Are Dubai property prices beginning to soften?

from The Agenda · host Dubai Eye 103.8

With the ongoing situation in the region, we look first at the status of the housing market in Dubai with Louis Harding from Betterhomes. We also discuss what’s happening behind the scenes, with some mortgage applications now on hold, while others move quickly to secure deals. Jo Phillips from Phillips & Walls Mortgage Brokers joins us on that. A fragile ceasefire may be holding but overnight, tensions have escalated again, with US President Donald Trump announcing a military blockade from 2pm GMT — that’s 6pm here in the UAE. We hear from the International Chamber of Shipping on what that means for global trade and stranded seafarers. We also ask: what's happening beneath the surface, how is marine life impacted by the situation at the Strait of Hormuz? And we get more details about the newly-approved oral weight-loss medication in the UAE.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
