Yes. Foreigners can buy apartments in Dubai in designated freehold areas with full ownership rights. No residency is required, and property purchases can qualify for long-term visas such as the 10-year Golden Visa.
The minimum budget for purchasing an apartment in Dubai starts from around AED 400,000 for studio units in affordable areas such as International City or Dubai Land. In mid-range communities like Jumeirah Village Circle (JVC), prices typically begin at AED 900,000. In luxury areas such as Dubai Marina and Downtown Dubai, prices start at approximately AED 1.5 million and AED 1.9 million respectively. Off-plan projects also provide opportunities to buy within similar budgets, often with flexible installment plans.
The choice depends on your lifestyle goals and investment strategy. Villas offer more privacy, outdoor space, and a family-friendly environment ideal for long-term residents and those seeking a luxurious lifestyle. They also tend to appreciate steadily over time. Apartments, on the other hand, are typically more affordable, easier to rent out, and located in bustling areas with high foot traffic. If you're looking for quicker rental income or a smaller initial investment, apartments may be more suitable.
When purchasing an apartment in Dubai, you should plan for additional costs beyond the property price. These typically include:
4% DLD registration fee (Dubai Land Department)
AED 2,000–4,000 for the title deed issuance
Real estate agent commission (usually 2% of the purchase price)
Annual service charges based on the size and location of the apartment
If you are financing your purchase, mortgage arrangement and valuation fees may also apply.
