Leading real estate players in the Middle East are bullish about Indians continuing as the most prolific foreign investors in the sector in the coming months too, as Indians have adopted `Dubai as their second home’ and expect high return on their investments.

Commenting on the hassle-free purchase procedures offered by the Dubai realty market, Mr. Kalpesh Sampat, Director of SPF Realty said, “the key advantages offered by the Dubai property markets vis-à-vis investment in Indian properties lies in the fact that they do not have to deal with complicated sections and provisions related to the Income tax as there are no personal and income taxes in Dubai. Quick transaction procedures ensure that Indian investors get their money as a seller in 10 days (cash) or 45 days in case of a mortgage.”
Leading real estate player in the Middle East, SPF Realty is one of those who are taking part in the ongoing “Dubai Property Show”, at the Bombay Exhibition Centre, with a view to woo more Indian investors to the region.
According to the official statistics, Indians have emerged the top foreign property investors in Dubai, investing over Rs 30,000 crore last year alone. This is more than a quarter of the total of around Rs 1 lakh crore of 'non-Arab' property investments recorded in 2014, according to the Dubai land department.
Real estate investors from India have shown a marked preference for properties in Dubai owing to the close proximity of the UAE to India. Indians were the most prolific overseas investors in Dubai’s realty market in H1, 2015, clocking 3,017 transactions valued at more than $ 2 billion.
Elucidating on the emergence of Dubai as a prime investment destination for Indian investors, Mr Ranjeet Chavan, Director of SPF Realty reiterated, “Indians accord a second-home status to Dubai and they are coming there in huge numbers to live, work and invest with a long-term perspective. Lower interest rates, lucrative yearly rental yield in the range of 4-7 per cent, security, tax-free returns on investments or around 20 per cent, a regulated market structure and attractive payment options are additional triggers for driving Indian investments in huge numbers in the Indian market.”
