Welcome to the forums!
Is the 6,500 AED per month a stagnant salary or will you be able to earn overtime and commision for real estate work? Living alone, 6,500 AED can be enough if you live quite far away but the bills can sometime overwhelm you.

Taking into account accommodation, which will be your biggest hurdle. It could be anywhere from 1,000 AED/month - 4,000 AED a month. Adding car rental or bank payments for buying a car and you could be in a possible tight situation. However, it is possible with careful planning. Not enough for leisure and enjoying yourself but good enough for a possible 1,000AED to be saved a month.

I wouldn't relocate if it's stagnant, but if you can earn commission then it would be double.
