Investors have been acquiring assets in this exciting waterway-centric part of the emirate since the onset of the Gold Rush – when international purchases were sanctioned – almost over two decades ago.

Ever since the introduction of that foreign ownership decree, Dubai Marina investors have enjoyed some of the world’s biggest annual capital appreciation returns.

It’s true that like Dubai in general, and every other property market in the world, the past 20 years haven’t been without some downturns and cyclical performance, but on the whole investment in Dubai Marina has offered strong ROI.

And it looks like property investment in the marina has a bright future too.
