Market Prospective for Luxury Living

2019 has shown us that the industry still has a strong craving for luxury living. The shift in prices along with latest laws that were introduced in the past year made it favourable for investors and tenants to purchase/rent. The new 10-year residency visa in the UAE could give eligible residents a stronger belonging in the Emirate and drive further property investments. The five-year retirement visa for property owners in the Emirate could also see more people viewing the UAE as a long-term option. This is, of course, strong developments and policies that are put in place for the best interest of everyone. As we step into 2020, the upcoming Expo 2020 is also expected to have a positive impact on the Dubai property market. With increasing levels of properties being purchased and favourable policies encouraging investors to think more long term in Dubai, chances are the property market will see further growth.

SLS Dubai Hotel & Residences is set to become a key landmark in Dubai.
