Arabian Business, 13 February 2024: Sharjah’s Crown Prince and Deputy Ruler have announced new property laws have been proposed.

The new laws have been proposed as a property boom is being seen in the Emirate.

The laws were formally presented to the Executive Council today.

The Council has approved the proposed laws which relate to the leasing of real estate and the establishment of a Rental Disputes Centre in the Emirate.

The draft laws will now be sent to the Consultative Council to consider.
