Full Transparency

The cost of buying

Beyond the purchase price, a Dubai property carries a known set of transaction costs. We put every figure on the table before you commit — no vague estimates, no fees discovered at the trustee office.

DLD Transfer Fee

4% + AED 580

Paid to the Dubai Land Department on transfer of title. The AED 580 is a fixed administrative fee.

Agency Fee

2% + 5% VAT

Standard brokerage commission on the purchase price, with VAT charged on the commission itself.

Registration Trustee Fee

≈ AED 4,000 + VAT

Charged by the registration trustee office for properties above AED 500,000 (AED 2,000 below that value).

Mortgage Registration

If financed
0.25% + AED 290

Only if financed — calculated on the approved loan amount and paid to the Dubai Land Department.

Bank Valuation

If financed
AED 2,500 – 3,500

Required by the lender to confirm the property's market value before releasing a mortgage.

Developer NOC Fee

AED 500 – 5,000

For the No Objection Certificate confirming service charges are settled and the developer permits transfer.

Worked example — AED 2,000,000 cash purchase

  • DLD transfer fee (4% + AED 580)AED 80,580
  • Agency fee (2% + 5% VAT)AED 42,000
  • Registration trustee (+ VAT)AED 4,200
  • Approx. costs≈ AED 126,780

Indicative only. Mortgage registration, valuation and NOC fees apply if financed. We provide a precise, itemised figure for your specific property before you commit.

What you will never pay

  • No annual property tax on residential ownership in Dubai.
  • No capital gains tax when you sell the property on.
  • No hidden buyer fees from us — our commission is the 2% above, nothing more.

Who We Guide

Built around your reason to buy

A first home and a fifth investment call for very different advice. We tailor the entire process to the outcome you are actually buying for.

01

First-Time Buyers

Buying your first Dubai home should feel clear, not daunting. We walk you through freehold ownership, financing and every fee — no assumptions, no jargon, no surprises at the trustee office.

02

End-Users & Families

Moving in yourself? We weigh the things that don't show up in a listing — school catchments, community feel, service charges and resale strength — so the home lives as well as it looks.

03

Investors

Yield, capital growth or Golden Visa eligibility from AED 2M — we model the numbers honestly and steer you toward the assets that genuinely perform, off-plan and ready alike.

04

Overseas Buyers

Not in Dubai for the purchase? We complete remotely through a notarised Power of Attorney — viewings, negotiation, NOC, transfer and handover, all handled on your behalf, wherever you are.
