Hi,

Committing to renting or buying accommodation when you聮re new to or have not moved to Maldives just yet is always a stressful endeavour. Would you like to help us in putting together a handbook of what to look out for when house hunting in Maldives?

What are the most common scams in Maldives?

What are the red flags to look out for when scanning through adverts?

Is there a list of registered or accredited landlords or real estate agencies in Maldives?

What authorities should be sought should one come across an accommodation scam?

Please share your experience,

Bhavna

Hi Bhavna,
I am French living now in Berlin, i will go to the Maldives in July this year, following my Wife who has a new position there. We are currently looking for an accommodation there. Probably on Hulumale. Any information about the things to avoid.聽
Cheers
Olivier
