Introduction
The United Arab Emirates (UAE) is a sought-after destination for real estate investments. With its modern infrastructure, dynamic economic climate and luxurious living opportunities, the UAE attracts many international buyers, including many Germans. This article provides a detailed overview of buying real estate in the UAE and introduces Andreas and Mariam Schmidt from our real estate agency Estatly as the first port of call for German expats.
Why invest in the UAE?
- Economic stability:
- The UAE, particularly Dubai and Abu Dhabi, have established themselves as important economic centers.
- A stable political climate and a growth-oriented economic policy contribute to its attractiveness.
- Tax advantages:
- In the UAE, there is no income tax, no capital gains tax and no wealth tax, which makes the purchase of real estate particularly attractive.
- High standard of living:
- Modern infrastructure, first-class healthcare and educational facilities as well as numerous leisure opportunities make the UAE an attractive place to live.
- Growing real estate market:
- The real estate markets in Dubai and Abu Dhabi offer a variety of options, from luxurious villas to modern apartments.
Steps to acquire real estate
- Market research:
- Before you buy a property, it is important to understand the market. Find out about the different regions and their specific advantages.
- Budget and financing:
- Set your budget and decide whether you want to pay cash for the property or need financing. The UAE also offers mortgages for foreigners.
- Selection of the property:
- Decide what type of property you would like to buy - whether an apartment, villa or commercial property.
- Legal considerations:
- Make sure you understand all the legal requirements and regulations. It is advisable to consult a lawyer who specializes in real estate law.
