A Mini-Guide to Successful Buying an Apartment in Dubai

 There is one fundamental requirement for real estate investing success. You must make well-informed judgements, rather than allowing instinct or your heart to rule your thinking.

This is a quick guide to the actions you'll need to take in order to make the best selections possible. It's based on global standards, buyer experience in selling and renting to purchasing a family home, and my personal expertise as a highly successful adviser on buying an apartment in Dubai.

Step 1: What you want

Make a financial plan. Whether you're purchasing with a mortgage or cash, for personal use or to rent out as an investment, your purchase should be economical.

Step 2: List your Needs

Make a list of your most important items - You don't want to sacrifice on the number of bedrooms, closeness to schools, work, stores, or the countryside. Consider your family's life cycle and requirements. For example, what kind of house best suits you, crossing off those essentials. Is it an apartment, a ready-to-move-in home, or an off-the-plan home?

Step 3: Location Discovery

Examine a place you're familiar with, or undertake extensive research on the location. What are your goals for this project? What's your move-in date, and what's your resale strategy? Find a Knowledge Partner that is well-versed in real estate and the location you're interested in. A specialist who is familiar with contracts, taxes, and other legal issues to assist you in making informed judgements.

Step 4: Do your Research

After you've defined those requirements, go out and do some market research, compiling a list of the finest possibilities for you. To construct a fact sheet for each choice, ask questions, visit the place, evaluate the local market, and gather critical data. 

A) The median price per square foot, the number and the total value of transactions in the area, and the present and future supply of property. 

B) Research the price per square foot and total property cost for the latest five sales in the area. 

C) Determine if the offer represents excellent value by comparing the price being stated to the data. All of this information may be found on the internet. This will assist you in determining the greatest investing opportunities. The next stage is to go through each property in further depth in order to develop a more accurate information sheet before making a final selection.

Step 5: Final Decision

Before you sign any contract, double-check that it covers everything from maintenance, repairs, and the exchange of keys. Always consult your Knowledge Partner and have them negotiate the transaction on your behalf. Before you finish, visit a property law and tax expert, they are experts who will take care of everything. Finally, after you've found the 'best deal' on an apartment in Dubai don't delay — make the buy or risk losing it.
