Wednesday, 25 September 2019 10:55

Officials say they're cracking down on pushy property agents and brokers because they want to improve the image of Dubai's real estate market.

On Tuesday, the Real Estate Regulatory Agency (RERA) issued a circular warning them not to harass investors at Cityscape.

Hend Al Marri, CEO of Dubai Real Estate Institute, tells Dubai Eye 103.8's Business Breakfast about the kinds of complaints they've been receiving.

The message warned them not to "chase investors in corridors and parking lots" at the property exhibition.
