Can foreigners buy property in Dubai?

Yes. Foreign nationals can purchase freehold properties in designated areas of Dubai with full ownership rights. Sky Diplomat handles the entire process including title deed registration with the Dubai Land Department (DLD), giving you the same protections as any local owner.

What is the Dubai Golden Visa via real estate?

Investing AED 2 million or more in eligible UAE real estate qualifies you for a 10-year renewable Golden Visa, including residency for your spouse and children. Sky Diplomat advisors guide you through eligible properties and the complete application process.

What is the average rental yield in Dubai?

Dubai's gross rental yields typically range from 5% to 9% depending on community, property type and management. Apartments in JVC, Business Bay and Dubai Marina often deliver the strongest yields, while ultra-luxury Palm Jumeirah and Downtown villas focus more on capital appreciation.

What fees apply when buying property in Dubai?

Buyers typically pay a 4% DLD transfer fee, a fixed AED 580 admin fee, agency commission (usually 2%), and trustee office fees of AED 4,000–5,000. Total transaction costs are approximately 6–7% of the purchase price.

What is off-plan property and how does it work?

Off-plan properties are sold before construction is complete, usually with attractive payment plans linked to construction milestones and post-handover periods of up to 5 years. Sky Diplomat works directly with all major Dubai developers for early-access allocations and the best pre-launch pricing.

Do I need to be in Dubai to buy property?

No. Sky Diplomat handles international buyers regularly. Property purchases can be completed remotely via Power of Attorney, with virtual viewings, digital contracts, and remote DLD registration. Many of our clients have never visited Dubai before completing their investment.

What is RERA and DLD?

DLD is the Dubai Land Department — the government authority regulating property transactions. RERA (Real Estate Regulatory Agency) is its regulatory arm overseeing brokers, agents, and developers. Sky Diplomat is fully RERA licensed and DLD registered.

Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident?

Yes. Non-residents can obtain mortgages from UAE banks with loan-to-value ratios typically up to 50–60%. Sky Diplomat works with leading mortgage brokers to secure the best rates for international clients.
