Betterhomes' Top Buyer Nationalities in 2025: Egyptians, a Rising Force in Dubai's Real Estate
Dubai's real estate market continues to attract a diverse global audience, with Betterhomes' latest data revealing key shifts in buyer demographics. In 2025, Indian, British, and Italian investors led the way in residential property purchases, followed by buyers from Russia and Pakistan.
Notably, Italian buyer activity surged by 22%, while Egyptian investors saw an extraordinary 150% increase compared to 2024. This sharp rise underscores growing international confidence in Dubai's dynamic real estate sector.
Beyond these top five nationalities, demand remains strong from buyers across Lebanon, Iran, and other key markets, reaffirming Dubai's status as a premier global investment destination.
'This year, we've seen a clear shift in buyer demographics, with a significant rise in Egyptian and Italian investors. Many of our Egyptian clients are seeking stability amid currency fluctuations, while Italians are drawn to Dubai's tax advantages and luxury lifestyle. It's not just about buying property—it's about securing their future in a globally recognised market' said Christopher Cina, Director of Sales at Betterhomes.
In recent years, Dubai has become a top destination for Egyptian investors seeking financial security, high returns, and long-term growth. Several factors are driving this trend: Hedging Against Currency Devaluation – With the Egyptian pound facing depreciation, many investors are turning to Dubai's dollar-pegged real estate market as a safe haven for wealth preservation. High Rental Yields & Capital Growth – Dubai offers some of the highest rental yields in the region, often ranging from 6-8%, along with strong capital appreciation potential in prime locations. Golden Visa & Residency Incentives – Investors purchasing properties worth AED 750,000 ($204,000) or more can qualify for long-term residency, offering greater mobility and business opportunities. Ease of Ownership & Tax Benefits – Unlike some markets, Dubai allows 100% freehold ownership for foreigners and has no property taxes, making it a more investor-friendly environment. Business & Lifestyle Appeal – As a global hub, Dubai attracts Egyptians seeking both investment and lifestyle advantages, from world-class infrastructure to ease of doing business.

Tesla Shares Recover amid Calls to De-escalate Tensions between Trump, Musk
Taarek Refaat Tesla shares recovered from heavy losses amid signs that the rift between CEO Elon Musk and US President Donald Trump is easing, easing investor concerns about the potential political fallout for the electric car maker. Tesla shares rose 5% in early trading. Politico reported that Musk and Trump were expected to speak on Friday, but a White House official told Reuters there were no plans for a call. Musk indicated via his X social media platform that he was open to easing tensions with Trump. The dispute between Trump and Musk wiped more than $150 billion off Tesla's market value on Thursday, the company's largest single-day drop. Tensions escalated after Musk escalated his criticism of a tax and spending bill that proposed partially ending a $7,500 tax incentive for electric vehicle buyers by the end of 2025.
