Executive Summary
UAE Real Estate Market is recovering and gathering pace with a solid outlook for the coming few years. Real estate prices in UAE have remained under pressure in the recent past but the second half of 2021 has seen significant rise in both the number of transactions and prices in the real estate sector. Investor friendly Government policies incorporated to mitigate the impact of the virus -increased mortgage lending limits, UAE golden visa programme and liberalised business environment with allowance of 100% foreign ownership of commercial companies, bode well for the UAE real estate sector. UAE with its relatively high rental yields in excess of 5%, highest population growth in the Gulf region and long-term plans of urban and sustainable development under Dubai Urban Master Plan 2040, is expected to incentivize investors who are looking for steady stream of income.
