Dubai property for Mumbai investors

Buying, selling or investing in Dubai or Abu Dhabi from Mumbai, with an adviser on the ground in Dubai.

Short answerClients living in Mumbai can buy freehold property in Dubai's designated areas without relocating. Tarek Wazzan, Senior Property Consultant at NAAS Properties in Dubai, handles the shortlist, video viewings and document checks, and schedules calls in Mumbai time. Dubai is 1½ hours behind Mumbai. He advises on UAE property only and holds no licence or listings in India.

Working together from Mumbai

Mumbai is an hour and a half ahead of Dubai, so our working days almost fully overlap. Most of the work happens on WhatsApp and video: a first call about your goal and budget, then a shortlist with prices checked against DLD-registered sales and every fee added up, then live or recorded video viewings.

Mumbai buyers often ask about the Golden Visa: the UAE offers a 10-year residence visa to property owners whose property is worth at least AED 2 million, subject to the current rules.

What Mumbai clients usually ask about

Before you pay anything

  • For ready homes: the title deed, the service charge history and recent sales in the same building.
  • For off-plan: the project's DLD registration, its escrow account and the construction progress.
  • The full cost, including the 4% DLD fee in Dubai or the 2% DARI registration fee in Abu Dhabi.
  • Tax in India: take advice there on your own position. I advise on the UAE side only.
