Foreign Investment and Policy Reforms Drive Market Growth
Dubai’s continued real estate boom is fueled by its transparent regulations, investor-centric policies, and tax-free incentives. These factors are drawing attention from global investors, including an increasing number of buyers from Pakistan, looking to capitalize on Dubai’s property stability and growth.
With the final quarter of 2025 underway, analysts predict sustained momentum, driven by new project launches, visa reforms, and rising international demand. Dubai’s property sector appears poised to end the year on a strong note, further cementing its place as a global real estate investment hub.
