One of the top real estate agents in Dubai
Buyers and sellers looking for the best real estate agent in Dubai want two things: a proven record at the top of the market and someone who will negotiate hard on their behalf. Riyaz has spent more than 20 years doing exactly that, closing 500+ deals and over AED 5.3 billion in sales, from ultra-prime mansions to high-yield investment apartments.
A luxury real estate agent for Dubai’s prime communities
As a luxury real estate agent, Riyaz focuses on the addresses where knowledge and discretion matter most: District One in Mohammed Bin Rashid City, La Mer, Jumeirah Bay Island and Downtown Dubai. Many of his clients buy and sell off-market, and he advises investors on pricing, timing and resale value across Dubai’s prime segment.
