Born and raised in Dubai, Mohammed Fares grew up witnessing the city’s transformation firsthand. By 2004, as Dubai was still shaping its identity as a global real estate powerhouse, construction cranes filled the skyline and new communities were emerging. Opportunity was everywhere, but so was uncertainty. That same year, Mohammed Fares made his first personal property investment in the Dubai market, a decision that would quietly shape his future.
That initial investment opened his eyes to the true impact of guidance in real estate. He saw how the right advice could protect people’s money, create confidence, and influence long term outcomes. This experience planted the foundation for a career rooted in trust, clarity, and client first thinking.
In 2008, Mohammed Fares formally entered the industry as a real estate broker. What followed was not a pursuit of fast success, but a steady journey built on discipline, consistency, and relationships. Today, he is a respected real estate advisor at Engel & Völkers, known for his integrity, strong negotiation skills, and commitment to delivering value beyond transactions.
A City of Opportunity and a Career Takes Shape
Growing up in Dubai gave Mohammed Fares a unique perspective on the city’s evolution. As neighborhoods expanded and skylines changed, he saw how property ownership transformed lives, created generational wealth, and provided long term security.
Real estate was more than an industry. It was shaping the future of the city he called home. That realization encouraged him to move from investor to advisor, helping others navigate Dubai’s fast growing market with confidence and clarity.
However, the path was not easy.
Early Challenges in a Competitive Market
Entering the real estate industry as a broker in 2008 meant working in a highly competitive and unpredictable environment. One of the greatest challenges was earning credibility.
In a market where many focused on short term gains, Mohammed Fares chose patience. He focused on transparency, consistency, and attention to detail. Market cycles tested that discipline, but he remained calm and committed to his principles. Every client interaction mattered.
Over time, trust followed.
