The questions
people ask us.

Yes. Non-residents and residents of any nationality can buy freehold property in Dubai’s designated freehold areas, which include Downtown Dubai, Dubai Marina, Palm Jumeirah, Business Bay, City Walk and many more. Ownership is registered in your name with the Dubai Land Department.

Budget for the Dubai Land Department transfer fee, currently 4 percent of the price, a trustee office fee, the agency commission, and mortgage registration fees if you are financing. We give you an itemised estimate for the specific property before you commit.

From registered transactions in your building and comparable buildings, adjusted for floor, view, size and condition. We show you the evidence, not an estimate from an area average.

Every home on this site is listed with the owner’s agreement on the asking price. We do not publish units we have not spoken to the owner about, so what you see is available and priced to sell or let.

Usually within a day or two. Message us on WhatsApp with the property reference and your preferred time, and we confirm with the owner.

Tenancy contracts are registered with Ejari. Rent is typically paid by cheques for the year, and annual increases are governed by the RERA rental index. We explain the terms of each home before you commit.

Payments for registered off-plan projects go into a RERA-regulated escrow account and your purchase is registered with the Land Department. We check the developer’s completed projects and the registered sales in the project before recommending it.

For resale purchases the agency commission is agreed in writing before you offer. For off-plan purchases the developer typically pays the commission. There are no hidden fees.
