Grocery shopping in Dubai has become a breeze as Dubai Metro commuters can now shop through the Roads and Transport Authority’s (RTA) Smart Mall and have the goods delivered home free of cost.

or those who live or travel through Dubai, the Metro Green Line, which makes its grand opening today and its public debut tomorrow, will make the city a little smaller. Rasika Gamage and Savinda Liyanage, salesmen from India, will seek clients in areas previously too costly to visit by taxi, but now easily accessible by the Green Line.

In a new research note the company gives the example of a two-bedroom apartment within walking distance of the Mall of the Emirates metro station. According to Asteco, such properties will typically lease for between Dhs60,000 and Dhs65,000 per annum whereas similar dwellings just a couple of kilometres away go for Dhs50,000 to Dhs55,000.

Location, or specifically close proximity to a Dubai Metro station is now becoming a priority for many tenants, who are prepared to pay up to 20% extra for the privilege, says Asteco, the largest property services company in the United Arab Emirates.
