A townhouse is a house of two or three floors that shares side walls with its neighbours, with its own front door and usually a small garden. It sits between an apartment and a detached villa on price, space and privacy (our townhomes guide). Three bedrooms is the usual family size: one room for parents, one each for children, or a study. Most stock is in master communities built around the format, so you also get parks, pools and schools close by.
The u.ae leasing guide says Dubai charges a 5% housing fee on yearly rent, some brokers charge up to 5% commission, and lease registration is compulsory to connect utilities.
