Malin and Jakob

Hey! We are two Swedish digital nomads - that love to explore the world!

We started our KZread channel to show our every day life, to give our best tips and explain how we ended up where we are today, working fully remote and traveling the world.

One video per week, subscribe to our channel if you feel like it :)

Thank you for being a part of this amazing journey!

    Great area, $250.000 is actually almost 1 million dirham! So its a good value property but not the cheapest one. The xheapest district must be International City

    It all depends on your price points. There are a lot of other areas where you can buy for a cheaper price. 😊

    Hello, this is a great video full of information. Thanks for that. Nevertheless, I have a question about it. You talked about dating in Dubai. Please imagine a man from Europe has found his woman in Dubai and the two fall in love with each other. The two want to live together in Europe . But now the woman has a minor son from a previous relationship with a man who also lives in Dubai. Can this cause stress when they moving to Europe or does the father let his child go with his ex-wife without any problems? How are such relationships handled in Dubai?

    Hi guys, nice video and investment. How is and the nearby area developing? Can you share some prospective figures of short and long term rentals please? Do you have an ideas on the forecasta of the area for the futurs? Thanks guys 🙏👍

  • @MalinandJakob
    @MalinandJakob19 күн бұрын

    Thank you so much! 🙏 We believe that all of Dubai South has massive potential with all the new developments. The area is shifting to a more high-end community. This impacts the prices for both short- and long-term rentals. We advice checking Bayut for rental prices in Al Furjan. Right now, they have several interesting developments along the metro line going out to Expo. A tip is to check out Nabni and Deyaar's projects. Have a look at our Expo video for more details on that area. We will also share more videos on our apartment closer to handover. Let us know if you have more questions 😊

    Can you give a breakdown of how you financed this please. Do they offer longterm mortgages for long terms like they do in Europe or do they expect cash buyers?

  • @MalinandJakob
    @MalinandJakob26 күн бұрын

    There are several options. The developers tends to have payments plans, where you split payments until handover. For example 80% during the constructions and 20% at the handover. Typical you can't take a mortgage until the property is fully developed. However, if you buy a property that is already completed, you can get a mortgage like in Europe. Getting a mortgage from a bank in UAE is a completely different story. Usually, you need a full time employer in the UAE and you need to make a certain amount of salary. We are planning to make a video on this subject.

    Difficult to compare the two. We love Stockholm and definitely recommend everyone to visit, especially in the summer months. It has a long history with charming architecture which is difficult to compete with. Dubai is completely different and has a lot of upside. It is modern, things work, great for networking, the sun and beaches are also a big plus 😊 Also, from our experience, people are very welcoming and friendly.
