Are these RENTAL Amounts negotiable?

Dudes,

I am moving to Qatar in less than couple of months time. I have seen tons of ads here in QatarLiving.com and I would say it is one of the best among such portals.

So what I would like to know is, Is these rental amounts posted by Landlords/Real estatate agents are negotiable or NOT. If negotiable, what is the average level of negotiation which might be applicable on the published/advertised rental amount.

Any help/reply shall be greatly appreciated.

Rgds,

SAK

Yes , you can . My recent experienec is that the agent jack up the price for getting better commission ( you have to pay half month commission ) . If you pressurize you may get a better deal. It depends on your negotiation skill .

Now a days it seems they are 100% Nego. Because there are Numbers of empty Villas/flats for rent in Qatar but with very less takers. Thats why maybe you observed that rents decreased alot specially from last 6/7 months. Now you have lot of choices. If incase you are not satisfied with one regarding rent or flats condition than you have no. of choices inthat case.Here in Ql.com almost 80% of ads are from rent agents.

GoodLuck

Some ads are posted by building owners. They are likely to be fixed. Some are leased by the lenders themselves. They may be negotiable.

Most things are negotiable in Doha. Regarding prices, you need to look at a few different types of properties then you will get an idea of price range based on location, quality and facilities. Its best to spend a couple of weeks visiting different properties until you are satisfied with one that suites you best.
