Portals, brokers, roadshows: all of them earn from the developer's side of your deal. We're paid by you, which is why our advice includes the word "no".
On off-plan, you pay the broker nothing. The developer pays them 2–8% of the unit price, so the advice scales with the ask, not with your outcome. These are the facts of the market you're walking into:
Most of the market is promises about buildings that don't exist yet. Payment plans are real; so are 14-year handover delays.
market data, 2025The people least able to visit sites, verify developers, or use UAE courts are the market's biggest customer group.
DLD, Jan 2026Owners can owe service charges before handover. It's the kind of line item that never makes the sales brochure.
documented rulings, 2025We went looking for a genuine buyer's desk in Dubai before building one. We found almost none. This is the desk we wished existed, from "should I buy at all" to keys and leasing. Take the whole path or just the diligence.
Off-plan vs ready with honest math: payment plan value vs completion risk, and real yield after service charges. Sometimes the answer is "don't".
Delivery history, escrow compliance, litigation record. The checks nobody selling to you will ever run on themselves.
Service-charge reality per building, exit liquidity, rental demand by micro-market. The meter matters more than the render.
The two brokers worth your time, the negotiation, and the DLD process shepherded end to end. You sign; we sweat the sequence.
Structuring the purchase to clear the AED 2M residency threshold, including the 2026 mortgage and off-plan rules.
Handover snagging, leasing it right, and the handful of numbers worth tracking once you own.
Title, escrow, developer litigation and delivery history on any unit you're considering. Yours to keep, whoever you end up buying through.
About to sign? We pressure-test the deal in 48 hours: the price, the payment plan, the clause that shouldn't be there.
Already own here? Annual valuations, resale timing, rebalancing. Advice on when to sell, from people who earn nothing when you buy.
Your goals, your budget, your horizon. Then a straight answer on whether Dubai property fits them, and where.
Two or three options that survive diligence, with the developer checks and the real numbers attached.
Negotiation, contracts, DLD registration, handover. We stay until the title deed has your name on it.
One line about your budget and goal. You'll get a straight answer, even if the answer is "wait".
Capped slots. If we're full, you go on the list, not on a drip campaign.
