FAQ
Common questions on buying Dubai property
- Can I buy Dubai property remotely from abroad?
- Yes. The full purchase, selection, reservation, contracts, payment and title transfer, can be completed remotely, with a power of attorney where needed. Square² supports remote buyers in English, Arabic and French.
- Does buying property in Dubai grant UAE residency or the Golden Visa?
- It can. A property investment of AED 750,000 or more can qualify for a 2-year investor visa, and AED 2 million or more can qualify for the 10-year Golden Visa. Square² advises which properties meet the thresholds and manages the residency process alongside the purchase.
- Off-plan or secondary property, which is better for an investor?
- Off-plan usually offers lower entry prices, staged payment plans and higher appreciation potential while under construction, but you wait for handover. Secondary (ready) property generates rental income immediately. Square² advises on both based on your goals for yield, growth and timing.
- What fees and costs apply when buying property in Dubai?
- Budget roughly 7–8% on top of the price: a 4% Dubai Land Department transfer fee, agency commission of about 2%, plus registration and conveyancing fees. Off-plan purchases may also carry an Oqood registration fee. There is no annual property tax in Dubai.
- Is Square² a RERA-registered real estate brokerage?
- Yes. Square² Real Estate is registered with the Dubai Land Department and RERA under office registration number (ORN) 1375771, operating from Office 803, Lake Central Tower, Business Bay, Dubai.
- What languages is Square²'s advisory offered in?
- Square²'s senior advisors work in English, Arabic and French, supporting international investors buying Dubai property from abroad.
- Does Square² handle property management after purchase?
- Yes. Square² offers end-to-end asset and property management, including long-term leasing and licensed short-term (holiday-home) rental setup and management.
- What rental yields can I expect on Dubai property?
- Dubai typically offers gross rental yields of around 5–8%, higher than most global cities, and rental income is tax-free. Actual yield depends on area, property type and letting strategy; Square² models expected net yield before you buy.
