Expat apartment hunt in Riyadh: pet-friendly + separate kitchen = impossible?
Hey everyone
My husband and I are currently apartment hunting in Riyadh, preferably North Riyadh, and honestly we’re starting to feel like we’re asking for the impossible 😂
Our requirements are:
- Budget around 3000 SAR max
- Decent/clean apartment
- Pet-friendly because we have a small Griffon dog 🐶
- AND PLEASE… a separate kitchen 😭 not one of those kitchens inside the living room lol
Are these requirements actually unrealistic in Riyadh these days?
Would really appreciate any advice from people who already went through this:
- Best areas in North Riyadh for this budget?
- Good real estate offices or brokers to deal with?
- Apps/websites/Facebook groups you recommend?
- Any red flags to avoid with brokers or landlords?
Would love to hear your experiences because the search process is honestly exhausting 😅
