Is it true that the house rent in Qatar started coming down? Any indication anybody experienced that? I am looking for a flat in Doha.

Real Estate agents are to blame ....

Keeping flats empty to create a fake demand so people will opt to stay in expensive flats...

Govt must impose tax on empty flats#villas to tackle this menace...

Uncessary unwarranted hikes in rents still happens till date... although the laws forbid....

What goes up ... never come down [applied to those rental prices] ...

I want someone to explain to me this, you are paying 6000 Q.R for rent and complain about nothing and let's say ... not happy with it but got no option ... what would made the landlord who is taking this amount come to u and say, it is ok now to pay 4000 Q.R ...

You got my point? If nothing would be there to force them then it would never happen ...

Let's just keep dreaming ...

Hope is already dead ...

kakka, because there are NO 2 br flats for 4000... It could be a stinky nest, remote tent in desert, rickety hut, miserable portcabin.. whatever you want, but you cannot call "2 BR flat" anything for 4000... so relax and keep paying your 7000, and feel lucky it's still low comparing to other...

vmakunhi, don't "observe the trend" over newspapers.. go and take a look at these creatures...you will cry...

DaRuDe and the gang you guys are the perfect hijackers..

Ajinasma1, Rents are neither coming down nor going up, but there is some room for negotiation with properties being available, all depends on you if you want to look around and find something within your budget..Good Luck.

I have personaly observing the trend time to time verifying the ads in almost all media available, and I have discovered the rentals for the flats/houses which was QR. 7500/- is now 4000/- and to visualise this I strongly recommend people to have a look at hypermarkets advertising board outside, or cooperative stores in Qatar, etc. that the land lords looting or exploiting the demand is being continuosuly declining every week, and still it has to come down, so keep waiting more and there can be some dramatic changes I predict that the rental for two bed room flats new would be available soon at the rate of QR. 2500/- per month without any worries.
