These included the price corrections witnessed in the UAE market, particularly Dubai which has been significantly impacted by an oversupply of residential units of different types. This was coupled with heated competition between real estate developers which has ultimately resulted in a price fall, lower sales and slower collection of payments.”

He added, “global economic and geopolitical developments have had their bearing on the Turkish real estate market which experienced a significant decline in economic activity in general and across the property sector in particular. A number of other markets in the region also suffered negative developments and reduced sale prices due to various economic factors.
