dubizzle Property Comment following the Dubai government’s announcement around REST (Real Estate Self Transaction), on Tuesday, May 29th

 “The recent announcement of REST by the Dubai Land Department will have far-reaching impacts on the property market in the UAE and is a testament to the Dubai government’s commitment to driving the digital economy and boosting the UAE’s regional and global competitive edge. We see the introduction of paperless technology as a facilitator rather than a disruptor in the real estate industry.

REST will make transactions faster and more efficient, especially for overseas buyers, we believe real estate agents will continue to have a critical role to play by shifting their focus towards delivering a high-quality experience, using this new technology to create seamless transactions for both vendors and buyers.” - Samer Abdin, General Manager of dubizzle Property
