UAE Property Investment Forum

DIFC DIFC is the world's newest international financial centre. It aims to develop the same stature as New York, London and Hong Kong and primarily serves the vast region between Western Europe and East Asia. Developments around the DIFC have been scanty, but pricey. Projects like Park Towers, and Sky Gardens have proved successful in their marketing strategy, but have they been good investments?
