Buying off-plan property in Dubai: What happens if the developer delays?
Question: I am considering purchasing an off-plan property in Dubai. If the developer fails to deliver as promised, what legal recourse do I have? Answer: In Dubai, a purchaser and a developer (seller) enter into a Sale Purchase Agreement (SPA) about the property which is sold on an off-plan basis. The SPA will include clauses regarding the purchase price, completion date, compensation for breaches, and force majeure terms (beyond the control of the parties to the agreement), among others. Therefore, the relationship between the purchaser and the developer (seller) is governed in accordance with the agreed-upon terms and conditions of the SPA. The SPA will be implemented in good faith in accordance with the clauses mentioned in it. This is by Article 246 (1) of the Federal Law No. (5) of 1985 On the Civil Transactions Law of the United Arab Emirates, which states, '1. The contract shall be implemented according to the provisions contained therein and in a manner consistent with the requirements of good faith." Stay up to date with the latest news. Follow KT on WhatsApp Channels. Furthermore, in the event of a breach of any of the clauses in the SPA, one of the parties may be entitled to compensation as mentioned in the SPA or as determined by a judge in a court with jurisdiction in Dubai. This is by Article 295 of the UAE Civil Transactions Law, which states, 'Damages will consist of a money payment. Upon request of the victim, however, the judge may, by the circumstances, order that the damage be made good by restoring the parties to their original status, or by performing, in compensation, a specific matter connected with the prejudicial act.' Additionally, if a dispute arises with a seller (developer), a purchaser may approach the Dubai Land Department (DLD) to settle the matter amicably. This is by Article 14 of the Executive Council Resolution No. 6 of 2010 Approving the Implementing by law of Law No., 13 of 2008 Regulating the Interim Real Property Register in the Emirate of Dubai (the 'Executive Council Resolution No. 6 of 2010'), which states, 'Where any dispute between a developer and a purchase, the DLD may undertake conciliatory efforts to preserve their contractual relationship and may propose any solutions it deems appropriate to achieve this objective. Where the developer and the purchaser reach an amicable settlement, that settlement shall be documented in a written agreement executed by the developer and the purchaser or their respective representatives. Upon approval of that agreement by the DLD, it shall become binding on both parties.' Furthermore, based on a complaint made by a purchaser, if the DLD is satisfied that the developer (seller) has committed breaches of the SPA, it may prepare a report and refer it to competent authorities for further action or decision. This is under Article 13 of Law No. 13 of 2008 regulating the Interim Real Property Register in the Emirate of Dubai, which states, 'Where it is established to the satisfaction of the DLD that the developer or broker has committed any act or omission in violation of the provisions of this law, or any other legislation in force, the Director General of the DLD must prepare a report on the same and refer the case to the competent entities for investigation.' However, a developer (seller) may plead before a competent authority or a court that it was not able to fulfil obligations mentioned in the SPA related to the handover of property due to force majeure (reasons beyond the control of a developer). This is by Article 21 of Executive Council Resolution No. 6 of 2010. Based on the aforementioned provisions of law, if there is a delay by your developer (seller) in handing over the apartment to you as agreed by the developer (seller), you may initially approach the DLD and file a complaint against the developer (seller) before approaching a court. Alternatively, you may directly approach a court with jurisdiction in Dubai to file a civil case against the developer (seller) and seek compensation for the delay in the handover of the apartment to you. The court may decide your case whether you are entitled to compensation based on the provisions of the SPA.

6 sensational new hotel openings to plan trips around this summer
Summer is just getting started, but if you're still unsure of where to go, make plans around some of the world's most exciting new hotel openings for summer 2025. From sun-drenched spots on the Aegean to a hotly anticipated safari lodge, these 6 hotels are the rooms to book this season. OKU Bodrum, Turkey Bringing OKU's rustic-luxe aesthetic from Ibiza and Kos to the Turkish Riviera this summer is OKU Bodrum. Open from mid-July, this sophisticated adults-only hideaway is a boutique retreat of 58 rooms and suites overlooking the shimmering Aegean sea. The suites with private pools promise elevated exclusivity, with walk-in wardrobes, freestanding tubs and stretching views across the cove. Gourmands can enjoy sundowners on a bar on the jetty, elevated Japanese dishes at open-air Teyo restaurant, and graze on Mediterranean sharing plates by the pool. The spa promises curated wellness rituals, a yoga shala atop the cliffs and cabanas for alfresco treatments. Rates: From Dhs1,815 per night SIRO Boka Place, Montenegro Dubai-born SIRO Hotels has expanded to Europe with the opening of SIRO Boka Place. Bringing its unique approach to fitness and recovery to the shores of the Adriatic, the hotel is all about active living. While the Dubai hotel is an urban inner-city escape, the Porto Montenegro iteration is a haven of nature and adventure, with an extensive offering of 'destination fitness' activities that make the most of the local landscape. Think hiking, sailing, mountain biking and exhilarating watersports. Back on property, a locally inspired restaurant and rooftop bar are all about balance, where guests can refuel on nourishing dishes in social settings. Rates: From Dhs1,350 per night The Ritz-Carlton Masai Mara, Kenya Luxurious Ritz-Carlton will debut its first luxury safari camp in mid-August, bringing the brand's legendary service and refined style to the heart of Kenya's Masai Mara. A secluded camp of 20 spacious tented suites, it promises front row seats to the Great Migration (June to October) from its enviable perch on the banks of the Sand River. But beyond the migration season, it's a prime spot for seeing the Big Five up close. Sustainably designed, materials have been sourced from local artisans, and partnerships with local guides and storytellers support the local community and culture while providing an immersive and authentic experience for guests. Rates: From Dhs22,677 per night Tella Thera, Crete, Greece A new eco-retreat with a rustic-luxe feel, Tella Thera will welcome guests from July 14 to explore the untamed beauty of Crete's Bay of Kissamos. Built into a hill encased by olive trees, the nature-inspired rooms and suites all come with earthy tones, private terraces and sweeping Aegean vistas. Designed as a haven of wellness, the spa will be a standout experience, going far beyond the traditional to offer rejuvenating soaks in a magnesium pool, relaxing stretches with guided yoga sessions at the outdoor pavilion, and mood-balancing chromotherapy showers. Guests can enjoy the usual spoils of a seaside resort – Mediterranean dining, dips in the pool, but also engage in workshops and activities that connect with the locale: think bread baking, cooking classes and making ceramics. Rates: From Dhs1,775 per night Orient Express La Minerva, Rome, Italy Having been a timeless icon of luxury rail travel for over 140 years, new life is being breathed into Orient Express with the debut of Orient Express La Minerva, the brand's first hotel. The property is anchored in as much history as you'd expect from the first Orient Express hotel, having transformed a 17th-century palazzo in Rome's Piazza della Minerva into a refined and revived luxury stay. Immaculate attention to detail has been paid by artist-architect Hugo Toro, and the resulting property features rich and retro patterns, striking sculptures, and Art Deco touches. Dubai dwellers will likely recognise rooftop restaurant Gigi Rigolatto – a partnership with Paris Society and Rikas Hospitality; and the soon-to-open Mimi Kakushi, bringing opulent Japanese flavour to the hotel later this year. Rates: From Dhs5,335 per night Villa Miraé, Cap D'Antibes, France Impérial Garoupe is reborn as Villa Miraé Cap d'Antibes, part of the renowned Relais & Chateaux portfolio. A boutique salmon pink oasis in the heart of the sublime Cap d'Antibes in the South of France, it oozes retro glamour with modern effervescence. Inspired by sea, sun and verdant gardens, the 35 rooms and suites are glorious havens to base yourself at for a sojourn to the Côte d'Azur this summer. Elsewhere, Michelin-pedigree gastronomy comes from the mind of star chef Mauro Colagreco, behind two signature dining experiences; and relaxation awaits at the sun-drenched pool and solarium, which both lull guests into a serene stillness.
