2.2.4.1 Regulation of the Real Estate Sector

Effective from 16/6/2021

Regulation of the real estate sector as a whole—as opposed to regulation of real estate professionals—is the responsibility of each of the emirates and as a result varies across the UAE. This section discusses key aspects of regulation of the sector in Dubai and Abu Dhabi, the two largest property markets. Section 2.2.4.2 discusses regulation of real estate agents and brokers.
