The luxury development will be strategically located at the entrance of Downtown Dubai on Sheikh Zayed Road. It is scheduled for completion in five years.

Dubai described as “one of the hottest property markets” globally

In his statement, Eric Trump has confirmed that crypto payments will be accepted for property purchases at the Trump Tower. The statement came during an interview with The National as the Trump Organization unveiled its $1 billion development project in partnership with London-listed Dar Global.

However, he hasn’t mentioned which cryptocurrencies would be accepted for the payment. If they disclose plans to accept TRUMP, it could potentially help in pumping its price. CoinGape has also released a price prediction for TRUMP coin.

During his interview, Eric Trump characterized Dubai as “certainly one of the” hottest property markets in the world. He pointed to “the amount of tower cranes and the kind of luxury projects being built” as evidence of the city’s strong real estate sector.

Trump highlighted the competitive nature of Dubai’s luxury property sector. He stated that “everybody’s trying to redefine luxury, redefine kind of the highest pinnacle, and they’re all succeeding.”

The executive vice president of the Trump Organization expressed strong confidence in Dubai’s continued growth. He predicted that “Dubai’s real estate market is going to continue to absolutely boom and we’re going to set the kind of new standard in terms of price per square foot and luxury in the market.”

Recent data supports Trump’s assessment of Dubai’s property market strength. According to Knight Frank, Dubai registered 111 sales of homes valued at more than $10 million in the first quarter of 2025.

Trump calls Dubai a destination for the world

Eric Trump emphasized Dubai’s emergence as a global hub for investment and wealth. He mentioned that the city has “become a destination for the entire world.” According to Trump, this status has attracted investment interest from different geographic regions.

This influx of wealth is supported by data cited in the Knight Frank report. It shows that the UAE admitted 7,200 millionaires in 2024, following similar trends of 4,700 in 2023 and 5,200 in 2022. By the end of December, the total number of dollar millionaires in the UAE had reached 130,500. This makes the Emirates as the 14th-largest wealth market globally.

The Trump executive credited government initiatives for boosting Dubai’s property market. This includes residency permits for retired and remote workers, the expansion of the 10-year golden visa program, and overall economic growth resulting from the UAE’s diversification efforts.
