Dr. Salman Bin Ali was named Best Realtor of the Decade at the 2024 Gulf Achievers Awards, held at Ramee Dream Hotel. Gulf Today reported the award on 16 October 2024, noting that the ceremony was attended by senior government officials and leaders from finance, technology and construction.
The award
The Gulf Achievers Awards recognise individuals and businesses across the region. Dr. Salman Bin Ali received the real estate honour in his capacity as CEO of DXBA.com, the property platform within the same group as CBA Real Estate.
In accepting the award, Dr. Salman Bin Ali said it reflected the trust his clients had placed in him and his commitment to moving the real estate industry forward.
A growing list of recognition
Gulf Today listed a number of other honours Dr. Salman Bin Ali had received, including:
- Men's Journal Top 10 Entrepreneurs in 2023
- Global Excellence in Real Estate Leadership, The Apex Summit
- Elite Innovator of Luxury Properties, Pinnacle Global Awards
- Master of Market Strategy, Zenith Business Honors
- Unrivaled Real Estate Leadership, Summit of Industry Titans
- Legendary Client Impact Award, Horizon Global Excellence
The report also noted his activity in property markets beyond Dubai, including Monaco, France and London.
Why it matters
Dubai's property market is crowded, and recognition from industry bodies is one way clients can gauge experience. The award came at a time when Dr. Salman Bin Ali was building both DXBA.com and CBA Real Estate, combining technology-led marketing with personal advisory service.
Dr. Salman Bin Ali has often described his work in terms of the relationships it creates. Gulf Today recalled a line he has used before about building legacies rather than simply closing deals, a reflection of his focus on long-term client outcomes.
What it means for clients
For buyers and sellers working with CBA Real Estate, the practical value of this recognition lies in the experience behind it. Accurate pricing, access to the right buyers and careful handling of each transaction are the things that make a difference to clients, and they remain the focus for the team.
