Dubai Property Group History The Dubai Property Group success story began in 2002 when it commenced operations as Radin Realty, with the vision of establishing a world class real estate and asset management organization that would play a key role in Dubai’s burgeoning real estate industry. It was founded with a single project, the Jumaraiha Beach Residence (JBR), acclaimed as the world’s largest single-phase residential project. Radin Realty evolved in 2005 to become a subsidiary of Dubai Property Group (DPG), a global investment holding company with interests in 24 countries, following its establishment in 2004 to manage a portfolio of projects supporting Dubai’s economic, social and industrial development. With over a decade of industry experience, today Dubai Properties is a developer and investor that has carefully crafted long-term strategic goals uniquely placed to create destinations that reinforce Dubai’s position as the location of choice in the region for residents, international businesses and tourism. Today, the Dubai Property Group is a leading master-developer and is responsible for shaping some of Dubai’s most renowned and iconic real estate destinations. As a dynamic and forward-thinking organization, Dubai Properties is committed to creating and managing renowned developments and new residential projects world-wide that provide distinctive and enriching and sustainable lifestyles for residents. With over 15 years of experience in the residential real estate sector, the Dubai Property Group has an in-depth understanding of the core needs of resident home owners and international investors, thus providing innovative real estate and lifestyle solutions. Dubai Property Group’s versatile portfolio of projects spans the world from Jumaraiha Beach Residence (JBR) and Business Bay to DUBAILAND, Al Jadaf Waterfront and beyond. Why Investing with US is A Great Opportunity For the past decade, house prices have steadily increased in the vast majority of the 30 countries that make up the IMF’s House Price Index for Emerging Markets. The index an increase for nine consecutive quarters since 2012. This run- up—four times as fast as that in advanced economies—would be even more pronounced if the larger countries in the group such as China and India receive greater weight in the index. As a seasoned navigator and investor, within the global housing market, the Dubai Property Group has capitalized time and time again on the global housing market trends and we expect to show above average returns for the foreseeable future for all our stakeholders. Income generated from increases in property values, rental income collected by leasing out properties to tenants and profits generated from business activities that depend upon our real estate have set the benchmark across our native market and have garnered admiration from the international business and investment communities alike. Since 2014, whilst 20 main U.S. cities experienced spectacular house price rises during the boom, our real estate projects in Los Angeles accrued returns of over 265%, followed by those in San Diego (over 247%), San Francisco (over 226%), and Miami (over 213%). For 2020 and beyond, we are looking to capitalize on the upward global housing prices trend that have been forecasted by the IMF and expect above average returns for our current real estate projects. Opportunities Real estate investment opportunities are selected through a stringent set of criteria, based on our experience: Geographic locations Advantageous residential neighborhoods for middle and upper- income class. Safe purchase Acquisitions are made exclusively through the Dubai Property Group or its local affiliates. Competitive price Significantly lower than the average market price for same kind of property or project. Immediate Cash Flow Rental agreements already in place and consolidated over the years.
