My dream is to buy a 2nd property in Dubai. Do any moneysavers own property out there? Where do I start? What are the pros/cons? Can I get a mortgage to buy property abroad?
There is nothing I can be, do or HAVE!!!!!!!!

If you are buying it for yourself, hope you like hot weather0 -

I have spent a bit of time in Dubai and the middle east. The standard of construction in a lot of cases is poor because there is so much stuff being built so quickly.0
