My friends and I are looking to rent an apartment in the Dubai Marina for one year. We are unmarried women who are not related. Is it even legal for us to share an apartment if we are not related? I understand only one of us can have our name on the rent contract. We will divide the rent equally among us. Since the rent contract will be under my name, I am worried that I could be held liable if something goes wrong. Is there any way I can make my two potential roommates sign a legal agreement holding them liable for any rent arrears, damages to apartment etc, too?
Pursuant to your questions, we assume that the landlord is not interested to make you and your two friends party to the tenancy contract and therefore you are singly signing the tenancy contract with the landlord. Once you sign the tenancy contract and issue the rent cheques to the landlord, you will be solely responsible if anything happens in the rented premises as you are the lawful tenant.
However, it is suggested that you inform the landlord that two of your friends are going to reside with you and you obtain the written consent of the landlord to this effect. In the event your friends don't pay their share of rent to and damages the apartment, you will be held responsible. Further you may contact the Dubai Real Estate Regulatory Authority.
KNOW THE LAW
"It is suggested that you inform the landlord that two of your friends are going to reside with you and you obtain the written consent of the landlord to this effect."
"You are not liable to pay your employer anything if you serve the notice period and resign in accordance with the provisions of your employment contract."
