This can be attributed to maturity of real estate sector. According to Bayut, the changes in the sale markets will have a positive bearing on the real estate market that is constantly fine-tuning its way towards maturity.

Speaking of Dubai, apartment rents across all bed categories averaged AED 124,000 in October 2016, exhibiting a 1% increase compared with the September 2016 figure. Studio apartments were the most sought after option during the month, posting gains in average rental value when compared with both September and Q3 2016 rates.

Indians also preferred buying apartments as compared to villas in Dubai. Around 46% properties were sold to Indians in which apartments were the top choice.
