Originally from the UK, Shah Malek witnessed the city’s incredible transformation over the years. What began as a plan to retire after selling his businesses in the UK very quickly turned into a passionate journey in real estate, where Shah went from being an investor to becoming one of the region’s leading off-plan brokers.
Before entering the real estate world, Shah owned and ran multiple award-winning hospitality businesses in the UK. It was there that he learned the importance of excellent customer service and building lasting relationships, skills that later became the foundation of his success in property. His natural drive and entrepreneurial spirit led him to make a name for himself in the competitive Dubai real estate market, especially in the off-plan segment, which was still developing at the time.
Shah’s commitment to excellence brought him to Phoenix Homes, where he took on the role of Off-Plan Sales Director. Under his leadership, the team achieved remarkable success, including being the top sellers in key projects. His deep understanding of the market and hands-on experience allow him to guide his team effectively, turning challenges into opportunities.
Looking to the future, Shah is especially excited about emerging villa communities from the likes of Tilal Al Ghaf to Arabian Ranches 3 and everything in between. Shah also has high hopes for investments in Abu Dhabi and wider parts of the UAE, which he sees as prime spots for future investment. With his clear vision, Shah Malek continues to be a driving force in shaping Dubai’s real estate landscape.
