    <\/a>1. What is prime real estate?<\/h2>\n

    Prime real estate refers to properties that are considered to be the most desirable and valuable due to their location, size, and amenities.<\/p>\n

    These properties are typically located in prime or central areas, such as city centers, waterfronts, or exclusive neighborhoods, and offer exceptional views, access to top schools, shopping, and dining options.<\/p>\n

    The value of prime real estate tends to appreciate over time, especially due to scarcity caused by people moving in to more cities, driving property values even higher.<\/p>\n

    Hong Kong with its limited residential zone only offers 21 m² of property at $1 million, making it a very expensive yet sought after city to live in.<\/p>\n

    On the contrary, Dubai is a very desirable city, and yet you can get a lot more square metres for $1 million, at 105 m². The same can be said for Mumbai, offering 113 m² of property at the same price.<\/p>\n
