Regetta has many house types but in general.
1+1 old houses 1200 LD
1+2 old houses 1800 LD
4+1 old villas near 3000-4000 LD
3+1 new villas 6000 LD
4+1 new villas 10000 LD

Old houses and villas needs a lot of maintanance and if you don't have an insider, there is 150 persons waiting list for the small ones.

I'm not sure about the Palm city but I heard that the cheapest house is for 2500 Euros.

And for Regeta you must pay for 1 year and 1 year contract not more.

There are those who prefer the convenience of living in dolls house sized apartments (unless your company is extremely generous with the housing allowance), on holiday complex type estates, with lots of other expats for company. You can even play "pass the gin & tonic" from balcony to balcony.

And there are others who prefer to live in a much larger villa, with own swimming pool and privacy in a very quiet location.

Horses for courses.

I like not having to go past Nazi Stormtroopers to get to my house. (although Palm City has smart, polite and efficient security, while Regatta has scruffy, Neanderthal, jobsworth goons - and that's being generous)

Surely, he could've taken them all down if he'd wanted to!

They're just being wankers because he's staying with me and one of the guards (the one who groped me a few months back) doesn't like it.聽 And never mind him taking them down, when I get home from work i'll be knocking some arseholes out...

Too cliche of Libyans. They're completely useless otherwise.

Take a deep breath. Try to calm down a little and be clever about it, if you play it right you may even get some of them fired or jailed.

Hey flipfinger, was it one of those black mofos that roam around in Regata and inform security of what goes on in each street?

Can you believe this, they have mofos wondering in each street in Regata. I had a quarrel once with one of them telling me to drive slow, I was going dead slow!!!

No it was the megalomaniacal goons on the main gate... delightful specimens of genepools gone wrong that they are...

I'm working on calm.聽 I'm just not sure how long it will last.

I feel a handy photoshopcreateapass moment coming up...

i am not quite sure that the colour of their skin has a bearing on their propensity for being 'mofos'. you say it so casually too.聽聽 sigh.....

A goon is a goon, irrespective of what colour skin they have.聽 Personally, I've never had any problems whatsoever with the street guards and I don't give a crap what colour they are, as long as you're nice to me i'm nice back.

The guards on the front gate, however, are power-hungry little twazzocks who should all be sacked.聽 I'm sick and tired of hearing how they're protecting us for our own good, because I don't see any protecting going on when random locals pull up alongside me in their cars shouting 'hey lady, I like to party with you, get in, get in'..聽 There's no protection when one of the same guards grabs your left tit because, well, surely all western women are whores, and we wont mind that in the slightest.聽 And there's also no protection when you are informed that your home is actually, like a hotel room, which they can come into whenever they feel like it.

The fiancee actually got a mouthful for wearing shorts... can you believe this shit??聽 I see locals wearing shorts all the time, but yeah, give my bloke a load of crap... self-righteous megalomaniacal fucktards...

Sure I do believe, it did happen to me also, when I was trying to enter Souq-al-thalatha mall few months ago .... moral code protector with motorola couldn't stand my shorts on.Even if I showed him others inside with the same clothes on, he always found an excuse to prevent me in. So I simply went out on other side and got in without any problems.... gorilla stayed out.
