Mohamed Alabbar founded and still chairs Emaar Properties, with Amit Jain as the CEO since 2016. The Dubai government owned Emaar Properties until it went public in 2000.

Downtown Dubai is one of the most popular freehold zones in Dubai amongst tenants and investors. Downtown Dubai not only has world-renowned attractions like the Burj Khalifa and the Dubai Fountain, but also a wide variety of freehold apartments. For example, Emaar properties for sale in Dubai, such as an apartment in Downtown Dubai may cost from AED 900,000, while one in Emaar IL Primo starts at AED 18 million.

Emaar has a long-term strategic partnership with Meraas Holding, which is a investment holding company based in Dubai. Together, they have developed major mixed-use lifestyle destinations in Dubai, such as City Walk and Boxpark.

Emaar Properties has been ranked as the most valuable brand in the Middle East region for six consecutive years by Brand Finance and was also ranked amongst the top 50 real estate brands globally in 2019. The company reported AED 12.6 billion in revenue and AED 4.2 billion in net profit for the first nine months of 2020. Emaar Properties’s market capitalisation was AED 167 billion as of November 2020.

Emaar is one of the most trusted and well-known developers in Dubai, known for its luxury developments and iconic buildings such as the Burj Khalifa. Emaar has a long track record of delivering quality projects on time and on budget, which has resulted in high investor confidence in the developer, with many expanding their assets to Emaar projects for sale.

Emaar is a publicly listed company on the Dubai Financial Market (DFM) and is also one of the few developers in Dubai that offers investors a dividend yield (currently around 2%). This, combined with Emaar’s strong track record and brand name, makes it one of the best developers to invest in for both capital growth and income potential. So, if you’re an investor looking to buy Emaar properties in Dubai, you have come to the right place.
