IREIS will spotlightattractive opportunities for long-term investors in other emerging markets that have hugely benefitted from the low interest rates.”

The UAE is home to a diverse mix of nationalitiesthat make up 86 percent of the country’s population.Converging major regional and international exhibitors under one roof, IREIS will leverage expatriate interest also in the property market through showcasing a wide selectionof properties at different price ranges in their home countries.In addition, the event will tap into the strong demand in the local real estate market where the high population growth rates, which stood at an annual rate of 7.5% between 2005 and 2014 according to the statistics from Statistics Center - Abu Dhabi (SCAD), has created an undersupplied residential market in the capital. 

The financial stability of the UAE has witnessed signi¬ficant recovery after the impact of the global economic crisis. Investors in the UAE maintained their leading position in the region in transactions especially in terms of the sale and purchase of properties not only from the region, but across the globe.The UAE government’s cooling measures in the past few years have been effective, leading the IMF, which earlier warned the UAE about its overheating real estate prices in Dubai, to back down from its concerns. According to IMF’s Middle East and Central Asia Department Head Masood Ahmed, price growth has noticeably moderated.

IREIS 2015 is supported by Abu Dhabi National Exhibitions Company (ADNEC), Abu Dhabi Chamber, Abu Dhabi events, alongwithlocal and international government investment houses.

DOME Exhibitions, organizers of IREIS 2015, hosts exhibitions in the emirate of Abu Dhabi to help UAE businesses extend their reach and enhance their visibility on the global marketplace.
