A structured knowledge base for serious buyers — from the first purchase to financing, renting out, and eventual resale. Written in plain language, updated regularly, and always available to our clients.
01
From the first consultation to key handover, the standard Dubai purchase involves: shortlisting, reservation, SPA signing, staged payments, and DLD registration. Every stage has a clear timeline and paperwork — we walk you through each one.
02
Foreign buyers can complete a purchase without ever flying to Dubai, via a legally registered power of attorney and secure international transfers. We coordinate the paperwork on both ends.
03
A Dubai property purchase of AED 2 million (approx. USD 545,000) or more qualifies the owner for a 10-year renewable Golden Visa — including family sponsorship. The visa does not require you to live in the UAE and can be applied for once the title deed is issued.
04
UAE banks offer mortgages to non-resident buyers, typically up to 50 – 60 % LTV on ready properties, with rates in the 4 – 6 % range. Off-plan is usually paid via developer payment plans instead. We introduce clients to trusted mortgage brokers when relevant.
05
Long-term (annual contracts, Ejari-registered) or short-term (holiday home license) — both are legal and profitable, each with different tax and operational implications. We introduce clients to reliable property managers.
06
Selling in Dubai is straightforward: valuation, listing, NOC from the developer, and DLD transfer. Off-plan units can also be resold before handover — often with significant appreciation.
07
Freehold ownership, DLD registration, Oqood for off-plan, RERA regulation, escrow-protected payments, and the Rental Dispute Center for tenancy issues — Dubai has a comprehensive legal framework that protects buyers when used properly.
