Umm Al Quwain Property The property ownership law of Umm Al Quwain states that foreigners are allowed to own property, but not the land, which complicates the ownership issue a little. Foreigners are still not convinced that Umm Al Quwain will live up to the investor expectations and hence property uptake has been very limited. Tameer, the largest development company in Umm Al Quwain, is developing a project called Al Salam City which is due to complete by 2010. Has investor uptake been good on this project, and if so, what have the returns been? Will Umm Al Quwain be successful in boosting its property market? Share your thoughts and views here.
