Why Are Dubai Commercial Property Sales Soaring?
1. Economic Diversification and Business Growth
Dubai’s proactive initiatives to diversify its economy—especially in logistics, AI, fintech, and tourism—have led to a rising influx of new companies and startups. As a result, demand for office and co-working space has intensified, especially in areas like Business Bay, Downtown Dubai, and DIFC.
2. Favorable Tax and Ownership Reforms
With 100% foreign business ownership now permitted in many sectors and no corporate tax on free zone companies, Dubai has become one of the world’s most appealing places to set up shop. Commercial property purchases offer not only space but also a stake in one of the globe’s most entrepreneur-friendly cities.
