Property investment firm RWinvest has officially launched its first international headquarters in the United Arab Emirates.

The move marks a significant milestone in the businesses 21-year journey and represents a strategic step in strengthening its global footprint.

Established in Liverpool, with operations in London and Manchester, RWinvest works with development partners including Legacie, Nexus Residential and Caro Developments. The company focuses on buy-to-let opportunities in regeneration areas, selecting locations with sustained tenant demand and the potential for long-term capital growth.

The UAE office is located on Sheikh Zayed Road in Dubai and provides RW a base for engaging with international and GCC (Gulf Cooperation Council) investors interested in the UK market. The office supports communication with existing investors and facilitates meetings with prospective investors through in-person discussions, briefings and events in the region.

To support its expansion in the region, RWinvest has appointed Lori Driscoll as director for the GCC. She previously served as sales manager at RWinvest from 2016 to 2019 before relocating to the Middle East. With more than 10 years’ experience in regional business development and strategic partnerships, she will oversee growth across the GCC and act as a point of contact for investors considering UK property opportunities.

Speaking about her appointment, Lori (pictured), says: “The Middle East, particularly the GCC, remains one of the most influential sources of international capital flowing in the UK property market and the UK remains a core market for global investors seeking a combination of legal certainty, transparent regulation and consistent rental demand.

“RWinvest’s presence in the region will enable us to support this demand more effectively, whilst providing investors with trusted guidance and exclusive opportunities.”

“Having a team on the ground in the UAE means that our clients can come into the office, sit down with us and work through their portfolio strategy in person, rather than everything being done remotely.

Michael Gledhill, CEO of RWinvest, adds: ““The opening of our Dubai office marks a significant new chapter for RWinvest and our commitment to international growth. This expansion enhances our ability to connect global investors with high-quality UK property opportunities, while strengthening our long-standing commitment to transparency and long-term value.

“For GCC investors, UK property can act as a hedge, a source of stable income and long–term capital growth play. The Dubai office is here to make accessing that market simpler, clearer and more personal.

“For more than two decades, we’ve earned a reputation for excellence in UK property investment. Bringing our expertise to a global audience marks the start of an exciting new era for RWinvest.”
