Area guide

Dubai — the complete area guide

Overview

Dubai is the most mature and liquid property market in the UAE, opened to foreign ownership under the 2002 Freehold Law. Buyers own outright in designated freehold zones such as Dubai Marina, Downtown, Palm Jumeirah, Business Bay and Jumeirah Village Circle.

Location & living

There is no property, capital-gains or rental-income tax, and qualifying purchases can support a Golden Visa. Demand spans resident end-users and global investors, with off-plan a significant share of transactions.

Strengths

+ Freehold ownership open to all nationalities
+ No property or rental income tax
+ Deep, liquid market with strong rental demand

Considerations

− Prime areas command premium prices
− Large off-plan pipeline can affect supply timing
