The Dubai property market experienced a crash following a period of rapid growth and overdevelopment fueled by speculative buying.

Nearly half of all construction projects worth over $500 billion were put on hold or cancelled. While the economy has since stabilized and property prices are recovering slowly, Dubai's overreliance on debt and speculative buying during the boom years left it vulnerable when the bubble burst.
Dubai has transformed from a small trading port to a global economic powerhouse through strategic investments and policies overseen by the Al Maktoum royal family.
