Real Estate in Sudan
Last updated on May 16, 2023
Summary: An expat looking to buy a home in Sudan should start by researching the local real estate market and contacting a local real estate agent. It is also important to research the local laws and regulations regarding foreign ownership of property. Homes in Sudan typically include basic amenities such as running water, electricity, and sewage systems. Many homes also have air conditioning, internet access, and other modern amenities. Foreigners are allowed to own property in Sudan, but there are certain restrictions. For example, foreigners are not allowed to own land in certain areas, and they must obtain permission from the government before purchasing a property. Additionally, foreigners are not allowed to own more than one property in Sudan.
How do I find a place to live in Sudan?
We asked expats how they chose their neighborhood and found a place to live. They answered:
"Finding a place to live in Sudan can be a challenge, but there are a few options available. One option is to look for rental properties in the major cities such as Khartoum, Omdurman, and Port Sudan. You can search online for rental listings or contact a local real estate agent for assistance. Another option is to look for furnished apartments or houses for rent in residential areas. You can also look for shared housing options such as student dormitories or hostels. Finally, you can look for short-term rental options such as Airbnb or Couchsurfing," explained one expat living in Sudan.
