Why Invest in Dubai Real Estate

It’s no secret that real estate investing has played a huge part in the success story of most billionaires around the world today. It’s a proven and tested way for all kinds of investors to get ahead and reach their financial and investment goals. So with that said let’s have a look at some of the top reasons why you should invest in real estate.

Real Estate is accessible to most and relatively easy to get into

Unlike investing in say the stock market or bonds, investing in property is rather simple. Of course, it requires a degree of due diligence and usually the help of an experienced broker but these are minor in comparison.

It’s easy to finance

Whilst It may not always feel like it when you’re going through the application process, property finance is in fact relatively easy to obtain. Home financing makes up a major part of any bank’s business model and as a result, they are more likely to lend on residential property than any other asset class.. This makes investing in property far more accessible than most other asset classes.

Investment With Flexibility

Property is a rather flexible investment. Regardless of your financial goals, there is an investment strategy that will suit you. Common strategies include; capital growth, buy-to-let, renovations, sub-divisions, and even development.

Dubai Real Estate is Cheap

Compared to other global cities of its size and standing Dubai properties represent excellent value. Now of course there are certain communities and developments that are designed for the rich and famous and the furthest from cheap. However, when comparing apples with apples Dubai property certainly holds its own and is often considerably cheaper than what you get in say New York or London.

It’s a Usable Investment

Property is a tangible investment that provides shelter; a basic necessity for most people. This essentially means that should events take a turn for the worse you have a property you can move into and use as your home or alternatively lease out whilst you wait for capital appreciation. This is a luxury you simply do not get with an investment like stocks for example and is rather unique to those that invest in real estate.

Stability

Whilst not always true, generally speaking, the property market is far less volatile than investments like the share market. What this means is that property is much less prone to short-term speculators and unlikely to experience drastic falls overnight. This is largely due to the fact that it’s a usable investment and one that cannot be liquidated at the click of a button.

In Summary

Listed here are just a few of the many reasons why every investor should have at least a part of their investment portfolio in real estate. Whilst there is no denying the effectiveness of investing in real estate it’s still important to only do so with the appropriate strategy, knowledge, and due diligence.
