Sharp drop in property market

Dubai
From reports made available to our sources from the Land department in Dubai, property deals declined by a whopping 51.8%.
Craig Plumb, head of research at JLL-Jones Lang LaSalle’s office in Dubai, said “These figures come as no surprise although from the face of it they look quite dramatic.”
He also added that 'A fall in volumes is a good leading indicator that prices will fall and we expect that to continue for the rest of this year. Last April the market was still booming, so any year-on-year figures will reflect that fact.'
