After a year full of challenges as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, the real estate market in the United Arab Emirates, especially Dubai, is witnessing a remarkable activity that gives hope that the real estate market has regained its activity and vitality. This is due to many creative initiatives taken by the Government of Dubai; for example, facilitating the acquisition of the golden residency visa for investors and talented people has encouraged many of them to buy real estate in Dubai. We are a few months away from the Expo and this event has great positive influence on the real estate market and we are expecting more real estate transactions as a result of having Expo in Dubai.

In this edition, the real estate team of Al Tamimi & Company has written a number of important articles related to real estate activities including those related to incomplete and stalled real estate projects, and the new judicial committee that formed to liquidate or assign such projects to other developers.
