From keys to comfortable
Furnishing your new home
Furnished or unfurnished, full-service or DIY — how to fit out your Dubai home without burning cash on things you'll regret.
Overview
Furnished places cost 15–25% more in rent but skip the upfront capital and the chaos of furnishing while jet-lagged. Unfurnished gives you AED 15,000–30,000+ of setup spending but a home that actually fits you.
Most unfurnished apartments include the main kitchen appliances — but not always. Always confirm before signing.
