  • What makes investing in off-plan properties attractive?
    Developer Incentives: One of the key advantages is the array of incentives offered by developers. These can include affordable entry prices coupled with substantial discounts, promotions, and waivers for Dubai Land Department's 4% registration fees. These incentives can significantly reduce the overall cost of acquiring the property. Capital Appreciation: Investing in off-plan properties allows buyers to potentially benefit from capital appreciation as the construction progresses, particularly when purchasing during the project's initial stages. The property's value often increases as the development advances, potentially resulting in profitable returns upon completion. Flexible Payment Options: Off-plan purchases typically come with flexible payment plans tailored to the construction timeline. Buyers are usually required to make a down payment, which typically ranges from 10% to 20% of the total property price. This down payment is followed by convenient installment payments that coincide with construction milestones, ensuring a manageable financial commitment. Post-Handover Payment Plans: Some developers also offer post-handover payment plans, allowing buyers to spread their payments over an extended period, typically 3 to 6 years, after the property is completed. What makes these plans even more attractive is the possibility of interest-free installment options, providing further flexibility in managing the financial aspect of property ownership.
  • Can you obtain residency by purchasing property?
    Yes, acquiring property in Dubai can lead to obtaining residency in the United Arab Emirates (UAE). However, the process varies depending on the type of property.

This visa is typically valid for up to 10 years and can be renewed as long as you maintain ownership. It allows you to reside in the UAE and enjoy certain benefits as an investor visa holder.
