Excessive Maintenance Fees
Well, I guess as an owner of property in Dubai during the property boom, we all face ridiculous maintenance fees. When I was booking the apartment, I was informed that the rate would be around Dhs. 5-6 per sq.ft. However the current rate is around Dhs. 10.55. And while The Greens was launched with a maintenance of around Dhs. 6, it seems unjust that we should have to pay so much. However, it would seem justified because of the landscaping around the buildings. As yet, there is no landscaping done but I'm pretty sure that it will be taken care of pretty soon. As you did mention, the caretaker just lolls around for most of the day cleaning for maybe an hour or two. Yes, and if Nakheel takes up to Dhs. 8000 for a one bedroom unit and around Dhs. 4500 for a studio, they are really making a lot of money considering that each building has around 80 units! Do the math!
