Abu Dhabi has ambitious plans to become a truly sustainable world class city, based on infrastructure investment, large scale real estate development, world class cultural facilities and major events, and underpinned by significant population and employment growth.  As part of this plan, the Abu Dhabi government has published a number of strategies to set direction of growth to 2030 covering urban planning, economic development and transportation initiatives.

Abu Dhabi’s property markets are currently characterised by short-term shortages of high quality space across all major sectors.  This is set to change over the next five years as ‘mega projects’ such as Saadiyat Island, Reem Island and Yas Island come on stream, underpinned by a massive step-change in demand.
