The number of contributing female brokers working in the real estate sector was 678, according to data compiled by the Department of Real Estate Studies and Research of the DLD.

“We appreciate the essential role played by authorised and licensed real estate brokers, and we encourage customers to choose brokers who hold ‘real estate broker’ identification cards,” said Yousef Al Hashimi, deputy executive director of the Real Estate Regulatory Agency (RERA).

“The accreditation system for brokers that was set in place by DLD was initiated to sustain a secure real estate environment for all parties in the market.
