Market Trends this week: 

New Visa Requirements for Purchasing Off-plan Properties in Dubai:
If the buyer owns a property valued $545,000 or more, but the construction progress is lower than 50% ➤ the buyer is not yet eligible to obtain the UAE Golden Visa.

Now, instead of the Golden Visa, you can apply for the Investor Visa for 2 years, regardless the construction progress. (Condition: at least $102,000 must be paid).

Dubai property buyers are shifting their hunt to outskirt areas:
New property units in Dubai are approximately 12.5 per cent smaller than older ones, despite prices going up substantially higher in the post-pandemic period. This has prompted many property buyers and investors to move to affordable and outskirts areas to lay hand on larger properties at lower rates, analysts said.

Luxury Office Spaces in high demand with the continuous rise of Dubai residents:
Rising demand for flexible office spaces, including serviced and co-working spaces, reflects changing work models.

Dubai’s office market is on an upward trajectory, buoyed by a resilient regional economic rebound and strong demand from overseas investors and businesses

As Dubai's real estate sector continues to grow and flourish, the latest off-plan launches and market trends highlight the city's enduring appeal as a premier destination for luxury living and investment opportunities.
