14 - Dubai: A Leading Destination for Real Estate Investors with Eugene Alexeev and George Gabriel

In this episode of Value Investing Talks, we explore why Dubai’s real estate market is increasingly seen as a safe haven for international investors facing trade tensions, market swings, and global uncertainty. Our guest, George, an experienced property advisor in Dubai, explains how factors such as the stability of the dollar peg, tax-free benefits, flexible pre-construction payment options, annual rental yields paid upfront, and projected population growth to 7 million by 2040 have attracted more than \$30 billion in strategic investments during Q1 2025.

Highlights from our conversation include:

• George’s transition from a background in tech and media consulting to advising on Dubai real estate

• Major trends: the impact of U.S. tariffs, geopolitical risks, and capital movement

• Dubai’s unique strengths: a currency pegged to the dollar, business-friendly regulations, a tax-free environment, and property prices 40–60% lower per square foot compared to other global cities

• Types of investors: private business owners, family offices, and institutions seeking 7–9% yields, security, and international mobility

• Pre-construction opportunities: staggered payment structures to help manage cash flow

• Rental approach: annual leases paid in advance, reducing the risk of monthly payment collection

• Golden Visa and tax advantages encouraging long-term, strategic investment rather than speculation

• Q1 2025 investment volume: over \$30 billion

• Population growth: from 3.8 million to 4 million by the end of 2025, with a forecast of 7 million by 2040, driving demand for housing
