No rent hike for three years in Dubai, draft law proposes
Emirates:
A new draft rental law has proposed that rents of apartments in Dubai should be
fixed for the first three years of signing the contract.
It is also proposed that the owner or his representatives cannot receive
commission or any other fee from the tenant to cover administrative or any other
cost while signing or renewing the contract, Arabic daily Emarat
Al Youm reported.
The draft, which may be tabled for approval of the supreme legislation committee
in Dubai, says that the owner may now, for any reason, increase rent during the
first three years of the signing of the contract.
