New York, London, Lisbon, Singapore, Miami, and Los Angeles took the top six spots. San Francisco, Kuala Lumpur, and Sydney are also among the top 10 cities in the rental index.

Continued Capital Growth

The Savills also predicted that Dubai’s strong capital growth would continue for the rest of 2022 due to the influx of individuals with high net worth and the success of its own Golden Visa program. The emirate also benefited from people’s rediscovered appreciation for a better quality of life, a warmer temperature, and spaces that are more open.

According to Helen Tatham, CEO of Prime Residential Dubai, Dubai is expected to perform the best for the remainder of 2022 due to several factors. The most recent of which was the addition of benefits for those with long-term visas. These changes have given residents the chance to enjoy a higher quality of life nearby.

According to him, there is a growing trend among current residents to consider making Dubai their primary residence over the long term. In addition to a rise in high net worth, expats choose Dubai as just a new long- or part-time residence.

In H2 of 2022, capital value growth is expected to average 2.2% across 30 world cities we track, Tatham, predicted. This is a modest decline from the 2.4% seen in the first quarter of the year.
