I just saw a Bloomberg article has a fun fact about Dubai:
In the next two years, tens of thousands of new properties will come onto a market where about 40 percent of homes and offices are empty.

Article about Dubai and it’s porous border with cross-gulf neighbor Iran: “Dubai Helps Iran Evade Sanctions as Smugglers Ignore U.S. Laws.”
Money quote from a member of Dubai’s Iranian Business Council (IBC):
“You can get anything you want, and you can ship anything you want to Iran,” says Morteza Masoumzadeh, an IBC director and owner of a shipping company that transports goods between Iran and Dubai. “Every company in Iran is either here or has representatives here.”
