International Real Estate.A Personal Approach.

A fast-moving market with many new developments, off-plan payment plans and freehold ownership for foreign buyers in designated areas.

• Foreign buyers can own property outright (freehold) in designated areas.
• Off-plan payments go into a project escrow account overseen by the Dubai Land Department.
• Every transfer is registered with the Dubai Land Department, which charges a registration fee of 4% of the price.
• A property worth at least AED 2 million can qualify for a renewable 10-year Golden Visa.
• There is no annual property tax. Service charges must be approved by the regulator and are published.

Close to Europe, with coastal and city properties and a purchase process led by a notary. Ideal for a second home or a long-term plan.

• Foreign nationals can buy residential property. Agricultural land has restrictions.
• The sale is completed by a notary, who also registers the transfer.
• Check that the property has a registered land title (titre foncier).
• Registration duty on a built home is 4%, plus 1.5% for the land registry.
• Off-plan purchases follow fixed legal payment stages, with the last 20% due when you receive the keys.
