RH Luxury Properties has launched new initiatives designed to connect Dubai’s vibrant real estate market with Africa’s wealthiest individuals. The company’s founder, Rebiha Helimi, emphasized the significance of this market, stating, “It’s a very important market and gap that needs bridging so that’s what we are doing”.

To facilitate this connection, RH Luxury Properties plans several high-profile roadshows in Africa. These events will also bring prominent African investors to Dubai to showcase the emirate’s premier real estate offerings. Helimi highlighted the substantial growth in Dubai’s real estate sector, noting that foreign nationals own around 43% of residential properties in the city, which amounts to an additional $23 billion in investment.

She pointed out the increasing prominence of African investors, mentioning that the continent is home to approximately 135 200 high-net-worth individuals with total assets of $2.5 trillion. Helimi further noted that the “Big 5” wealth markets—South Africa, Egypt, Nigeria, Kenya, and Morocco—are particularly significant, accounting for 56% of Africa’s millionaires and over 90% of its billionaires. RH Luxury Properties is actively matching investors from these countries with suitable properties in Dubai, aiming to become their preferred investment channel.
