dubai firm given the green light to advertise brazil property in uae
News Posted On: 23 August 2011
A Dubai firm has been given the go-ahead by the Real Estate Regulatory Agency, the Dubai real estate watchdog, to advertise its development in Brazil to investors within the emirate.
Estate agency BRIC Group is the first firm to gain approval under laws which regulates firms advertising to investors based in Dubai. Firms wishing to gain permission have to provide proof of ownership, proof of licensing, which is signed by the UAE Embassy in the respective country, and master plan designs in order to gain approval.
Apparently this approval has already boosted interest in the Brazilian development which has units starting from as little as $32,000.
In the past Dubai firms have incurred large fines for advertising foreign developments without first gaining approval. RERA approval doesn't mean that they have endorsed the project but simply that they have confirmed the company is a registered real estate agent who has been approved to advertise the units in Dubai.
These tough regulations are all part of RERA’s plan to clamp down on developers since the property collapse has halved house prices in the emirate.
Back in March it was announced that up to 90,0000 property units were due to be delivered during the next five years, but these plans could be scrapped if projects fail to demonstrate financial viability.
While property analysts welcome the new rules monitoring companies advertising overseas development, they are concerned that it could divert investors’ attention outside Dubai, and they feel that given the current climate RERA should be concentrating on keeping investors focused on Dubai.
