Landlords who flout 5pc rent cap rule to be fined
ABU DHABI — Landlords who failed to comply with the 5 per cent annual rent cap approved by the Abu Dhabi Executive Council for 2008 will be fined, an official has stressed.
Rashid Mohammed Al Hamili, chairman of the Committee for Settlement of Disputes in Abu Dhabi, said the new tenancy law empowers the committee to slap fines on the landlords if they are found flouting the law.
“We are looking into a series of lawsuits filed by tenants against landlords who didn’t comply with the 5 per cent rent cap,” Al Hamili revealed.
He added that the committee had settled tens of rent disputes swiftly.
