Independent · Dubai · Ras Al Khaimah

Curated property matches in the UAE, built around your brief.

I help international buyers find developer-direct opportunities in Dubai and Ras Al Khaimah that actually fit, then introduce them to Palmera's licensed team, who handle the regulated sale.

Investment or own use

Your details are used only to reply to you and to introduce you to the licensed team.

  • Independent referrer

    Not a broker or agent

  • Developer-direct

    Projects sold by their developers

  • Licensed sales team

    Palmera's team runs the regulated sale

  • Two markets

    Dubai and Ras Al Khaimah

How it works

Three steps, and you stay in control of each.

A good match starts with a clear brief. Everything regulated stays with the licensed team.

  1. Tell me what you need

    Send a short brief: budget range, investment or own use, the kind of property, where, and when. "Not sure yet" is a fine answer to any of it.

  2. I narrow the fit

    I read your brief against what developers are offering in Dubai and Ras Al Khaimah, and reduce it to the few projects that deserve your time, with the reasons.

  3. Palmera's licensed team takes over

    When you want to go further, I introduce you to Palmera's licensed UAE real-estate team, which handles the regulated sales process from there.

Current developer-direct projects

A selection to start the conversation.

Live from Palmera, so prices, handover dates and availability are always current. Open a project for its residences, payment plan and photographs; I will help you choose which ones deserve a closer look.

Why use this route

Access to the developer, an independent introduction to the licensed team.

  • Direct developer access

    The opportunities come from developers selling their own projects, with the payment plans and handover dates they publish, not from a chain of resellers.

  • The regulated sale stays with licensed people

    Palmera's licensed UAE real-estate team handles the sales process. I do not sell, negotiate or take payments, so nothing regulated is blurred.

  • An independent referral partner

    My job is to match the brief. If nothing fits, the honest answer is that nothing fits yet.

What I do not do: forecast returns, promise price growth or residency outcomes, or guarantee that any home is available.

The brief

Seven answers, and the search stops being a guess.

Browsing hundreds of listings is not the same as knowing what to buy. These are the points I ask about. Any of them can be "open" or "not sure yet".

  1. Budget range
  2. Investment or own use
  3. Preferred property type
  4. Preferred area
  5. Purchase timing
  6. Open to off-plan?
  7. Payment-plan preference

The settings

Where the projects sit, as the developers present them.

Developer renders and photographs from projects in Palmera's catalogue. They show intent, not a finished building.

Before you commit

Five questions worth asking about any off-plan purchase.

Who is the developer, and what have they delivered before?

A project is only as dependable as the company behind it. Ask for completed work you can look at.

What does the payment plan require, and when?

Get every instalment, its timing and any fees written down before you compare two projects.

What is the stated handover date, and what if it moves?

Off-plan dates are targets. Ask what the contract says about delays.

What exactly is included in the price?

Size, finishes, parking and recurring service charges differ between projects and are easy to overlook.

Who will I be dealing with, and who is regulated?

Know which person holds which licence. In this route, the sale sits with Palmera's licensed team.

Questions buyers ask

Plain answers about the route.

Who does what, what off-plan means, and what I will not promise.

Are you a real-estate broker or agent?

No. I am an independent referrer. I do not hold a broker or agent licence, and I do not sell property, negotiate prices or handle money. I help you clarify your brief, narrow what fits, and introduce you to Palmera's licensed UAE real-estate team, which carries out the regulated sales process.

What happens after I send my brief?

I read it, ask a short follow-up if something is unclear, and narrow the fit to a small number of projects that match your budget, purpose, area and timing. If you want to go further, I introduce you to Palmera's licensed team. Sending a brief does not commit you to anything, and you decide at each step.

What does "developer-direct" mean?

The home is bought from the developer that is building the project, not resold by an earlier owner. You work with the developer's own sales terms and payment plan, presented through Palmera's team. It does not mean a price is lower or that a project is right for you: that depends on your brief.

What is off-plan, and is it right for me?

Off-plan means the building is not finished when you buy. You usually pay in stages set by the developer's payment plan and receive the home at handover. It suits some buyers and not others: you are buying from plans and renders, and handover dates can move. Telling me whether you are open to off-plan, to completed homes or to both lets me narrow the options honestly.

What does Palmera's licensed team do?

Palmera's licensed UAE real-estate team presents the projects, answers questions about residences, prices and payment plans, and carries out the regulated steps of the sale with the developer. Anything that is regulated in a UAE property sale sits with them, not with me.

Can you tell me what return I will earn, or whether prices will rise?

No. I do not forecast returns, rental income or price growth, and nobody should promise them. I can help you set the criteria that matter to you, and point you to each project's own information and to the licensed team for the figures the developer publishes.

Will buying property give me residency or a visa?

I do not advise on visas or residency and I will not suggest that a purchase leads to one. Rules depend on the property, the buyer and the authorities at the time. Ask the licensed team about the current position, and confirm it with the relevant authority before you decide.

Can I buy from outside the UAE?

Many international buyers consider UAE property without living in the country. Which projects and areas are open to foreign buyers, and what the process requires from you, is a question for Palmera's licensed team; I will make sure that question is on the table when we are introduced.

Which areas do you cover?

For now, Dubai and Ras Al Khaimah. In Dubai that includes waterfront communities such as Dubai Islands, Dubai Marina and Palm Jumeirah, city-side areas such as Business Bay, and family communities such as Jumeirah Village Circle. In Ras Al Khaimah it includes Al Marjan Island, Mina Al Arab, Al Hamra and RAK Central.
