The exit is part of the return

When you sell matters as much as what.

A good exit starts with timing, not a sign in the garden.

Returns are not only made at purchase but also at sale. The right asking price, the right point in the cycle and a smooth, correct process decide what you actually keep. For individuals the UAE levies no capital gains tax, a major advantage at exit.

We read the market in your community, agree the moment with you, present the property professionally and handle the NOC and DLD transfer. On off-plan, we also guide the assignment (resale before handover) where possible.

Honest answers up front.

Do I pay tax on the gain?

No, the UAE levies no capital gains tax on individuals. Your tax position in your home country may still apply; we have that assessed by a tax adviser.

Can I sell off-plan before handover?

Often yes, usually from 30-40% paid to the developer, via an assignment with an NOC. The exact threshold varies by developer.

What does selling cost?

Expect an agency commission of around 2% and a developer NOC fee; by market convention the 4% DLD transfer is paid by the buyer.

How do you decide the right time?

Based on the cycle in your community, the handover pipeline and demand. We advise honestly. Sometimes waiting is the smart move.
