Unfurnished Apartment Rental in Doha vs Semi-Furnished Apartments - What is the Difference?
Apartments advertised as unfurnished come with no furnishings at all. This differs from other countries where unfurnished relates specifically to 'furniture' only like beds, sofas, dining table, etc.
In Qatar's real estate market, when a property is listed as unfurnished, there are no appliances in the kitchen (only fitted kitchen cabinetry). Sometimes, there are no fixed air conditioning units or fitted wardrobes in the bedrooms either. You will be renting an apartment with bare rooms.
It is vital to consider this when searching for a home, as the cost to purchase these items must be considered when budgeting for rental accommodation.
If you want these items included, look for semi-furnished apartments for rent instead; at least they will have some essential things included, like air-conditioning, which is necessary for the long and humid Doha summers. Always check what exactly is included in the apartment you are renting.
Some Doha apartments advertised as furnished apartments may also offer the same accommodation as unfurnished. You, as the tenant, can choose how to take the apartment as the landlord is flexible.
The Cost of Unfurnished Apartments
Unfurnished studios in Doha are probably the cheapest apartment you can get in Doha. Although the monthly rental on unfurnished apartments for rent is often cheaper than furnished apartments, once the furniture cost is factored in, one can sometimes end up paying more overall per month. Of course, there are many things one must take into account, like the duration of the tenancy, the condition of the furniture, and the difference in the monthly/annual rental price.
