Market Trends of Dubai This Past Week:
UAE and DLD Imposes Stricter Telemarketing Regulations:
The UAE government has introduced new, stricter regulations on telemarketing calls, with violations subject to severe penalties. Starting mid-August 2024, companies that fail to comply will face administrative penalties, ranging from warnings to fines up to Dh150,000. More severe repercussions include partial or complete suspension of activities, license cancellation, removal from the commercial registry, and disconnection from telecommunications services for up to one year.
Seabeats Introduces Comprehensive Home Insurance Plan:
Seabeats Real Estate is set to launch an innovative home insurance plan in Dubai, covering all aspects of homeownership. This comprehensive policy will protect both the structure and contents of the house, offering coverage against natural disasters like floods and earthquakes, as well as accidents such as fires. As the first initiative of its kind in the UAE, it aims to provide homeowners with extensive protection and peace of mind.
Dubai Real Estate: Office Market Shows Resilience with Rising Demand:
Dubai’s commercial property sector demonstrated stability in Q2 2024, with office transactions increasing by 1% year-on-year to 764 deals worth AED 1.36 billion. According to CRC Commercial Real Estate, the office market’s resilience is underscored by the emerging trend of pre-leasing, where tenants secure offices before they become available due to limited supply of top-grade spaces.
Business Bay led with 43% of deals, followed by Jumeirah Lakes Towers at 32%, and Dubai Silicon Oasis at 5%. The demand for Grade A buildings with sustainability credentials is strong, pushing the average secondary office price to a record AED 1,364 per square foot, a 22% increase year-on-year. Despite new developments, the persistent undersupply continues to drive competition and maintain high occupancy rates.
As Dubai’s population continues to grow, the real estate market is expected to evolve, providing more opportunities for investors, buyers, and developers. Stay tuned for more updates as we track these dynamic developments shaping Dubai’s property landscape.
