Our comprehensive package in the UAE

We act as your extended arm in Dubai and take care of all administrative, technical and commercial tasks:

Handover: We accompany the process of completing your off-plan property. Our experts check the build quality on site, record any defects and ensure that the developer makes all necessary repairs before you pay the final instalment.

Furnishing & interior design: In Dubai, the quality of the furnishings is crucial for the rental price.
We coordinate the entire furnishing process – from the design concept to the turnkey completion – to maximise the appeal for premium tenants.

Tenant management:

- Acquisition and credit assessment of potential tenants.
- Preparation and registration of tenancy agreements (Ejari).
- Collection of rent and monitoring of incoming payments.

Technical maintenance: We coordinate regular maintenance (especially air conditioning systems) and quick repairs through our network of reliable local service providers.

Authority management: We support you in opening local bank accounts, registering for electricity and water (DEWA) and with questions about the Golden Visa process.

Why choose home4you for management?

Management in Dubai differs fundamentally from German standards. We bring German thoroughness to the dynamic market of the Emirates:

1. Trustworthy partner: You have a British contact person and contractual partner who understands the local laws in Dubai.
2. Transparency: Regular reports on rental income, expenses and the status of your portfolio.
3. Optimisation: We actively monitor the market and advise you when a rent increase or, if necessary, a profitable resale (exit) makes sense.
4. 0% tax focus: We ensure that all processes are structured in such a way that you can make the most of Dubai’s tax advantages.

Checklist: 5 steps to investing in Dubai

Investing in property in Dubai offers high potential returns, tax exemptions (0% income tax on rental income) and a dynamic market environment. With home4you at your side, you can complete this process efficiently and with complete legal certainty.

Step 1: Strategic needs analysis & budgeting

Before viewing properties, we define the objectives for your capital.
- Investment objective: Maximum rental yield (cash flow) or focus on capital appreciation?
- Property type: Studio, flat or villa?
- Budget planning: Consideration of additional purchase costs (approx. 4% Dubai Land Department fee + administration fees).
- Financing: Clarify whether equity capital or financing through a local bank in Dubai (usually up to 50% possible for non-residents) should be used.
Step 2: Property selection & due diligence

We only present projects from reputable developers in verified locations.
- Location check: Focus on established or rapidly growing areas such as Dubai Marina, Business Bay, Downtown or Palm Jumeirah.
- Off-plan vs. existing: Decision between new construction projects with attractive payment plans or existing properties that are ready for immediate occupancy.
- Verification: Verification of the developer’s escrow account to secure your payments.
Step 3: Purchase transaction & documentation

The purchase process in Dubai is efficient and can often be completed remotely.
- Reservation: Signing of the reservation form and payment of a reservation fee (usually 5% to 10%).
- SPA (Sales and Purchase Agreement): Review and signing of the main purchase agreement.
- Registration: Registration of the property with the Dubai Land Department (DLD) and receipt of the Oqood (for off-plan) or Title Deeds (for existing properties).
Step 4: Payment management & completion

Particularly in the case of off-plan properties, we accompany the construction phase until the keys are handed over.
- Payment plan: Monitoring of instalment payments in line with construction progress.
- Pre-handover: Preparation of the final payment and coordination of handover dates.
- Building inspection (snagging): Professional inspection of the property for defects prior to final handover by our team on site.
Step 5: Property management & yield optimisation

After handover, the management phase of your asset begins.
- Furnishing: Turnkey furnishing to increase rental yield.
- Letting: Selection of tenants with good credit ratings and registration of contracts (Ejari).
- Monitoring: Regular review of market prices for a later exit strategy (resale).
