    Sell Dubai - buy Abu Dhabi

    I believe it's a very small minority who would move their investment $$s from Dubai to AD, reason being, it's still the UAE. (I mean small investors, businesses may have better reason) I know very liitle about AD, compared to Dubai, but I know I can't even be bothered to research it, because...

    Sell Dubai - buy Abu Dhabi

    Hi Dobuy, I have enjoyed your posts recently, because you seem to have taken a much more balanced view. One point though, from your previous post I believe that thousands of expat investors, who are stuck with large amounts of their savings floating around there, with nothing to show...

    Well you can't blame the company for putting out feely-good promo's, The investors may as well enjoy them, dance along with them, as the funding will be coming straight out of their 'secure' escrow accounts.

    Chapal The Destiny Sports City

    whatever the plan, it's too late, because as you say, the government have made it painfully obvious to foreigners that they DONT WANT them, long term. They want their money, and they have tricked plenty out of us so far, and even seem arrogant enough to believe foreigners are slow learners...

    Cheapest method to send 30k USD to Dubai ?

    You can use a foreign exchange company, who exist purely for this reason. You tell them how much you want, in which currency, they will offer you a rate of exchange, and if you agree by phone they will give you a couple of weeks where that stated rate stands. You then give the details of...

    Dubai Property Market To Crash in 2010

    "Unfortunately, that may be difficult as the bailout is engineered to benefit the locals and not the foreigners" As is every single other aspect of life, in the long run. This whole dream and vision was engineered with one thing in mind, to further the prosperity of Dubai and it's people...

    Dubai Property Market To Crash in 2010

    Trouble is, crazy as it seems economically, Dubai does not seem to want 'foreigners' on a permanent basis. They have shown very little respect for the rights of foreigners in their country, including the labour market, and reversal of resident visa policies (particularly the over 60's, a...
