Residency Law in UAE since 2017
To be accurate we will back our statements with the facts published widely online. The UAE government in 2017 decided to introduce a new law. This law gave residency as a gift to those who are buying property worth 1 million AED.

EXPO 2020
EXPO 2020 is again what caught the eyes of the world. And the limelight worked wonders in favour of Dubai. EXPO 2020 was originally supposed to be in 2020 but because of the Covid outbreak, it got postponed till 1 October 2021.
It is still going on till 31 March 2022. It almost is a fair like a place where art, culture, technology are the things that are on display. The EXPO 2020 is not just for trading or interaction purposes. It is also about putting the hospitality and property market on spectacle. The current Dubai has the best for all. Starting from luxury to residential cells it has everything in between too.
We return to things that are profitable for us, then why not apply that in investment too? The Indian investors are foreseeing the profit they can have from the Dubai property market.
It is their instinct that is making them return investors. It is fair enough for both to enjoy the fruit of that lucky shining star. Indians are investing in the safety and hospitality that Dubai has to offer.
