UAE Property: ‘Is it a good time to buy off-plan in Dubai?'
Question: I am interested to know whether now is still a good time to buy off-plan in Dubai, or should buyers wait for secondary-market discounts? GP, Dubai Answer: Despite the price appreciation over the past few years, I believe now is still a great time to buy a property in Dubai because the market is not going to slow down any time soon. Let's look at the off-plan market first. Dubai's off-plan market remains highly appealing for long-term investors and occupants alike, thanks to attractive pricing, payment flexibility and robust end-user demand. Mid-market and suburban communities such as Jumeirah Village Circle and Dubai South saw asking prices surge over 20 per cent year-on-year in the second quarter of 2025, while luxury villas recorded nearly 10 per cent gains. Against this backdrop, off-plan projects continue to offer developers' incentives that secondary resale cannot match. Some developers absorb Dubai Land Department transfer fees (4 per cent of value) through discounts and other benefits. These alone narrow the gap between launch and resale by 3 per cent to 5 per cent. When you add post-handover payment plans that defer up to 40 per cent to 60 per cent of the purchase price post completion, off-plan becomes an even more compelling proposition. With as little as a 5 per cent to 10 per cent down payment at reservation, followed by milestone payments tied to the payment plan, topping out and handover, buyers can hedge against further interest rate reductions. This staged cash flow is invaluable in today's volatile mortgage market, which is pegged to the US Federal Reserve, allowing you to secure tomorrow's pricing without locking up your entire capital. Secondary market 'bargains' are around, but they are few and far between. When you do find one, they are typically 3 per cent to 5 per cent below launch rates pre handover but these prices vanish within weeks as handover approaches and investor appetite spikes. Buying from the resale market makes sense only if you need immediate occupancy, rental income from day one, or wish to avoid any off-plan late delivery risk. Negotiating with an emotional seller can also sometimes prove difficult, especially if they have unrealistic valuations of their property. The Dubai real estate market has for some time been dominated by off-plan sales. For investors focused on maximum capital appreciation and cash flow management, off-plan remains the best choice. But remember to choose master-planned, blue-chip communities with strong presales and track records. Insist on escrow-backed projects and documented completion guarantees in the sales and purchase agreements. In summary, off-plan today locks in future growth at current prices, while resale must compete on limited timing-based discounts and immediate yield needs. The market is in good health and so as long as your needs are met, you shouldn't go wrong. Q: I've received my annual service charge statement for my Dubai apartment and the fees have jumped by over 20 per cent compared to last year. There's no detailed breakdown and am uncertain whether these increases are justified. What rights do I have as an owner to challenge or appeal against these charges? How can I ensure full transparency over how they're calculated? GW, Dubai Watch: Umm Al Quwain: Small emirate with big beach dreams A: Under Dubai's Strata Law (Law No 27 of 2007, amended by Law No 6 of 2019), every jointly owned property must be managed transparently. Here's how you can enforce your rights: Obtain the detailed budget from the managing agents or developer. You should ask for an itemised service charge budget, showing line-by-line costs (security, landscaping, cleaning, utilities and reserve fund contributions). Once you know the details, submit a request to the managing agent or developer. They should respond within 15 days. Review the owners' association governance. Have you ever attended an annual general meeting? You should receive at least 15 days' notice of an AGM, along with all budget documents. As an owner, you have voting rights on the proposed budget. If the majority rejects it, the managing agent must revise and circulate a new proposal. Join or call an extraordinary general meeting (EGM). An owners' association can be formed when at least 80 per cent of units are sold. Owners can register an association with the Dubai Land Department (DLD). Owners representing at least 25 per cent of the total unit value can call for an EGM to address specific issues – for example, revising service charges or replacing the managing agent. If the AGM or EGM processes fail or you do not have access to budgets, you can escalate to the Dispute Resolution Committee by filing a complaint. You will need copies of all correspondence, AGM notices and your formal budget breakdown request. To strengthen your case, you will need some document comparisons, so benchmark against neighbouring communities to show how much they pay per square foot. Check the accounts yourself if you suspect misallocation such as duplicate invoices, or hire an independent auditor – the costs may be recoverable. Find out whether others in the building feel the same and if so, co-ordinate with other concerned owners because sometimes group complaints carry more weight. Timelines to be aware of are: 15 days to receive the budget after a written request, AGM held annually (with 15 days' notice) and 30 days to file a dispute after the AGM vote. Insisting on full transparency, leveraging your owners' association rights and, if necessary, appealing to the DLD should ensure service charges remain fair and reflective of actual costs.

Binghatti Holding's $500mln sukuk 5 times oversubscribed
Binghatti Holding, one of the UAE's fastest growing real estate developers, has priced a $500 million 5-year Senior Unsecured Sukuk under its $1.5 billion Trust Certificate Issuance Programme, a transaction that was oversubscribed by five times. The Regulation S Sukuk issuance attracted strong regional and international investor demand, with an order book exceeding $2.5 billion. The sukuk was priced with a profit rate of 8.125%, equivalent to a spread of 418 basis points over the prevailing 5-year US Treasury yield, and given the strong levels of demand the issuance saw significant tightening from its initial guidance of 8.500% area. The robust orderbook reflects broad market confidence in Binghatti's credit fundamentals, brand strength, and long-term strategy. The company is rated Ba3 by Moody's and BB- by Fitch, both with stable outlook, said the company. The sukuk will be listed on both Nasdaq Dubai and London Stock Exchange. Muhammad BinGhatti, Chairman of Binghatti Holding, commented: 'Binghatti's landmark sukuk marks a pivotal milestone in our journey, reinforcing our position as one of the region's most dynamic and diversified developers. The strong demand and investor trust shown in the USD 500 million issue from our sukuk programme highlights Binghatti's unique model, a vertically integrated platform underpinned by phenomenal growth and market leading execution.' Ahmed Abdelaal, Mashreq Group Chief Executive Officer, said: "We are proud to have played a pivotal role in Binghatti's return to the sukuk market, having supported their journey since their inaugural issuance last year. The exceptional investor response—both regional and international—underscores the strong appetite for the Dubai growth story and confidence in Binghatti's trajectory. This landmark issuance not only affirms their access to global capital markets but also establishes a new 5-year benchmark for the sector. Mashreq continues to lead in advising regional corporates on accessing international capital markets from inception. Our partnership with Binghatti reflects the trust placed in our expertise and capabilities.' Binghatti Holding's H1 2025 net profit more than tripled to AED1.82 billion, driven by resilient demand for Dubai real estate. The group's total sales reached AED8.8 billion, with revenue climbing 189% YoY to AED6.3 billion. The group launched seven new projects and delivered five developments in H1 alone, handing over 15 projects in the last 18 months. Its AED12.5 billion revenue backlog and over AED70 billion development portfolio positions it as one of Dubai's leading developers. Binghatti currently has ca. 20,000 units under development across 30 projects in prime Dubai locations including Downtown, Business Bay, Jumeirah Village Circle, and Meydan as well as its flagship branded residences in collaboration with luxury partners Bugatti, Mercedes-Benz and Jacob & Co. The company's development pipeline was further reinforced by the recent acquisition of about 9 million sq ft megaplot in Nad Al Sheba 1, which will host Binghatti's first master-planned community, with a projected development value of over AED25 billion, the company said.
