The United Arab Emirates was formed on the 2nd December 1971, just 46 years ago, and it is one of the most notable days in the calendar where the entire country comes together to celebrate and honour the historical moment when the seven emirates combined to form one nation. 

I arrived here in 2003 shortly after the government announced that overseas buyers were able to invest in Dubai’s freehold property and it still amazes me that every apartment, house and community that you can buy into today did not exist 14 years ago.  

This week has been a little quieter due to the long weekend holiday so we are short on news although my December newsletter will be with you in the next few days, assuming you are a subscriber.

These are a few of the properties that we have been discussing with clients

• I have been creating a simple analysis for a couple of investors looking to buy some entry level off-plan studios and one beds that will provide a high rental yield and hopefully some good growth over the medium to long-term – let me know if you are interested in receiving a copy

• 5% discount is offered on the latest townhouses to be launched shortly in Akoya Oxygen; prices start at AED 999,999 for a three bedroom two story house with a net internal living area of 1,086 sq. ft plus balconies, terraces and carport measuring 617 sq. ft. Providing a total built-up area of 1,732 sq. ft. The deal is valid until the 9th December.

• Still no definite news on when the next Belgravia in JVC will be released - One beds from under AED 800k and two beds at circa AED 1m – if you want me to message you when I have more information then please click here
