The new BBC Three show Dubai Hustle will follow ten 20-something-year-olds as they try to make it in the world of real estate in Dubai. All ten estate agents have upped and left the UK to follow their dreams of making mega money and living a life of luxury.
Compared to Selling Sunset and The Apprentice the Radio Times said: "Brace yourself for a heady cocktail of The Apprentice and Selling Sunset as bragging soundbites (“If they cut me open you’d see sales running through my blood” and “I didn’t fly halfway around the world to be second best” are two classics) are shaken in with jaw-dropping houses."
The sun-soaked series will follow the young agents' fortunes as they navigate their way through this cutthroat and highly competitive world. It's not easy for these young brokers, who must learn to navigate the complexities of the city’s strict code of conduct.
With no set salary the estate agents only get paid commission, meaning they need to sell house after house to thrive. There is also romance and rivalries as houses are not the only things the estate agents fight about. Here is everything you need to know about Dubai Hustle.
