Your playlist spans from New York Rap to Dubai deep house. Your investments should also cross borders seamlessly.
Property ownership should be borderless and easy. Diversifying across assets and markets is a way to strengthen returns, reduce risk, and build wealth with confidence.
Property Investment? Think Global
The old mantra was “buy what you can see.” But today, property markets are interconnected and regulated. London and New York no longer move in isolation. The real estate market in Dubai and property funds in Saudi Arabia are consistently seeing strong returns.
In 2024, cross-border real estate investment hit $171 billion, and close to half came from private investors. Thanks to digital platforms, property ownership is no longer reserved for an exclusive club.
Why A Global Strategy Works
Different cities, different growth
Dubai’s residential market surged 16.5% in 2024. London barely moved. Saudi delivered rental yields as high as 8.89%. Diversification into these markets lets you benefit from growth, while other geographies stall.
Safeguard against currency swings
Multiple property currencies help reduce exposure to British pound sterling (GBP) or euro (EUR) fluctuations, keeping your wealth productive when your home market stalls.
Protection against cycles
Dubai doesn’t follow London real estate. KSA isn’t connected to New York’s property market. That’s the power of globally balanced ownership: local slowdowns don’t impact your whole portfolio.
Why the Middle East Stands Out
Dubai
Zero property tax. Rental yields in the 6–8% range. AED 52 billion in foreign investment in 2024 alone. This city is still attracting residents and investment.
Saudi Arabia
Vision 2030 is driving 1.5 million new homes. Combine already robust yields with long-term capital growth, and you've got serious potential upside.
Beyond Returns: Control and Optionality
Owning internationally is also about flexibility.
- Business trip in Dubai? You already have exposure.
- UK slowdown? Your GCC holdings act as a shield.
- Policy changes at home? Global diversification cushions the impact.
This is about diversifying assets across different markets, to spread risk and keep your investments robust.
