About Abu Dhabi

Abu Dhabi is the capital city of the United Arab Emirates and is currently undergoing a period of sustained and tremendous growth.

Situated on the coastline of The Arabian Peninsula, Abu Dhabi now sits alongside Shanghai, Mumbai and Dubai as one of the new world power economic centres.

The UAE Capital city is on the cusp of change and has set into motion a wave of investments and developments which will help to redefine its image and broaden its appeal as a destination of choice for residents, tourists and businesses alike.

A shortage of quality real estate across all asset classes, combined with the continued increase in demand due to regional growth through inward immigration, underpin the supply and demand dynamics of the emirate’s real estate market.

Through strong government presence and backing and limitations on the amount of real estate that can be built upon in any, given year, the risk of an over-supply of property is mitigated.

With the establishment of Plan 2030, Abu Dhabi has adopted an approach that consists of well structured urban planning and strong co-ordination between the government, real-estate sector entities and other federal bodies, all of which we believe will help to curtail speculative building activity and allow for a smooth delivery
process.

Further economic liberalization and the creation of investment hubs, such as the recently announced US$1billion aerospace development zone, will help to nurture the commercial real estate sector and continue to encourage new businesses to establish a presence in the region.
