He stressed that the current price disparity is a manifestation of a healthy balance in the market, as the slowdown in sharp heights and the emergence of limited increases in exchange for slight declines reflects the market response to realistic determinants such as the site, quality, and the ability to pay, in parallel with the improvement of organizational transparency, and not due to severe imbalances between supply and demand.
