In the past, the economic growth of countries like the United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Qatar was largely dependent on the crude oil sector. Lately, however, these economies have seen more diversification and the focus of investment has shifted from crude oil to areas like construction and real estate.
Oil is a non-renewable resource and while it has driven economic growth in these regions and created wealthy superpower economies, many businesses and corporations have seen a need to branch out in order to achieve sustainable growth due to falling oil prices.
The infrastructure and real estate sectors have benefited greatly from this shift. There has been a record boom in the infrastructure sector and property construction and development has been contributing more and more to the gross domestic product of these countries.
Dubai is considered the international hub of the Middle East. It has introduced freehold real estate projects and provided key incentives to foreign investors. For these reasons and more Dubai has become a highly sought after location and important global center for real estate business and property investments.
Government incentives that have relaxed visa regulations for property holders have also incentivized people to invest in property within the UAE.
Even Qatar has started offering temporary resident status to investors for the period of property ownership to drive up foreign capital investments in sectors other than fossil fuel.
As these economies focus on moving away from fossil fuel dependency, it is safe to say that the real estate sector will continue to be an active contributor to the economic growth of these countries into the future.
So where do 3D renderings fit into the picture (pardon the pun) for real estate development in middle eastern countries?
Advantages of architectural 3D Renderings for Real Estate Development in the UAE, Dubai and Qatar
A 3d render service is one of the best technologies available to the real estate sector to boost interest and drive purchases and investments. Let’s take a look at some of the benefits of incorporating 3D rendering into your real estate deals and projects.
Architectural Visualization Attracts Clients More Easily
If you are looking to attract investors to your construction or development project, what better way than to take clients on a virtual tour of the property that can be carried out even before it’s built. People are more likely to invest in something that they can visualize and connect with on an emotional level, rather than something that is simply an idea on paper or a non-realistic looking property mockup, like one created by cheap online programs or those drawn by hand. 3D renderings can be photorealistic and even hyper-realistic, with no way to tell you are not looking at a real property.
Makes Presentations Appealing and emotionally engaging
3D exterior renderings can be used for visual storytelling. By including examples of people living in and interacting with your projects we can create a narrative around your property development that really brings it to life and gives a sense of scale and “realness” that is not possible with any other medium.
Adding “lived in” elements and features make your renderings more appealing to the eye and help enhance the value of the presentations you are giving to potential investors and buyers by creating emotional engagement.
Easy to Visualize = easier to invest in
If you are trying to attract potential investors, a series of 3D renderings, 3d floor plans or an architectural animation of your project can help them see and understand all the details of the design. The more tangible you can make design concepts, the more likely an investor is to be able to visualize the possibilities the proposed development will have when it reaches fruition. This makes investment decisions less complicated as your stakeholders will not have to base their decisions on deciphering complicated drawings and plans for the project which can be quite intangible. Having your projects more grounded in reality makes it easier for investor to open their wallets.
Quick Implementation of Design Changes saves time and money
Once you can see your building as it will look in the real world, if there is anything you’re not happy with, making changes to architectural visualizations is fairly fast and straightforward. You don't have to spend hours drawing up new designs or fretting over which furnishings are best as you can quickly and easily see multiple variations before making a final decision. Our software and high speed computer processors let us make any tweaks you want quickly, or to move or add elements with ease until you’re satisfied with the end result.
This ability to see how projects will look before construction begins can also save a lot of money, as having 3D visuals of projects gives both clients and developers an idea of what works and what doesn’t in the design. This makes revisions easier and less expensive since you are making any necessary changes before you actually start developing the property, saving valuable man hours and materials.
Making changes digitally to existing renderings is much easier, less time consuming and more cost effective than drawing up the revised plans all over again.
Marketing your development in the UAe, qatar or dubai Becomes Easier
It’s practically impossible to market real estate without images - as they say an image is worth a thousand words. But if your development does not exist in the real world yet, how are you going to get images? You could use hand drawn concept art, but this will not have the same impact as photorealistic renderings that are visually appealing and which can easily be used in commercials and social media platforms to draw in more investors. Beyond static renderings, we can also create architectural animations for your projects which can be incorporated with other footage of the area or people living the good life to create very compelling marketing materials.
Similarly, we can also create virtual reality tours of properties that are the next best thing to physically taking someone through the finished development. A virtual reality real estate tour can engage buyers in a way that 2D drawings of the project plans can never do.
why you Should you use us for your next project
As economies in the Middle East are diversifying their investment portfolios, the real estate sector has seen a great boost. Government policies and incentives have also generated more interest in real estate development.
Effective marketing is essential for drawing in investors, both foreign and domestic. 3D renderings help give an edge to your property project in the global market as plans can be visualized and revised as many times as needed until your vision is perfect, and without the need to visit the site multiple times or even be in the same country as the proposed development.
So why should you hire us for your next project? We have a global team of 3D rendering experts with hundreds of thousands of hours experience and a great creative drive and passion for real estate renderings. That means that we have engaged 3d rendering pros working almost 24/7 (including while you’re asleep), and the ability to deliver extremely high quality renderings in record time at a great price.
