The World's Most Investor-Friendly Property Market.

A completed freehold property purchase of AED 2,000,000 or more qualifies for a 10-year UAE Golden Visa. The property must be fully paid — a mortgaged property only qualifies if the equity held (amount paid) equals AED 2M+. Off-plan properties from approved developers can qualify. The visa covers the investor, spouse, and children. We manage the full application process for our clients.

The primary transaction cost is a 4% Dubai Land Department (DLD) registration fee, calculated on the purchase price and paid once at registration. Many off-plan developers cover this fee as an incentive. Additional costs include AED 4,000 for the DLD administration fee, and agency/advisory fees. There is no annual property tax and no income tax on rental earnings in the UAE.

The Wynn Al Marjan Island — the first licensed casino resort in the UAE — opens in 2027. This is a once-in-a-generation catalyst for RAK property values. Properties on Al Marjan Island are currently priced significantly below where they will be post-opening. Investors who buy now are buying before the catalyst is fully priced in. Once Wynn opens and visitor data is published, these entry levels will likely not be available again.

Yes. Indian nationals are among the largest groups of property investors in Dubai. Funds can be remitted from India under the RBI's Liberalised Remittance Scheme (LRS) — up to $250,000 per financial year per individual. For larger investments, we work with legal and tax advisors to structure remittances compliantly. Rental income remittance back to India is also well-established.

For off-plan: property selection and reservation typically takes 1–2 weeks. SPA signing and DLD registration adds another 2–4 weeks. Construction timelines vary by project — typically 2–4 years from launch for major developments. Ready properties can be purchased and registered within 4–6 weeks of agreeing price. We brief every client on realistic timelines for each specific property before commitment.
