 Rimi Sen on Her Strategic Move to Dubai

In a recent interview with Buildcaps Real Estate LLC, Sen explained that her decision to relocate was driven by the stability and transparency of the Dubai real estate sector. She contrasted the "investor-friendly" environment of the UAE with the policy shifts she experienced in India.

“Dubai has welcomed everyone warmly... they think about everyone, and the city's major focus is on how to make people's lives better, easier, and more comfortable," Sen stated. She highlighted the stark difference in governance, adding, "This is something we don't really see in our country, because the government keeps changing policies overnight, making people's lives more difficult. There are thousands of taxes, endless complications, and it is no longer a business-friendly nation.”

Rimi Sen Praises Dubai's Professionalism and Market Discipline

Sen also pointed out that the real estate market in Dubai functions with a level of professional respect that she found lacking elsewhere. She noted that in the UAE, property agents are treated on par with financial consultants, whereas the perception in India is often negative.

“The real estate market here functions smoothly because there is discipline," she explained. "In India, if you ask for two months' brokerage, people look at you as if you have committed a crime.” According to Sen, the clear separation of roles between developers and agencies creates a "proper system" that allows for a more sustainable career.
