Dubai real estate is fast-moving, and staying ahead means relying on more than just portals and CRMs. For market data, I keep an eye on REIDIN and Property Monitor for transaction insights, as well as AirDNA and Mashvisor when it comes to yield analysis in holiday homes. Reports from CBRE, JLL and Knight Frank add the bigger investment picture that serious buyers expect. On the networking side, LinkedIn Sales Navigator remains one of the most effective tools for identifying the right decision makers, and I also use platforms like ZoomInfo and Apollo when I need deeper contact research. The legal side is just as critical. The DLD Rest app and official website are essential for ownership checks and transactions, while MOJ and Notary portals streamline POA and title deed processes. I also make sure to follow legal updates from firms like Al Tamimi or Hadef & Partners—because one overlooked clause can make or break a deal. The truth is, Dubai’s real estate market has matured. It’s not just about listings and square footage anymore. It’s about data, compliance, and risk management. The better your ecosystem of resources, the more confidently you can advise clients and close deals that stand the test of time.

Luxury towers dominate the headlines, but in the UAE property market, another story is quietly unfolding. Staff accommodation - long dismissed as a cost of doing business - is emerging as one of the most overlooked opportunities in real estate investment today. When treated with the same discipline as prime assets, staff housing can deliver stable yields, reputational strength and measurable impact. The key? Embedding governance, quality benchmarks and a credible ESG strategy from the outset. For institutional investors, this shift unlocks more than returns. It transforms workforce housing into a scalable, transparent and investable asset class aligned with national priorities. The question is no longer whether this evolution is possible but who will lead it. 👉 In my latest article, I explore how the UAE can institutionalize staff accommodation and co-living without reputational risk and why the time to act is now.

Moderate Price Correction Expected in 2026 Home prices in the UAE could begin easing in 2026 as tens of thousands of new apartments and villas hit the market, according to a new report from Moody's Ratings. For residents, that could mean more choice, steadier rents, and a less overheated housing market. On The Business Breakfast, we spoke to the Moody’s Assistant Vice President and analyst Aziz Al Sammarai, MFin, who wrote the report about what to expect and how “moderate” this correction might be.
