“The festival will open up new opportunities for investment through the sale and purchase of property,” said Majida Ali Rashid, Assistant Director-General at Dubai Land Department and Head of the Real Estate Investment Management and Promotion Centre. “It will attract hundreds of real estate professionals and inevitably stimulate the real estate sector.”
According to Dawood Al Shezawi, Head of the Dubai Property Festival Organising Committee, “The banks will be offering exclusive promotions including no registration fees or service charges, and customers can receive pre-approvals during the festival at discounted rates.”
