United Arab Emirates
Dubai · Abu Dhabi · Sharjah
The #1 active Lebanese expat hub (~200,000): professionals who arrive renting and become buyers — Lebanese are a top-ten nationality for Dubai property purchases.
Can foreigners buy? Foreigners buy freely in designated freehold zones (most of new Dubai; Abu Dhabi's investment zones). A property worth AED 2M+ qualifies you for the 10-year golden visa.
