Here are some of the pros of buying a property in Dubai:

1. City in progress: The Burj Khalifa, the Dubai Mall, the Dubai Fountain, Dubai International Airport, and the Palm Jumeirah island are all part of Dubai's ongoing growth. Dubai will always be known for its revolutionary and inventive projects.

2. Population: In 1968, Dubai had a population of only 59.000 people. By 2020, the population of the city will have climbed to 2.9 million. With an average annual growth rate of 10.7%, Dubai is one of the world's fastest-growing cities. This means that new real estate is continuously in demand.

3. High rental yields: Dubai properties have an average rental yield of 7%. When you compare that to New York (2.9%), London (2.7%), Singapore (2.5%), and Hong Kong (2.4%), it's easy to see why people flock to Dubai.

4. Property Tax Exemption: One of the primary benefits of purchasing a property in the UAE is the lack of property tax.

Dubai is one of the safest tourist destinations in the Middle East. Because of its tougher restrictions, crime is kept to a minimum, and many tourists feel much safer in Dubai than they do elsewhere. Dubai has a substantially lower crime rate than comparable countries in other parts of the world. The city's public transportation system is clean, safe, and well-maintained, and using it is not dangerous.

When it comes to living expenses, housing takes up a significant portion of the budget. Housing will account for over 30% of living expenses, followed by transportation and food, which will account for 15% each.

Buying a home can be more financially feasible than renting if you can afford the first down payment.
