Hussain Sajwani, Chairman of Damac Properties, envisions a prosperous future for the Dubai property market, pinpointing Chinese investors as the catalyst for significant growth. Sajwani highlights the market’s positive trajectory, particularly in the high-demand luxury segment, where limited land supply poses a notable challenge.
Global Appeal and Influx of Talent
Sajwani emphasizes Dubai’s current advantages, including regional and global safety, security, and favorable tax conditions, leading to an influx of top talent and businessmen from Europe, the US, and beyond in the post-COVID-19 era.
Delayed Chinese Involvement
While the market has experienced substantial growth from European and Russian clients, the impact of Chinese investors has been restrained due to COVID-19 lockdowns. Sajwani anticipates a robust wave of Chinese investors in the coming years, marking a shift in focus for brokers.
Dubai’s Property Market Dynamics
Dubai’s property market has witnessed unprecedented growth since 2021, with record-breaking transactions and prices driven by an influx of high-net-worth individuals, professionals, and businessmen globally.
Shifting Investor Focus
Despite challenges posed by pandemic-related travel restrictions, Dubai continues to attract investors and buyers from Western Europe, the Middle East, and the Indian Subcontinent. Sajwani notes that geopolitical conflicts and restrictions in other regions have redirected Chinese investors’ attention to Dubai.
Changing Dynamics of Relocation
Sajwani shares insights from discussions with a US businessman, highlighting the shifting dynamics of relocation to Dubai. Previously, moving individuals from North America was challenging, with demands for doubled salaries. However, the current scenario reflects a willingness to relocate at the same salary, contributing to Dubai’s appeal as a global business and investment hub.
