Moving out for the first time is a major milestone – one that can be both exciting and overwhelming.
In this episode of How to Adult, host Hala Nasar shares her rollercoaster experience of finding her first apartment.
She’s joined by real estate expert Alessia Sheglova, chief executive of Dacha Real Estate, who offers a practical guide to renting in the UAE. From budgeting tips to what to look for in a lease agreement, Alessia answers the questions that need asking before signing a rental contract.
In the audio episode, Hala is also joined by Aaina Pahwa, a content creator who viewed nearly 100 homes before finally settling on one. She talks about what she has learnt about being selective, knowing your deal-breakers and trusting the process.
