About Dubai
Dubai is the market. Not a sub-market, not a segment — the whole thing. From waterfront penthouses to compact off-plan studios priced for first-time investors, this city runs the full spectrum in a way no other Gulf destination comes close to matching. Our buyers range from end-users relocating from London or Mumbai to seasoned investors recycling capital from completed projects into the next cycle. If you're trying to understand where to put money in the UAE, the answer almost always starts — and often ends — here.
Frequently asked questions about Dubai
Is Dubai a freehold community?
Dubai is part of Dubai's freehold framework — international buyers can take 100% ownership with full title registered at the Dubai Land Department. Purchases above AED 2 million qualify for the 10-year UAE Golden Visa. Properties below AED 750,000 may also qualify the buyer for a 2-year residence visa.
Can foreigners buy property in Dubai?
Yes. Dubai sits within Dubai's freehold zones, where international buyers take perpetual 100% ownership with title registered at the Dubai Land Department. No UAE residency is required to buy, though purchases above AED 750,000 (2-year visa) or AED 2 million (10-year Golden Visa) entitle owners to apply for residence.
What payment plans are available in Dubai?
Most off-plan projects in Dubai offer staged payment plans tied to construction milestones — typically a 10–20% deposit at booking, instalments through the build, and a balance on handover (commonly 60/40 or 70/30 splits). Some developers also offer post-handover payment plans of 1–3 years. Each project page above lists its specific plan.
What fees should I expect when buying in Dubai?
Standard one-time costs for any Dubai property purchase: 4% Dubai Land Department transfer fee, AED 4,000 DLD admin fee, 2% real estate agent commission, AED 4,000 trustee/registration fee, and a mortgage registration fee of 0.25% of the loan amount if you're financing. Budget an additional 6–8% of the purchase price for fees in total.
