Choose a property type 01

Each property type is a different decision.

What matters in an apartment is different from what matters in a villa. Start where your plans point.

Weigh building quality, layout, service charges and the community around it. Check how the payment stages fit your cash flow, not just the headline price.

Three emirates, three sets of rules.

Where you can own, how the sale is registered and what you pay in fees all differ. Each guide sets out what applies to a foreign buyer.

Buying well off-plan 04

How to choose an off-plan project that holds its value.

Five checks that separate a sound purchase from an expensive one. They work on any project, including one you have been offered elsewhere.

Floor plans and a payment schedule laid out on an oak desk

  1. Check what the developer has already delivered

    Visit or look up completed projects of the same type. Were they handed over close to the promised date, and how do they look, let and resell today? A launch brochure tells you little about delivery.

    • Completed comparable projects
    • Handover record
    • Build quality today

  2. Confirm the project is registered and your money is protected

    In Dubai, an off-plan project must be registered with the Dubai Land Department, and your instalments are paid into the project’s escrow account rather than to the developer. Ask for both before you pay a booking deposit.

    • Registered project
    • Escrow account
    • Your sale registered in your name

  3. Match the payment plan to your cash flow

    Put every instalment against a date you can meet, then add the 4% Dubai Land Department fee and registration costs. A plan that runs past handover eases cash flow, but can come with a higher total price.

    • Instalment dates
    • 4% DLD fee
    • Post-handover terms

  4. Price the home on what will exist when you move in

    Schools, shops, beaches and metro links shown in a masterplan can be years behind the homes. Judge the price on what will be open in your handover year, not the finished picture.

    • Built vs planned
    • Handover-year amenities
    • Road and metro access

  5. Know your exit before you buy

    Compare prices of finished homes nearby, rental demand for the layout and the service charge per square foot. Ask how much must be paid before the developer allows a resale ahead of handover.

    • Nearby resale prices
    • Service charges
    • Resale before handover

What you can hold us to

Six commitments behind every consultation.

A purchase this size deserves someone who shows you the full picture, including what could go wrong, before you commit a deposit.

How the firm is paid, and why it matters to you

  1. Every cost before you commit

    Total price, registration fees and each payment stage, set out in your own currency before you pay anything.

  2. Honest about fit

    Up to three options, and fewer if fewer fit. If off-plan does not suit your plans, you are told plainly.

  3. A second opinion on any offer

    Bring an offer from a developer or another agent and have its cost, payment plan and contract points checked before you commit.

  4. Told how the firm is paid

    Before you decide on anything, including whether a developer on your shortlist pays the firm.

  5. Checks before you see a home

    Registration, the project escrow account, the developer’s record and a current price, checked before a home reaches you.

  6. Your time, your privacy

    Video, phone, WhatsApp or email in your time zone. Your details are used only to reply, and launch emails only if you ask.

How it works 08

Three steps, no obligation.

No account, no fee, no pressure to proceed. You decide whether to go further.

  1. 01

    Share your requirements

    Property type, price range, emirate, objective and timeframe. It takes about two minutes, and no financial documents are needed.

  2. 02

    Review suitable options

    Up to three opportunities, each with its costs, payment timings, the reasons it was selected and what to consider. If fewer fit, you get fewer.

  3. 03

    Discuss next steps

    Talk to an adviser about the options, what to verify independently and what reserving involves. There is no pressure to proceed.

Step one takes about two minutes.No account and no financial documents. An adviser replies with options that fit, or tells you plainly if none do.

Questions 09

Answers before you share any details.

If your question is not answered here, an adviser can go through it with you during a consultation.

It is the total purchase price. With off-plan property you usually pay a booking deposit first, then instalments during construction, and the rest on or after handover. Registration and other fees come on top. Every shortlist sets out these commitments separately so the price is never mistaken for the cash you need at the start.

Only after it is completed and handed over, which is often several years after booking. If you need income sooner, tell your adviser, who will say plainly whether off-plan fits your plans.

No. Property values and rents can go down as well as up, and handover dates are the developer’s estimates. Visa eligibility depends on official rules and your own circumstances, and is decided by the authorities.

Many international buyers complete off-plan purchases remotely. What is required depends on the developer, the emirate and your documents. The country guides explain the usual steps and the questions to raise with your own advisers.

Handover dates are the developer’s estimates and can move. In Dubai, payments into a project’s escrow account can only be used to build that project, but escrow does not guarantee completion on the stated date. Read the delay terms in your contract with your own lawyer before you reserve.

An adviser replies by the contact method you choose: video call, phone, WhatsApp or email. Your details are used to answer your enquiry, and launch emails are sent only if you tick that box.

Yes. Name the project in the form, and an adviser can go through its total cost, payment plan and what to check before you pay a booking deposit.

No. The consultation and your shortlist are free, with no obligation to buy. Your adviser explains how the firm is paid before you decide on anything, and the Our Approach page sets out what the service covers.
