During the first quarter, Abu Dhabi’s real estate market saw an average decline of 5 to 15 percent in apartment rents with significant quantities of new supply under construction this downward trend is set to continue.
According to the report, affordability has put a ceiling on villa rents in the emirate, with declines in rents particularly at the upper end of the market, and demand for office space remains subdued with potential tenants adopting a wait and see strategy in expectation of further price reductions.
Asteco said it has seen low leasing take-up rates amongst new developments which have been handed over in the last three months or are due for imminent completion.
