Hi Guys

was wondering if I can get some advice and heads up. I will be moving to Qatar in 1/2nd May. I will be provided with hotel accommodation for a week and then need to find my own accommodation.

Initially I will be moving on however once I have settled I may be looking to move my family over if I feel it is feasible. I have a wife and two young children..7 and 4.

My work place is in the West Bay area, however I have been told old doha would be an ideal place to rent... I have not got a clue on distances and logistics of travel... can someone please advise..

much appreciated.

I live in Al Sadd. There are a lot of new apartments here and it is a convenient location. I don't know what the rents are like though

nowadays realestate business i down so dont worry u wil get good flat or villa in low price.

if u work in westbay then u should choose dafana , duhail or gharrafa , markhiya area for your resident. old doha is not good becuase of traffice and crowed of people and its not clean too . although the rent is cheap.
