Who Is Pan Global Development?

Pan Global Development is a Dubai-based real estate developer whose founding premise is that Dubai's real estate market, while world-class in many respects, consistently underperforms against global best practices in certain dimensions: acoustic specification, thermal performance, layout efficiency, and community programming. Pan Global was established to close this gap — to import the best practices from London, Singapore, New York, and Hong Kong and apply them with native Dubai market intelligence.

The firm's founders bring direct experience from multiple global property markets. This cross-market perspective allows Pan Global to identify specific areas where Dubai developers routinely make specification decisions that degrade long-term value — and to systematically correct them in its own portfolio:

• Acoustic specification: London residential standards mandate STC 52–55dB party wall isolation. Dubai typically delivers 37–42dB. Pan Global targets London-equivalent acoustic performance in every project.
• Thermal performance: Singapore's Building and Construction Authority mandates minimum ETTV (Envelope Thermal Transfer Value) standards that reduce cooling loads by 25–35%. Pan Global applies equivalent standards in Dubai.
• Layout efficiency: Hong Kong developers achieve 85–90% net-to-gross area efficiency through disciplined core planning. Dubai averages 72–78%. Pan Global targets 83%+ across its portfolio.
• Community programming: New York's successful residential buildings offer genuine lifestyle programming — regular resident events, curated amenity activation, community app platforms. Pan Global embeds this from design stage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How does Pan Global One compare to comparable-priced Dubai towers in specification? A: On acoustic performance, acoustic is 40%+ superior to standard Dubai spec. On thermal envelope, 15% below Al Sa'fat maximum vs. typically right at the limit. On layout efficiency, 85% vs. typical 75%. These differences are invisible in the showroom but transformative over a 5-10 year ownership horizon.

Q: Are Pan Global buildings suitable for international investors used to London or Singapore standards? A: This is precisely the design brief. Investors who find Dubai's typical acoustic standard unacceptable after experiencing London or Singapore apartments will find Pan Global buildings familiar and comfortable.

Q: What is the exit liquidity for Pan Global units? A: Strong. The distinctive specification creates a self-selecting resale market among quality-seeking buyers. Pan Global units have demonstrated 8–12% resale premium over comparable-floor unbranded buildings in the same zone.

Q: Does Pan Global provide property management? A: Yes. Pan Global Asset Services provides tenant placement, rent collection, maintenance, short-term rental activation, and quarterly investor reporting. Management fee: 5–8% of annual rent.
