I have just joined this forum and have a question for the long time expats of Dubai. I am in search of a 5 bedroom house in Dubai. I came across Dubizzle and saw that there are more than 500 villas for rent across Dubai, with most centering around AL Barsha, the Ranch, Jumeirah ie. extremely residential areas. Therein lies my question, with so many villas for rent (it does seemed at a glance that supply exceeds demand, please do correct me if I am wrong), is it potentially possible that the rental market has to devalue in the near future. Unless,of course, these properties are owned by the native Dubaiians who are not really price sensitive. Lastly, are rents at all subject to negotiation. Thanks for any heñp and replies out there.
