A report by Al-Asmakh Real Estate Projects stated that the real estate sector is experiencing a notable lull during the holy month of Ramadan. Investors and property management companies are taking this opportunity to reorganize and catch their breath following recent market fluctuations.
The report explained that an increase in supply in some areas has led to corrective adjustments in rental values, although prices remain stable in many regions, supported by offers from property owners and asset management companies. It added that most activities during the holy month will focus on wrapping up previous projects, reviewing and finalizing earlier transactions, as well as seizing attractive investment opportunities—whether for purchase or rental investment.
The report further noted that many investors view the current period as an ideal time to select suitable real estate investment opportunities. A more active market in sales and purchases is expected during the second half of the year, particularly in areas offering usufruct rights or freehold ownership for non-Qataris. Moreover, any increase in the real estate sales index is seen as a significant catalyst for anticipated market activity, especially given Qatar's robust and resilient economy and the safe investment profile of the real estate sector.
Finally, the report highlighted that real estate transaction values performed well compared to the previous week, with the Real Estate Registration Department at the Ministry of Justice recording 108 transactions during the week from February 23 to 27.
