Additionally, the agreement also entails providing guidance, professional training, and support for national talents, attracting them to the private sector and enhancing their specialised skills to establish their businesses in the real estate market.
Dubai's real estate sector has seen massive growth in the post-pandemic period, resulting in a large number of jobs being created in the brokerage segment. Thousands of brokerage houses were established after Covid-19 as the property market witnessed unprecedented demand from local and foreign investors.
Expanding network
DLD aims to expand this network of 9 companies by signing agreements with more developers in the coming months.
Marwan bin Ghalita, acting director-general of Dubai Land Department, said this programme has been launched to“increase citizen participation in the real estate market” and to incentivise their involvement in real estate activities, thereby enhancing their engagement in one of Dubai's pivotal economic sectors.
“We eagerly anticipate collaborating with our partners in the real estate sector to achieve remarkable outcomes that resonate with the esteemed position held by the real estate sector in Dubai, both domestically and internationally,” said bin Ghalita.
