Property management in Dubai
You want rent in your account and fewer WhatsApp fires while you are in another time zone. We run the recurring work—leasing renewals, inspections, vendor coordination, and statements—so you see problems as tickets with context, not as panicked screenshots.
What we run for you
- Tenant lifecycle: marketing, screening, move-in and move-out inspections with photos.
- Rent collection and reminders aligned with your notice periods.
- Maintenance triage: minor fixes in-house routing, larger scopes quoted before spend.
- Compliance touchpoints: Ejari coordination when we handle leasing, community rule updates.
- Owner reporting: monthly statements, year-end pack for your accountant.
Fees
Management is typically 5–8% of gross monthly rent per unit after we see the asset, lease structure, and whether we also lead leasing. Blocks with multiple units or staff-heavy buildings get a custom quote. We publish pass-through repairs with receipts; anything above an agreed AED threshold needs your written OK.
Who we work with
Individual landlords with one to a handful of Dubai flats, family offices placing capital into apartments and townhouses, and founders who bought off-plan and need a steady hand at handover. If you are still shopping, start with our buying guide.
Questions owners ask
What does property management in Dubai include day to day?
Rent collection, tenant communication, move-in and move-out inspections, coordinating maintenance with trusted contractors, and keeping you compliant with community and authority notices.
Do you mark up maintenance invoices?
We agree a management fee as a percentage of rent. Pass-through repairs are quoted upfront; you approve spend above the threshold written in your agreement.
Which areas do you cover?
We focus on Dubai freehold stock: Marina, Downtown, Business Bay, JVC, Dubai Hills, and other investor-heavy districts. Ask if your building is covered.
How are service charges handled?
Service charges stay in your name. We track DEWA and chiller where relevant, reconcile against tenant reimbursements when those apply, and flag anomalies early.
Can you place a new tenant?
Yes. We can renew in-place tenants or run a fresh marketing push with photography, listings, viewings, and offer negotiation under RERA-compliant leasing.
What reporting do owners receive?
Monthly statements with rent received, deductions, and reserve balances; annual summaries for your accountant; and photo-backed snag lists on inspections.
How do you price rent?
We benchmark against live comparables in the tower and micro-market, then set a range based on quality, view, and furnishings. You choose the ask.
What is your management fee?
Most portfolios run between 5% and 8% of gross rent depending on unit count, building complexity, and whether we handle leasing. Corporate-owned blocks are quoted separately.
Do you work with overseas landlords?
Yes. We coordinate digitally for signatures, notarisation where required, and bank payouts in AED to your designated account.
How fast can you onboard a unit?
If documents are ready, onboarding typically completes within a few business days before tenant handover.
What happens if a tenant pays late?
We follow the notice sequence in your lease, register disputes when needed, and keep you informed at each milestone.
How do I start?
Send title and identification documents, your existing lease if any, and building access cards. We send a short agreement; once signed, we activate collections and communication.
