No i think the real estate agents usually take their commision. I have given it as well. This is only way to find a good accomodation becasue the ads for good accomodation usually dont appear in the news paper or in QL.
About the one year advance issue, yes i agree it is totally insane for the person to give it in advance . Although the company i work for issues this kind of loan to it's employees with no interest but even then i did not get it althoug a three bed room new fully furnised apartment was costing me 5500 QR per month near old airport. This one year advance is suitable for companies only which wants to secure the accomodation for its employees.
