Along with the growth in the Real Estate market, Dubai has experienced
simultaneous growth in its home finance sector in the past three years.

at Dh 11.5 billion. It is estimated by the Egyptian investment bank that the
UAE housing finance sector will grow by Dh 14bn in 2007, Dh 18bn in the year
2008, the growth is estimated to be Dh18bn in 2009 as well and Dh 14bn and Dh
17bn in the years 2010 and 2011 respectively. These figures have been derived
based on an expected population compound annual growth rate of about three
percent.
The most dominant forces in the Emirates’ home finance market are Amlak and
Tamweel. They account for over 35 and 25 percentage of the industry
respectively.
The Real Estate boom of the emirate has left the world spell bound,

figure of Dh419bn in the years between 2008 and 2011. It has also been said

finance apartments which are bought in tower ‘H’. Tower ‘H’ is a primary tower

with no obligations of interest repayment. In this case the loan is made
available for 85 percent of the property price of a sum of 4 million AED,
