YOUR PURCHASE, CONSIDERED
Request the brochure, unit floor plan and area schedule, developer quotation, dated payment milestones, booking terms and draft sale agreement. Ask for project registration, escrow information, anticipated completion and assignment conditions before committing.
Review ownership and title, property condition, service charges, seller obligations, any mortgage or tenancy and the proposed transfer process. An off-plan resale also needs a statement of payments and the remaining developer schedule.
Share your preferred city, timing and intended use. Receive guidance on the documents required for your purchase route.
Research checked 3 October 2026. This is a curated collection, not an exhaustive register or live availability feed. AED 25M–500M describes the search brief; individual prices, fees, status and documents require confirmation. Published schedules are subject to the selected residence’s signed terms.
FOR EXCEPTIONAL HOMES

01 / HOW WE INVEST

Find your starting pointYour next property should have a clear role. We consider your existing holdings, payment schedules and objectives to bring more structure to the next decision.
Discuss your portfolio
Think about the next buyer before your next move. We assess positioning, competing properties, selling costs and timing, including the option to hold longer.

ALICE AL RAHEB · PRIVATE PROPERTY ADVISORY02 / MEET ALICE
Ten years in Dubai real estate. An investor’s perspective. A relationship that goes beyond the purchase.
My career began with Dubai’s leading developers and grew through Metropolitan and other leading brokerages. That experience gives me a view of both sides of the market: how a project is brought to life, and how it fits into your investment plan.
I invest, too. Building my own property portfolio with a focus on passive income has shaped the questions I ask for my clients: What are the ongoing costs? Who will rent it? When does the next payment fall due? And what could a future resale involve?
I work with portfolio clients beyond a single transaction, helping them select off-plan opportunities, plan payment commitments, review their holdings and consider the next move. Penthouses, beachfront homes and exceptional villas are where that personal attention meets Dubai’s most distinctive addresses.
Through international roadshows across the UK, USA and Europe, I bring Dubai’s market to investors in person. Wherever you are based, you have one point of contact, local knowledge and a conversation centred on your goals.
Personal consultations in English and Arabic.

RECOGNITION, IN PERSON
03 / DUBAI, THROUGH THE YEARS
From Palm Jumeirah and Dubai Marina to a new chapter on Palm Jebel Ali, I help clients discover apartments and villas with a different perspective. Along Sheikh Zayed Road and in Downtown Dubai, price per square foot tells another part of the story: how location, lifestyle and new communities shape Dubai’s next chapter.

04 / WHY PURCHASE IN DUBAI?
For an international buyer, the decision goes beyond the skyline. Ownership, purchasing power and the wider plan all deserve a closer look.
Foreign buyers can own freehold property in Dubai’s designated areas, including buyers who do not live in the UAE.
UAE ownership guidanceThe UAE does not levy personal income tax on individuals. Your home-country obligations and how you hold the property still matter.

A comparison with Singapore, Los Angeles, New York, Miami and London — selected international markets, not a ranking of the world’s top five cities.
Annual change in prime residential prices · 2025
| City | Price change Full year 2025 | US$1m buys Approx. sq m · Q4 2025 |
|---|---|---|
| Dubai UAE | +25.1% | 62 sq m |
| Singapore SINGAPORE | +7.9% | 28 sq m |
| Los Angeles UNITED STATES | +1.0% | 36 sq m |
| New York UNITED STATES | +0.8% | 34 sq m |
| Miami UNITED STATES | −0.5% | 58 sq m |
| London UNITED KINGDOM | −4.7% | 33 sq m |
In this six-city comparison, Dubai combined the strongest prime price growth in 2025 with the most space for a USD 1 million property budget.
Prime means the luxury segment, generally the top 5% of each market by value. These are historical market indicators, not whole-city averages, net returns or forecasts. Individual properties, currency movements, taxes and costs can produce different outcomes.

05 / INTERNATIONAL ROADSHOWS
My international roadshows create space for a proper conversation: your investment goals, your questions about Dubai and the properties that deserve a closer look.
Across the UK, USA and Europe, I meet investors face to face and work with portfolio clients beyond the event, from the first shortlist through ownership and future resale decisions.
Arrange an investor conversationINTERNATIONAL REACH
International conversations.
Personal guidance. Dubai at the centre.
06 / THE APPROACH
A personal conversation. A focused selection. A decision with the bigger picture in view.
Let’s discuss your plansYour objective, available capital, timeframe and comfort with the commitment set the brief.
We compare the specific property and its alternatives, with attention to price, quality and potential demand.
Payment milestones, transaction costs and the holding period belong in the decision from the beginning.
We consider resale options and an alternative holding plan, then revisit the strategy as your priorities evolve.
07 / BEFORE YOU BUY
Good property conversations go further than the launch brochure.
A development can have many different investment stories. The layout, outlook, position and competing supply help explain whether a particular unit fits your objective.
Start with a complete payment timeline. Consider scheduled instalments, transaction costs and the capital you may need if you hold the property longer than originally planned.
Consider the future buyer, their alternatives and the total cost of a resale. Any exit plan also needs to account for the applicable resale conditions and the possibility of a longer holding period.
