's Studies Unit presented some signs of maturity in dealing with the Dubai real estate market, in particular, and with the other emirates, in general. This comes as developers have revised their plans in accordance with the current changes and developments in the regional property market, seeking to benefit from the potential of the coming years to generate gradual growth in investments, trading and prices.
According to the report, despite the expectations of growth in the construction and real estate sectors, growth should be driven by general economic growth. The UAE Contractors' Association expects a four per cent growth rate by 2011 in keeping with the general economic growth as the signs of recovery in the UAE have been evident since the beginning of this year. The supply of more property units in the UAE market, specifically in the Dubai market, is expected to add new high quality units to the property market, which is set to help reduce rental rates during the second half of 2010, according to a Jones Lang Lassalle report, which also expects Dubai's real estate market to deliver a total of 26,000 residential units in 2010 and 25,000 in 2011, bringing the total residential stock to 320,000 units by the end of 2011.

Dubai managed to uphold this reputation during the global financial crisis with the completion of a number of mega infrastructure, telecommunication and transport projects, the inauguration of Burj Khalifa, as well as by achieving growth in a number of important sectors.""Al Mazaya has set a comprehensive restructuring plan to address the current situation via various tools such as focusing on specific real estate sectors, completing specified projects, generating operational revenues, redirecting some investments, and reviewing the volume and type of projects inside Dubai's market and abroad," he added.
