Dubai (United Arab Emirates), Dublin (Ireland) and Las Vegas are named the top three international cities with superior real estate performance.
"Dubai came in first as the urban leader in employment and population growth; Dublin scored well consistently in terms of its economic growth and overall real estate activity; Las Vegas rounded out the trio for being "head and shoulders" above other North American cities in nearly every category... "Our search for the essence of competitiveness is taking us away from the traditional city with its steady, reasonably predictable markets, to the fast, vibrant, technology-rich city of the future where urbanization and information go hand in hand to create new city forms and functions," says Jacques Gordon, LaSalles international director of research."
