aahhh.. so it's again, it's not that rents are falling down! it is just they build more miserable and remote places and still offer them for the ridiculous prices… ..Here is another example. My friend lives in some compound in 3BR duplex. She rented it 1 year ago for 13,000. Now, exactly at the same compound, at the same block there is other 3br duplex available, but with the different layout. The rooms are much smaller than her rooms, the furniture is not really high quality..and today it’s offered for 14,000. THAT’S what shows me that the prices are NOT going down. You have to compare the SAME type of the accommodation, and then you will see that the rent is still very high. Another sample, the 2BR FF flat that I rented upon my arrival to Doha (2 years ago) for 7500, then became 8000, then 8500. Today THE SAME flat it’s offered for 9000. That’s what shows me that the prices are NOT going down. You cannot compare some miserable remote hole with the luxurious central apartment and try to prove that prices went down.
I can agree that, as I said, now they build much more these poor holes, and offer them for the lower prices… but again, that’s how much these poor holes are really worth, or even less…
