Unless you are reading today's Gulf Times, in which case you'll find a prediction that rents are due to rise again in 2010:

"Amidst the new supply of apartments, residential rental rates in Qatar are projected to witness upward revision by 2010 as the two-year rent freeze lapses, according to a recent study conducted by Global Investment House. "

Who knows what to believe?

Here are my 2 cents (borrowed)

They'll be entitled to increase but probably won't; if this news is true:

"Housing oversupply imminent"

dont talk stupid, ok?

I used to have a timber home. I much prefered it to the style here, but the climate here is different.

I can't imagine the cost of medium to high end accomodation rising due to excessive supply.

But given the success of the Barwa program there is quite clearly a lack of affordable housing at the lower end of the market. More cheap accomodation is being demolished than built, so I can only imagine that it will be the poorer sector of the market that is really going to suffer.

Westener dont have such houses there in their own country. Most of the US houses are woooden made...and when a storm like Katrina comes they are just swept away...we must have sympathy on them...

Majid give some charity for such people..we are human beings...

Landlords or greedylords....whatever????????

MO RIN...YUN LANG!!!

landlord will not decrease houserent of bloody westerners....

(sarcastic.... lol)

the mods had deleted the comments which is just right since majority of the comments are based on prejudice and ignorance.

anyways, i do hope that the landlords will not increase the rents. i mean, what are they thinking?! with the oversupply of housing here, they still believe they can get away with overpriced, faulty accommodations?

usapa na...

Silvia where have u been ..???? i am expecting your comments on the same..

all are gone bro

here?
