Recent figures show that housing and rental prices in the capital, Abu Dhabi, has overtaken those in Dubai, for the first time. The HSBC report showed that the average rent per square metre in Abu Dhabi was $272 per square metre in quarter four of this year compared to $430 per square metre in quarter last year.
If we compare this to Dubai’s figures of $343 in Quarter four and $420 per square metre in quarter two, the difference is notable. This highlights a substantial shift towards the capital and highlights the importance of the recently opened Better Homes office in Abu Dhabi.
