Yet more property related laws to be introduced in Dubai
According to “The National,” a major Dubai newspaper, Dubai is expected to release yet another set of laws governing the property industry. There is a growing number of disputes between small property investors and developers in Dubai and prices continue to fall. This is what The National has to say:
The amount of property for sale in Dubai is now having a strong effect of rental yields. Unable to sell, many owners are putting their property on the market as a rental unit instead. This is having a marked effect on rents. RERA (The Real Estate Regulatory Authority) published its new guidelines, showing a 50% fall in rents in certain areas of Dubai and Landmark’s report this month shows a further 30% fall in Palm Jumeirah and recommends even cheaper rents than RERA’s. This is good news for prospective tenants, and suggests we still have some way to go before Dubai’s property crash bottoms out.
After months of press releases and government promises that there will be no such thing as a bubble in Dubai, the big boys of Dubai are finally saying, “Beam me up Scotty, I think I’m in trouble.”
