This is not about fashion — the numbers and the rules are what set Dubai apart from every other market our people invest in.
The UAE does not tax personal income — not on salary, not on rental income, not on a sale. The rent your property earns is yours, in full.
In freehold zones such as Jumeirah Garden City, a foreign national is the full owner — registered with the Dubai Land Department, with the right to sell, let and pass the property on.
For off-plan projects the law requires an escrow account: your money is released to the developer in line with construction stages certified by the state. That is the rule, not an option.
A property from AED 750,000 opens the right to a residence visa, and from AED 2 million (~€510,000) to a 10-year Golden Visa — for the owner and the family.
For years Dubai has ranked at the very top of global city safety indexes. The currency, the dirham, has been pegged to the US dollar since 1997.
Dubai's population has passed 3.8 million and grows every year. More people means more demand for housing, especially in the central districts.
Dubai is a five to seven hour flight from most of Europe, with direct connections from major hubs and regional capitals including Belgrade. You can see your property over a long weekend.
Buying off-plan means you pay the developer in instalments during construction — no bank, no interest, no mortgage. A bank only becomes an option for the final portion.
Over 200 nationalities live in Dubai. English is the language of everyday life, and business and paperwork are digitised down to the last detail.
