Real estate spend forecast

by ArabianBusiness.com staff writer  on Saturday, 21 April 2007

Property services firm Jones Lang LaSalle has estimated that GCC nations could spend US $20 billion on global real estate this year, an increase of more than 60% on last year. In 2006, Arab investors ploughed $7 billion into US property, a decline on 2005 figures, and experts believe more petrodollars could be headed for the Asian markets instead. The UK, Germany and South Africa are also popular.
