Invest and/or live in Dubai? All the intel is in THIS Conversation...
(Please remember there is no intention to give investment advice)
In this episode, we sit down for our second conversation with Saif, a leading Dubai property advisor, who takes us step-by-step through the Emirate’s real-estate landscape -from off-plan mechanics and escrow safeguards to the true costs of entry (think ~£204K for a one-bed plus 20% deposit and 4% DLD fee).
This episode addresses the question a first time buyer, or potential private homeowner in the UAE, will ask - and then moves onto the property investor questions and answers.
He’ll walk us through where you can do holiday lets (spoiler: it’s 95% of the market), unpack why Dubai’s yields routinely outshine London, Tokyo, or New York, and show how a data-driven mindset keeps you away from hype-fueled pitfalls.
Saif also highlights Dubai’s landlord-tenant framework—one that strikes an even balance and genuinely supports property owners—contrasting it with the UK’s more tenant-favoring system. He shares why this fairness makes Dubai such an attractive market for buy-to-let investors.
We’ll also explore game-changing projects like Marjan Island (with its soon-to-open Wynn casino) and the eco-forward Siniya development, and discover how a 750K AED ( at the time of publishing this is around £154,000) investment can even unlock a two-year residency visa. Tune in for all the inside intel—what’s hot, what to avoid, and exactly why Dubai remains one of the world’s most compelling property plays.
