Whether it’s capital investment, diversification, wealth protection or a new home: REAL DUBAI helps you compare properties in Dubai in a targeted way and develop an investment strategy that suits you - instead of chasing every trend. How we go about it and what sets us apart as a real estate agent in Dubai is explained on our agency page.
As a global tactician, you understand the dynamics of different markets and use that knowledge to diversify your investments optimally and minimise risk. Your goal is to make full use of the advantages and opportunities of investing globally. You act with foresight and use your international experience to always stay one step ahead. For you, investing means both financial security and the freedom to use your resources efficiently around the world. You attach great importance to keeping investment costs low so that your first investment pays off straight away. Your aim is not to build a large portfolio, but to avoid risks in a targeted way and start with a smaller budget.
B-C+, e.g. Arjan, Business Bay, Jumeirah Village Circle (JVC)
Studio to one-bedroom apartment (off-plan, ready, pre-launch, “cancellation”)
e.g. EUR 180,000 to 550,000 (depending on interest in a visa)
Long-term rental, building a solid income stream (e.g. outside the EU)
We look for units with a low entry price and solid rental demand and calculate the return for you after all costs. What the numbers don’t support, we don’t even show you.
As a Plan B investor, you deliberately choose exclusive locations such as Dubai Marina or Jumeirah Beach Residence to invest in a larger, high-quality apartment that you could live in yourself if necessary. With a somewhat higher budget, you focus on properties that are suitable for short-term rentals to generate additional income and can also serve as a safe haven in an emergency. Your motto is: “Prepare for the worst, and the best will take care of itself.” You therefore place great value on flexibility and security, and make sure your property is not only a profitable source of income but also a safe harbour in uncertain times.
A-B+, e.g. Dubai Marina, Jumeirah Beach Residence (JBR)
One- or two-bedroom apartment (off-plan, ready, pre-launch, “cancellation”)
e.g. EUR 650,000 to 1.5 million (depending on interest in a visa)
Mainly short-term rental for additional income, personal use when needed
We find the apartment you can rent out today and live in yourself if it comes to it - and take care of the short-term rental if you wish. That way your safe haven doesn’t stand empty.
As a relocator, you plan to move to Dubai permanently, often motivated by dissatisfaction with living conditions in your home country. Political, economic or social factors often play a major role. At the same time, you see the opportunities Dubai offers as a growing metropolis with attractive tax incentives. You invest in a property that suits your new lifestyle and meets your long-term needs, such as access to excellent schools, state-of-the-art medical facilities and a safe international environment. Ultimately, you are looking for a home where you and your family can build a new, fulfilling life and enjoy the benefits of a cosmopolitan environment and a stable economy.
A-B, e.g. Emirates Hills, Jumeirah Village Triangle (JVT)
Depending on family size, preferences and type (usually ready properties)
Open, depending on personal budget and preferences
Personal use, building a new life in Dubai
We help you with the neighbourhood, schools and home - and with your visa, bank account and will. That way you arrive in Dubai not just with a key, but with a plan.
As a portfolio investor, your focus is on optimising and growing your wealth, which is why Dubai is a central part of your global strategy. You are well informed about market trends and have often already built a property portfolio in several countries. You prefer central locations that offer a good balance between affordability and growth potential. With a flexible investment volume that depends on market conditions and return opportunities, you are prepared to invest considerable capital - whether in individual units or entire floors. You look specifically for low-maintenance, reliable tenants, because vacancy is your biggest enemy. Your maxim is maximising the return on investment.
B-C+, e.g. Arjan, Downtown, Business Bay, Dubai Marina
Studios and one-bedroom apartments (especially concepts with a good ratio of investment to return)
Over EUR 2 million
Long-term rental, securing stable income, part of global portfolio diversification
We give you market data instead of gut feeling: prices, rental yields and project comparisons from tools such as DXB Interact. That way you decide quickly - and based on numbers.
As a lifestyle investor, you look for prestigious properties that underline your exclusive lifestyle and give you access to Dubai’s first-class amenities. You emphasise your taste for the special, your luxurious and free lifestyle and your social status. Your focus is on iconic locations such as Palm Jumeirah or Downtown, and you prefer first-class properties such as spacious, luxurious apartments, elegant penthouses or other premium homes. You invest in exclusive living spaces that are ideal for personal use or for renting to affluent tenants. For you, it is not just about appreciation, but also about enjoying the exquisite Dubai lifestyle.
A, e.g. Palm Jumeirah, JBR, Downtown
Luxury apartments, villas, penthouses (ready, off-plan, pre-launch)
Flexible, up to EUR 100 million
Personal use or exclusive short-term rental to affluent tenants and VIP events
We find penthouses, villas and special locations for you - and still examine every property as soberly as a capital investment. Luxury yes, bad buy no.
As an entrepreneur, you are a dynamic, internationally minded person who often runs your business remotely and looks for places that offer both professional and personal advantages. Dubai offers you excellent infrastructure, a tax-friendly environment and a vibrant business scene. You are looking for a property that is not just a place to live, but also an inspiring workplace that improves both your quality of life and your productivity. You also value flexibility that lets you combine work and leisure seamlessly in one of the most exciting cities in the world. You enjoy living in an environment that encourages your professional creativity while offering a high standard of living. Being close to an international business network is also crucial for you.
A, central and lively, e.g. Downtown, Dubai Marina, Jumeirah Lakes Towers (JLT)
One- to two-bedroom apartments or penthouses with special amenities such as co-working spaces (ready or off-plan)
EUR 550,000 to EUR 4 million
Personal use with a focus on a balanced work-life lifestyle, short-term rental to other entrepreneurs or business travellers when needed
We find you a home where you can live and work: central, well connected and easy to rent out when needed. We also help you set up your living and working space.
As a sustainability investor, your financial decisions are guided not only by returns but also by your environmental and social values. You act out of ethical conviction and with rational foresight. You look specifically for properties in Dubai that meet high environmental standards and use sustainable building methods. For you, it is crucial that your investments have a positive impact on the environment and are future-proof. You are convinced that sustainable properties will not only help protect the planet in the long term but will also increase in value, as more and more people and companies opt for green solutions. Modern, technological approaches give you a promising outlook for the future of your investments.
A-B+, especially “green” projects such as The Sustainable City or Al Barari
Energy-efficient large apartments or villas, eco-friendly residential complexes that meet strict environmental standards (off-plan, pre-launch)
EUR 1 million to EUR 5 million
Personal use with a focus on eco-friendly living, short-term rental to like-minded tenants when needed
We show you projects that are built and run sustainably - and check that the numbers still add up. Green on its own is not a good investment.
As an individualist investor, you stand apart from the classic patterns and norms of property investment and don’t fit into conventional categories. You have clear ideas of what you want, even if they aren’t mainstream. You are willing to invest in unusual properties that others may find unattractive, but that are exactly right for you. Returns are not your main interest, because your investment is often an expression of your personal life plan and creative ambitions. You look for properties that reflect your individuality and lifestyle - be it a loft, a converted warehouse or a villa with avant-garde architecture. For you, the property is a creative expression of your lifestyle that can also include cultural and artistic aspects.
Off the beaten track, e.g. Alserkal Avenue for art and culture projects
Loft apartments, converted warehouses, artist studios, villas with extraordinary architecture or concept homes (ready, off-plan)
Flexible, depending on the unique value and character of the property, typically from EUR 150,000 to EUR 2 million
Personal use, often combined with creative or cultural projects such as art galleries, event spaces or innovative living concepts
We listen first and then search specifically for the special: a loft, a studio or a villa with character. And we tell you honestly how easy such a property will be to resell later.
