT IS RIGHT SOME POSH AREA, WEST BAY 1 B/R FULLY FURNISHED FLAT WITH BODY GUARD IS 50,000 QR PER MONTH.
U CAN GET OTHER MIDDLE EAST AREAS 20K - 25K PER YEAR FOR 1BR FLAT.
