Everything investors ask before they buy in Dubai — answered in plain English.
Yes. Dubai consistently ranks among the strongest property investment markets globally, offering 5–9% net rental yields, 0% personal income and capital gains tax, full freehold ownership for foreigners in designated zones and a USD-pegged currency that limits FX risk for international investors.
Yes. The UAE imposes no personal income tax, no capital gains tax and no annual property tax on residential real estate. Recurring service charges still apply, but those are operating costs, not taxes.
Yes. Non-residents of any nationality can purchase 100% freehold property in designated zones such as Downtown Dubai, Dubai Marina, Palm Jumeirah and most master-planned communities, with full title registered at the Dubai Land Department.
AED 750K (around USD 200K) is the realistic entry point for a 1-bedroom apartment in a strong yielding community such as JVC or Dubai South, and is also the threshold for the renewable investor visa.
Net rental yields in Dubai typically run 5–9% depending on community and unit type, plus 4–8% annual capital appreciation in established freehold areas. Combined, total returns consistently outperform London, New York and Sydney on a tax-adjusted basis.

Yes. A property purchase with a value of AED 2 million or more qualifies the buyer for the 10-year UAE Golden Visa, with the visa renewable as long as the property is held. Mortgaged units now qualify subject to the standard down-payment threshold.
