Am I missing something or is Qatar more expensive than Dubai???

you're missing something.

Qatar is much more cheaper than Dubai.

Dohasteve's apartments are huge and they're on the exclusive Pearl Island.

Want cheap, get something at the Piazza for around 850k

(on a side note, you should compare Doha with Dubai or Qatar with Emirates :P)

Amnesia, thanks for the input.......I was quite surprised at the prices. I have only just started thinking of Qatar today and I started with the impression that it is very much more cheaper than Dubai...so I was right but still 850K sounds a bit on the pricey to what I was expecting

what were you expecting?

The Piazza which is in the new City Lusail is also considered a luxury place. You couldn't get that sort of premium location in most countries for that price.

Here's some info on Lusail Lusail City - North Doha

In the Lagoon Towers (The world's tallest leaning structure) it went from 950,000 for a 3 bedroom 170sqm apartment to 2.2m in the span of a year and a half - two years.

That's because the underground station was announced nearby, it's on the sea with a view of the Pearl, Lusial, the Lagoon, AND Westbay, has a shopping mall, etc...

I recently bought another apartment 2bedroom 145sqm on the 21st floor for 1.65m

Doha is one of the world's best real estate investments on par with Shanghai.
