WHY AUSTRALIAN PROPERTY INVESTORS ARE CONSIDERING DUBAI
AS Australia’s property market continues to tighten under rising interest rates and regulatory constraints, a growing number of investors are looking offshore for yield, tax efficiency, and portfolio diversification. On Thursday, November 20 2025, Sydney will host an exclusive event - Invest Smart: Unlock Your Gateway to Dubai Property with Confidence, at Proxima 2, Sydney Olympic Park, from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM (AEDT). Presented by Property Finder Real Estate Group in collaboration with DAMAC Properties, one of Dubai’s prominent luxury developers, the event will unpack a new frontier of international investment and how Australians can tap into Dubai’s booming property sector safely, strategically, and with expert guidance.
Dubai has emerged as one of the most lucrative property markets globally, offering rental yields of 5–9%, no income or capital gains tax, and a streamlined ownership process for international buyers. With demand for both residential and short-stay accommodation surging, the city presents a compelling case for Australian investors seeking long-term value and global exposure.
What attendees can expect:
- Market insights: Hear directly from DAMAC’s investment leaders on the current Dubai real-estate climate.
- Exclusive opportunities: Preview select off-plan and completed projects available only to Australian attendees.
- Financial and legal clarity: Learn the full purchasing process for international buyers, including ownership structures and finance options.
