Dubai’s property market has suffered a sharp downturn following the spread of conflict across the Middle East after US and Israeli attacks on Iran. The city’s long-standing image as a safe investment haven has been damaged, leading to a rapid decline in real estate transactions and falling property values.

Citibank analysts warned that the ongoing conflict poses a major risk to Dubai’s future population growth and investor confidence, potentially deepening pressure on the housing market.
