Dubai, United Arab Emirates, Monday, the April 21st, 2025:
The founder & general manager of The Royal Liwan Real Estate company, Mohammad Harib, expected that 2025 will be a landmark in the performance of Dubai’s real estate market, as it is poised to hit the highest rental and investment returns within the last decade, supported by economic & legislative factors that attract local and international investors alike.
Harib stated that the rental returns of residential and commercial properties in Dubai are anticipated to hit 7%-10% annually in some vital neighborhoods, particularly as the demand growth keeps its momentum, while the supply recedes in some real estate categories.
“2024 witnessed high investment returns in some Dubai’s neighborhoods. “Living Legends”, for example, hit 11.16%, while “Jumeirah Circle Village” registered 7.7% for villas of moderate prices”, he noted.
“These trends are expected to continue in 2025, as the returns rise in some prime locations, e.g. “Dubai Investment Park” & “Discovery Gardens”, as the rental incomes there are going to hit 11%, which means that they will be the top globally”, Harib added.
The founder & general manager of The Royal Liwan Real Estate company indicated to the fact that the international research reports state that real estate investment returns in Dubai outperform their peers in the major real estate market all over the world, e.g. New York, London, and Tokyo.
“We see a clear shift in behavior of investors, as they no longer focus upon the rise of prices only, but also the steady & stable rental returns, which became the main driver of purchasing decisions”, he advised.
Harib highlighted the recently reduced interest rates and facilities of real estate financing as two factors that contributed to the growing demand for lucrative properties, a matter which offers unprecedented opportunities to reap steady & sustainable profits, particularly in neighborhoods, such as “Business Bay”, “Dubai Marina”, and “Jumeirah Circle Village”.
He underscored the fact that Dubai’s property sector continues to establish its status as safe investment refuge. “We are currently watching a new growth cycle, which is based on the long-term investment that links the immediate rental returns to the increasing market value”, Harib told.
“Smart investors have begun to direct their capitals to the ready residential developments that are licensed for daily leasing, as they offer flexible returns & speedy capital cycle”, he concluded.
