Hi everyone!

I am planning to move to Tripoli next month and I am looking at renting a flat somewhere in the city, i guess rather downtown.
By looking at few websites, I found out that rents are incredibly expensive in Tripoli, so I was wondering whether you had tips on how to find a flat there, and what is the average rent to pay for a medium size flat.

I will be living just with my husband, so we do not need a villa or a massive house.

I will very much appreciate if some of you could help me on this!

Thanks a lot!

Hi Yaklef,

I will be in Tripoli for a job yes, and I will be looking for a long term flat, but I can go for a short term at the beginning.

Hi Sashae,
If you are group of people or many families I can offer to you many houses as full compound with swimming pool and every thing.
Thanks, regards

Hi Hakim,

Thanks for your offer, but I do not want to spend 2000 dollars a month on my rent, it just way too much for me.
I am rather looking for a flat to rent downtown, as we will just be two living in the house.

Would you have any recommendations on that?

Thanks

Hi Ibrahim!!

Thank you very much for your help and your offer that seems pretty interesting to me.

It would be to stay for at least a year, starting mid december.
Could you tell me a bit more about the place: Is there a living room? Is the place all furnished (frige, beds, stove wardrobes etc....)? and where is the exact location?

Thank you very much in advance, and I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Best,

Barbara

Hi Ibrahim!!

Thank you dearly for your reply highly detailed.

I am very much interested in your flat, but as I mentioned before, I won't be moving before mid-december. Would this be ok with you?
I guess the best would be to be in touch, and if you have pictures of the flat, that would be just great!

Let me know when and how I could contact you.

Best,

Barbara
