NAVIGATE DUBAI REAL ESTATE ISSUES WHEN SELLING YOUR PROPERTY

Selling real estate in Dubai is full of opportunity, but it also comes with practical obstacles that can delay or even turn a sale around. Many sellers underestimate how complex the process can be when it comes to handling paperwork, dealing with buyers and other practical issues. This is where professional real estate consultancy in Dubai makes all the difference. Knowing how to deal with these situations can either put your property ahead of the competition or drown your offer in the waves of these issues. We listed a few issues that sellers might face in Dubai.

Transaction & Paperwork Hurdles

Delays in NOCs, title deed transfers, and bank clearance certificates slow down sales. Foreign sellers also face challenges with Power of Attorney rules.

Buyer-Related Challenges

Non-serious buyers, last-minute renegotiations, or mortgage rejections derail deals.

Expert Consultant Solution: Pre-qualify buyers, verify mortgage approvals, and handle negotiations to save sellers time and stress.

Pricing & Market Dynamics

Sellers risk overpricing or underpricing due to changing Dubai property market conditions, especially with competition from off-plan launches.

Expert Consultant Solution: Utilise live market data to set accurate prices and position resale properties against off-plan projects, highlighting rental yield and immediate availability.

Property Presentation Issues

Tenants restricting viewings, vacant homes looking dull, or poor staging reduce buyer interest.

Legal & Compliance

Many sellers misunderstand Dubai real estate laws, commission structures, transfer fees, and VAT obligations.

Expert Consultant Solution: Provide clarity on costs, handle compliance, and guide sellers with multi-owner or inheritance-linked properties.

Logistical Delays

Unpaid service charges, mortgage settlements, and multi-party approvals cause frustrating delays.

Marketing Gaps

Poor-quality listings on portals mean fewer leads and wasted time.

Emotional & Negotiation Barriers

Sellers often struggle with emotional attachment, unrealistic expectations, or family disagreements.
