Mazaya Monthly Real Estate Report
Smart investors look for middle class real estate
opportunities in Dubai and the GCC
Gulf real estate is attractive to investors
from all over the world for many reasons,
but one of its chief draws is its long-term,
consistent value growth and its ability
to generate reliable returns. While, like
all almost asset classes, real estate is
affected to an extent by the fluctuations of
local, regional and global economies, the
fundamentalsthatunderpinGulfrealestate
are solid. Gulf populations are growing
rapidly and need houses, and liquidity
levels in the region, after a decade-long
oil boom, are high relative to other parts
of the world, even with a lower oil price.
For these reasons, it is wrong to
base investment decisions on Gulf
real estate on today’s prices. Instead,
investors must consider the value
Gulf real estate will hold in the future,
and the ongoing stability of the region
as a place in which to place money.
