You can apply through Ministry of Energy and Infrastructure, Abu Dhabi Housing Authority or Mohammed bin Rashid Housing Establishment. Find out more on the page about housing authorities and programmes.
Expatriate residents in the UAE can search for available accommodation using local newspapers and magazines, or through registered real estate brokers (agents) or through private property websites. Rent rates depend on the location and size of the property to be rented. Find more information on leasing an accommodation across the UAE.
