Frequently asked questions
Get answers to your most common property questions in Dubai.
Can foreigners buy property in Dubai?
Yes. Foreign nationals can purchase freehold properties in designated areas including Dubai Marina, Downtown Dubai, Palm Jumeirah, Jumeirah Beach Residence, Dubai Hills Estate, and other approved zones. Leasehold options are available in other areas.
What are the costs involved in buying property in Dubai?
Beyond the property price, expect a 4% DLD transfer fee, real estate agent commission (typically 2%), mortgage registration fees (if applicable), property valuation fees (AED 2,500-3,500), and a 10% deposit held in a trustee account during the transaction.
What payment plans do developers offer in Dubai?
Most developers offer flexible payment structures: 10-20% down payment, 50/50 plans (50% during construction, 50% on completion), 60/40 plans, or post-handover payment plans extending 2-5 years after completion. Fido Homes helps you understand which structure fits your financial situation.
How long does the buying process take?
For ready properties, the process typically takes 2-4 weeks once financing is secured. Off-plan properties depend on construction timelines (usually 1-3 years). We guide you through each milestone to ensure clarity and timely completion.
What areas does Fido Homes specialize in?
We specialize in premium and emerging communities across Dubai including Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Marina, Downtown Dubai, Jumeirah Beach Residence, Dubai Hills Estate, Emirates Hills, Jumeirah, Arabian Ranches, and Dubai South.
