      Dubai’s Golden Visa requirements relaxed for property investors

      by

      Lifeby Ruman Baig4 hours ago Dubai has recently revamped the eligibility criteria for the coveted 10-year Golden Visa, specifically targeting property investors.The noteworthy change involves the elimination of the previous Dhs1 million down-payment requirement, a move set to redefine the landscape for those seeking this long-term residency privilege.Under the new regulations, prospective Golden Visa recipients are now required to invest in properties with a minimum value of Dhs2 million. This significant adjustment liberates investors from the earlier financial burden of the mandatory Dhs1 million down-payment, offering a more accessible pathway to the esteemed 10-year golden residency.This shift in dynamics means that even those opting for off-plan units can now qualify for the Golden Visa with a considerably reduced down payment, potentially as low as Dh50,000.Introduced in 2019, the Golden Visa initially targeted exceptional talents, offering a decade of residency under their own sponsorship. Over the subsequent years, the eligibility categories for the UAE Golden Visa have undergone expansions, providing a broader spectrum of individuals the opportunity to establish permanent roots in the country.Dubai’s decision to eliminate the hefty down-payment requirement aligns with the broader objective of attracting foreign investment and fostering a thriving real estate market. The move is anticipated to stimulate increased interest from potential investors, as the barriers to entry for the Golden Visa program have now been significantly lowered.This strategic initiative not only positions Dubai as a more attractive destination for property investment but also reinforces the city’s commitment to adapting policies in response to the evolving needs of the global investor community.– For more on luxury lifestyle, news, fashion and beauty follow Emirates Woman on Facebook and InstagramImages: Instagram @visitdubai More

      To renew the lease or relocate? Let the Dubai rental market report 2023 help you decide

      The Dubai rental market is experiencing a transformation, with the latest report shedding light on intriguing developments.
      In recent years, Dubai’s rental market has witnessed a remarkable resurgence, effectively ending a period of negative growth that spanned from mid-2015 to late 2021.
      As of July 2023, the data from the Dubai Land Department reveals a staggering 43.5% increase in the total number of tenancy contracts registered compared to the same period in 2019, reaching a total of 325,727 contracts.
      This impressive growth has translated into average apartment rents reaching their highest levels since February 2017, and villa rents hitting record highs.
      However, beneath these headline figures, a significant divide has emerged in the rental market. The number of new contracts registered has dropped by 12.6%, while renewed registrations have grown by 29.0%. This suggests that tenants are opting to renew their leases rather than relocate due to the higher rates prevalent in new leases, especially in prime residential areas. These tenants are leveraging the protection offered by the RERA rental regulations, which cap annual rental increases at a maximum of 20.0%.

      To provide a comprehensive view, the report analyzed nearly 703,000 residential rental transactions between January 2018 and July 2023, focusing on both apartments and villas. In the apartment segment, it covered 23 different free-hold communities, while for villas, it encompassed 20 free-hold areas.
      For apartments, a noteworthy shift has occurred. Historically, new rental contracts averaged a 5.0% discount compared to renewed contracts between January 2018 and July 2021. However, with increasing demand, this trend has reversed, and in July 2023, new rental contracts commanded an average premium of 20.1% over renewed contracts.
      This change is not uniform across all communities; prime and core markets like Downtown Dubai, Palm Jumeirah, and Business Bay started achieving premiums on new rental contracts in early 2021. Although, secondary neighborhoods have seen relatively negligible premium growth compared to prime areas.
      In the villa segment, supply constraints have led to a different dynamic. Demand for single-family homes has surged, resulting in a 29.9% increase in the number of tenancy contracts registered compared to 2019 levels as of July 2023. Consequently, new rental contracts command an average premium of 25.2%. While this is slightly down from its peak in December 2022, the premium continues to hold strong.

      In conclusion, the Dubai rental market is witnessing a fascinating interplay between new and renewed contracts, with varying trends across different segments. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for both tenants and landlords navigating this evolving market.
