Balconies with a view emerged as a top priority alongside larger balcony spaces among residents.

Madhav Dhar, co-founder and COO of ZāZEN Properties said, “The UAE has seen incredible growth in the real estate market and while this is expected to continue, buyers and investors are more cautious of their purchasing habits and are choosing to opt for more sustainable and economically friendly properties that offer all their desired amenities and keep the long term maintenance costs low. In line with COP28 which is expected to take place later this year, and the country’s commitment to Net Zero 2050, we have created a product that allows end-users and investors to purchase apartments that are not only sustainability-friendly, with our LEED Gold certification and on-site solar power, but also provides high quality spacious indoor and outdoor living spaces, and are affordable.“
