And yes, the EXPO is a good opportunity to see prices rise again, at least until 2020.I've met many different people involved in RE in Dubai and I can divide then into two types: those who bought in early 2000 who saw values double in less than one year and those who tried to follow the first ones and lost a huge amount of money.

It didnt even look like the picture on the mls.
