Today’s investment picture is becoming more differentiated: cash-backed prime property remains resilient, subsidized finance is supporting lower-priced areas, and financial-system reforms are advancing—while regional energy risk is again raising the cost base for both developers and landlords. 1. Lebanon orders a new forensic-style audit of Banque du Liban Confirmed — 2 September: Lebanon has selected […]

Today’s most actionable development is not a price statistic but a legal one: Lebanon has clarified the treatment of several real-estate-related statutory deadlines disrupted earlier this year. At the same time, transaction data show improving month-to-month liquidity, construction supply remains geographically concentrated, banking reform is moving forward without restoring normal credit yet, and Hormuz remains […]
