Introduction to Dubai and Dubai Property:

Dubai is perhaps the most well known of the seven emirates that make up the United Arab Emirates on the Arabian Peninsula. It is the most populated of the emirates and is the second largest in terms of area. The government of Dubai have diversified away from the being oil reliant and now concentrates its resources towards service and tourism based industries. In fact 40 billion dollars have been invested by the government in Dubai Real Estate. This diversification led to a property boom in Dubai and its associated construction has placed Dubai alongside the fastest growing cities in the world and gained it the nickname of the ‘Mushroom City.’

Dubai is a wealthy and cosmopolitan city that is multicultural, glamorous and blessed with a relaxed and pleasant environment. The city is clean, relatively free from congestion and even though its skyline is well on the way to rivalling that of New York it is virtually free from crime.

Property in Dubai is extravagant, high quality and very often palatial. It is extremely difficult to find a Dubai holiday apartment or indeed any property in Dubai that does not have the wow factor. It is not without reason that many of the hotels and Dubai holiday homes go beyond 5 star ratings and continue to stretch to 7 star luxury.

The boom of property in Dubai is largely driven by its world renowned mega-projects, that often defy belief and convention with their magnitude and complexity. Well known examples include ‘The Palm,’ ‘The World,’ and ‘Dubailand.’

In May of 2002 H.H. General Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai and U.A.E. Defence Minister announced that 100% freehold ownership of certain properties in Dubai was available to all nationalities. So whether you are looking for a rental property, a property for sale in Dubai or a particular type of Dubai property investment, with prices set to increase by 15-20% per annum, and the population set to increase from 1.3 million to 3 million by 2010 then this is an ideal time to explore the opportunities that Dubai real estate can offer to you.
