● Critical Drivers Of Dubai’s Real Estate Market
Dubai’s investor-friendly regulations have kept it at the top of the list for international investors. Changes to immigration procedures and relaxed regulations have also contributed to Dubai’s real estate market’s meteoric rise. Many elements contribute to the soaring success of Dubai’s property market, but the government’s efforts are the key driver. Future regulations that are more accommodating to ex-pats and investors will encourage more people to buy property in Dubai.
