I was fortunate enough to buy in 2004/2005 when prices were at 7,000/sq.m. so it won't take much to get a sweet yield. Have gotten two offers on my 2BR in tower 4 at 16k/17k but am holding out for 20k. Should get there as long as my fellow landlords don't panic -- Let's see how the market plays out. I am also expecting my 3BR in tower 9B later in the year which should fetch 23-25k as the place is massive at 270sq.m....I took a job in Dubai in August and live in Dubai Marina which is a nice lifestyle and I bet the Pearl will be just as sweet if not sweeter. I pay 30k/mo. for a 3BR in Dubai Marina so I have to think that the Pearl will be similarly priced when the dust settles...Am getting the itch to go back to Doha just to live in the Pearl! The pics my friends have sent me are impressive and everyone that has visited has been raving about it so it should be ok.
