Can non-residents buy property in Dubai?
Yes. Foreign buyers, including people who do not live in the UAE, may acquire freehold property in designated areas. The ownership category and location must be checked for the property being purchased.[2]
A local contact for your overseas purchase
Saima supports buyers from Pakistan, the UK, Saudi Arabia, Canada, the United States, Ireland and other markets. Start with a remote discussion of your budget, objectives, payment capacity and timeline, then review suitable projects and units.
View and compare from abroad
Virtual presentations, on-site videos and remote walkthroughs can help you understand a property’s setting. Saima adds context on layouts, access, neighbouring development and community differences that may be difficult to judge from a brochure.
Documentation and payment coordination
Prepare identity documents and discuss the signing arrangements required for the transaction. Remote purchase routes depend on the seller, developer, bank and registration process. Any power of attorney should be checked for the intended use before relying on it.
Property-related banking and ownership support
Saima can coordinate banking introductions and follow-up, with account opening subject to the provider’s assessment. Support can continue through developer communication, handover, rental preparation and resale planning, with the scope agreed for your property.
