hafthab345 what property boom are you talking about? Are you that deluded that you think we are in one or one is approaching? Man wake up from your DREAM!! There is far more supply than demand with only more properties been built....we all know Qatar WON'T win the 2022 WC so thats not going to affect anything. The banks are still NOT lending at the moment despite what the papers are saying so where are the buyers going to come from? As ex-pats we have very little rights if any, and the property boom is long gone so anyone thinking of investing here is either very brave or a mug!
