Hi

I am planning to move to Doha, would like to have your thoughts on below points.

1) How is Doha as a city to stay in for Indians
2) Can you recommend places to stay preferably with sea view ( rental range that I should keep in mind)
3) Average monthly expense keeping in mind - daily groceries, food, local travel, full time helper internet and Indian channels etc etc
4) Any hidden cost that I need to be aware
5) what budget should I consider for having a mid range car ( new or second hand)
6) I heard that the person who is getting a job needs to be there in Qatar - Is thar true

Thanks for all your help.

Hello Dushyant
People of all nationalities are moving to Doha in quest for work.
There is lots of information, on cost of living, available on internet. Cost of housing is a major component. You may need to spend close to 12000 QAR for a 1 BHK fully furnished accommodation at your favoured locations. The rentals are likely to grow @7%
