DAMAC Properties is a property development company in the Middle East, based in Dubai, in the United Arab Emirates.

History

The company is part of the DAMAC Group. On 4 November 2013, DAMAC Properties announced a plan to raise around $500 million from a sale of global depository receipts on the London Stock Exchange.[1] On 3 December 2013, DAMAC Properties became the first Dubai Real Estate Company from the Middle East region to list on the London Stock Exchange through a global depository receipts programme.[2]

Residential Developments

DAMAC Properties has released a second residential development in Dubai known as AKOYA Oxygen.[3] On 8 December 2014, the company announced that Tiger Woods would design the Trump World Golf Club, Dubai, which will sit at the centre of AKOYA Oxygen.[4] The course was also announced to be designed by world-renowned golf course architect Gil Hanse.[5]

This follows its 42 million square foot development, AKOYA by DAMAC. The company has delivered almost 12,000 units to date and currently has a development portfolio of over 39,000 units at various stages of progress and planning as of September 30, 2014, which includes over 10,000 hotel rooms and serviced hotel apartments.
