    How does the surge of 108,000 new investors in 2024 impact the current market landscape?

    In 2024, Dubai welcomed over 108,000 new investors, representing a 37.7% increase from the previous year. This brings the total number of unique investors to 158,038, who collectively poured AED 525 billion into the market. As a consultant, I view this influx as a massive demand engine; these new retail and institutional participants are essentially the "fuel" for future exits for early-entry "Opportunity Investors". Notably, 69,791 of these new investors targeted the off-plan market, contributing AED 130.8 billion. This high volume of new international capital is attracted by Dubai's status as a "CEO City"�a hub run with corporate efficiency that adopts technology and residency reforms (like the Golden Visa) faster than traditional bureaucracies. This growing investor base ensures sustained liquidity and reinforces Dubai�s reputation as the world's hottest destination for migrating millionaires.
