Your Guide to the Apartments for Rent in Dubai

Dubai has one of the most thriving job markets in the region, a comfortable lifestyle, and tax-free income, making it a hotspot for expats from all over the world.

As a global city and a major business hub of the Middle East, career opportunities are constantly on the rise, which attracts an influx of new residents all the time.

Not only that, but it’s also a major tourist hub with some of the most impressive attractions in the world, such as lofty shopping malls like the Dubai Mall and the tallest buildings like the Burj Khalifa. 

As a result, there’s an increasing demand for rental properties in Dubai, especially for apartments, which are the most popular property type here.

Lifestyle in a Dubai Apartment for Rent

Living in an apartment in Dubai provides a more luxurious lifestyle than in many parts of the world. Most apartment buildings have a gym, swimming pool, 24/7 security, covered parking, kids’ play areas, and on-site maintenance.

Some are even more luxurious, providing sweeping sea views and panoramic vistas from skyscrapers. Moreover, services are generally easy to find, as there are supermarkets, clinics, and schools around most neighborhoods.

Public transportation is accessible with the Dubai Metro, which provides affordable and easy access to key neighborhoods and attractions. Luckily, there are plenty of apartments for rent in Dubai near the Metro.

Types of Flats for Rent in Dubai

There's a wide range of flats for rent in Dubai. Everything from studios to penthouses is available, with the most popular options being studio, 1, 2, and 3-bedroom apartments. Units can be furnished or unfurnished and rented on a long- or short-term basis, and tenants can opt for affordable or luxury apartments for rent in Dubai.

  • Studio apartments: The average size of a studio apartment here is 330 sq ft to 700 sq ft. These are the most affordable types of Dubai apartments for rent and are popular among bachelors.
  • 1-bedroom apartments: A 1-bedroom flat in Dubai ranges from 750 sq ft to 1300 sq ft on average. These units are versatile and can suit an individual or a couple, depending on the size. Some come with 2 bathrooms and a balcony for those who need more space.
  • 2-bedroom apartments: 2-bedroom apartments come at an average size of 1350 sq ft - 2000 sq ft. They’re ideal for small families.
  • 3-bedroom apartments: 3-bedroom apartments in Dubai range from 1,400 sq ft to 2,400 sq ft, making them ideal for larger families.
  • Fully furnished apartments: Fully furnished apartments include everything, like a sofa, a bed with a mattress, appliances, a dining table, and a dresser.
  • Partly furnished apartments: a partly furnished apartment would have only appliances such as a fridge, washing machine, cooker, and oven. Some partly furnished apartments also have living room furniture.
  • Unfurnished apartments: Unfurnished apartments have no furnishings at all except for kitchen cabinets and built-in wardrobes in most apartments.

The prices of these apartments for rent in Dubai differ from one area to another. This is based on many factors, such as location, facilities, and property size. Not only that, but the rental duration and amount of furnishing also impact the price of apartments. 

What Does Chiller Free Mean in Dubai?

A chiller-free apartment in Dubai is an apartment where the tenant does not have to pay air conditioning bills, as the landlord handles them, so they only have to pay their electricity and water bills to DEWA (Dubai Electricity & Water Authority). This saves you the trouble of creating an account with the utility company and helps you cut costs when the AC bills increase in the summer.

Best Areas to Find Dubai Apartments for Rent

People looking for a flat to rent in Dubai have different preferences. Some want luxurious options while others prefer an affordable home. Other concerns include pet-friendliness, the number of bedrooms, the atmosphere, greenery, and access to transportation.

Upfront fees to consider before renting an apartment in Dubai

Renting an apartment in Dubai comes with initial fees that you need to account for, mainly: 

  • Security deposit: 5% of the yearly rental for an unfurnished apartment and 10% for a furnished apartment.
  • Real estate agency fees: usually around 5% of the first annual rent, and it could be more.
  • Housing Fee (Dubai Municipality Fee): 5% of the annual rent paid in 12 months as a part of the DEWA bill.
  • Ejari: Ejari fees differ depending on whether you pay them online or offline. If offline at the trustees center, then you’ll pay around 220 AED with VAT. 
  • DEWA: AED 2000 security deposit for an apartment, activation charges: AED 130 for small meters, and AED 330 for large meters.

How Much Does it Cost to Rent a Flat in Dubai?

The housing fee is added to the monthly DEWA bill.

Can you Rent an Apartment in Dubai without an Emirates ID?

No, you need an Emirates ID to rent an apartment in Dubai since it's proof of your residency in the UAE. Moreover, an Emirates ID is required for multiple processes involved in renting an apartment, such as registering for Ejari and connecting DEWA.

How Much Can a Landlord Increase Rent by in Dubai?

RERA (Real Estate Regulatory Authority) updated its Rental Index in March 2025, which limits the annual rental increase based on the current rent’s percentage below the market value. 

  • No increase: if the current rent is less than 10% of the market value.
