Buying property in Dubai
As a foreigner you can own property outright (freehold) in designated areas of Dubai. The process is fast and transparent, provided you do proper due diligence. We guide you from selection to handover.
The buying process
From reservation and MOU to transfer at the Dubai Land Department (DLD). Off-plan is bought directly from the developer via escrow; for ready property we arrange the title transfer.
Costs of buying
Besides the price, expect about 4% DLD transfer fee plus agency and admin costs. We provide a full cost overview upfront, with no surprises.
