Top 7 reasons why buying a flat or house in Dubai is worthwhile
Attractive returns and tax advantages
Particularly advantageous when buying a property in Dubai is the return, which is between 5 and 8 %. If you move to Dubai, you save some taxes compared to the tax authorities in DACH. For example, there is no income tax in Dubai on income from home and abroad.
Cultural diversity
As people from all over the world move to Dubai to create a new living space in the innovative and luxurious ambience, a wide variety of cultures are represented in Dubai. This is only possible because Dubai is generally open to foreigners. Thus, the city inspires with many different offers for people of all origins.
Free visa
Buying a flat in another country is of course also related to the conditions of the visa. In Dubai, it is possible to obtain a free visa if a certain amount of investment is made. Various visas can be obtained.
- Retirement Visa
If you want to enter Dubai with a Retirement Visa, you have to be 55 years or older. On the other hand, an investment of at least AED 1 million in one or more existing properties or in a deposit in a local bank is required. The Retirement Visa is valid for 5 years as long as the requirements are met. - Investors Visa
An investor visa is also a great way to build a life in Dubai. This involves investing money of at least AED 750000 in one or more existing properties and then staying in Dubai for 2 years as long as you keep the property. - Golden Visa
If you invest at least AED 2 million in one or more existing properties, you can get a visa for 10 years. All that is required is that the purchased property remains in one's own possession.
- Retirement Visa
Pleasant temperatures all year round
No sooner do the cold months begin in Europe than the days become shorter and darker. It is not uncommon for rain and snow fronts to move across these latitudes and cause unpleasant weather. If you move into your flat in Dubai, you can escape these problems. The warm and sunny weather definitely speaks for itself.
Booming economy
With 12.8 trillion USD, the GDP in Dubai is particularly high and shows a positive development of the economy. You can join this development when buying a property in Dubai and benefit from the advantages of a flourishing economic situation. The emirate continues to expand and, for example, its Master Plan for 2040 ensures that the city is always developing strategically. This makes a property in Dubai a sensible long-term investment.
A holiday flat to relax in
Whether for a holiday or a much-needed change of scenery, a holiday flat in Dubai is a wonderful choice due to its diverse leisure programme, warm weather and ideal location. Fun and relaxation for the whole family is guaranteed here.
Modern lifestyle
Impressive skyscrapers and extravagant hotels can be found en masse in Dubai. The innovative city not only provides fabulous living options for a lifestyle that is hard to imagine here. Those who can call Dubai their adopted home are also always at the cutting edge of technological innovation: autonomous air taxis, exciting architecture such as that of the planned Moon Hotel or the Museum of the Futures as well as digitalised government services are just a few of the many things that will make Dubai the most innovative Arab city.
