    Dubai offer at AED 1.303m: how should I limit the valuation gap?

    A practical approach would be to show the tenant the comparison, acknowledge their strong record, and propose a smaller increase with a date for the next discussion. If there are improvements they actually want, price those separately rather than presenting routine maintenance as a favour. Put...
