Attached, Semi-detached and Private Townhouses
Townhouses are generally built in a series or clusters with shared facilities. The attached properties share a wall and some outdoor space. In contrast, a semi-detached unit has one wall connected to the next. These properties are generally pricier than the former. Those who prefer complete privacy can explore options among private townhouses for rent in Dubai.
Simplex, Duplex and Triplexes
Some locations like Palm Jumeirah and Dubai South include duplex and triplex townhouses with slightly higher rents than others. Mostly, these are ready-to-move-in furnished units.
Rent-To-Own
Rent-to-own schemes are an alternative option to buying property outright. Some landlords and developers offer this service for townhouses, where tenants pay a monthly rent as a deposit for a fixed period. After the period, tenants can own the property on a freehold basis. It's a feasible solution for people who cannot afford to buy a property outright and prefer a more affordable payment plan.
