We represent your interests at every stage – from independent advice and transparent negotiations to a secure transaction. You save time and effort, avoid language barriers, and benefit from preferential conditions such as early access to pre-launch opportunities – all without paying commission.
We tailor the process to your pace and preferences. It begins with an in-depth meeting with our DAHLER Emirates team in Germany to discuss your budget, goals, preferred property types and locations. PSI then curates a selection of suitable properties based on your profile. You receive detailed brochures and market insights. PSI supports you on-site in the UAE. Once you’ve chosen a property, we guide you through the entire purchase process and take care of every detail.
Our team consists of carefully selected DAHLER staff from across Germany, each trained intensively in UAE market specifics. Ongoing education and direct collaboration with PSI ensure their knowledge stays current and relevant.
PSI is one of the UAE’s top real estate firms – known for its professionalism, extensive portfolio, and close ties to leading developers. With multiple awards and a multilingual team (including German-speaking consultants), PSI offers tailored support to international clients. Services include assistance with legal matters, banking, and access to exclusive projects – many not publicly listed. Their size, influence and customer focus make them an ideal partner.
DAHLER x PSI gives you access to a wide range of properties in the UAE: off-plan developments, completed homes, and luxury properties in top locations. Whether you’re looking for a high-yield investment or a beachfront apartment, we help you find the right match. Many top-tier listings are off-market and only accessible via partners like PSI.
These are properties still in the planning or construction phase, purchased based on designs and floorplans. Buyers benefit from lower prices and flexible payment schedules. Though there are risks like delays, off-plan properties in the UAE often offer strong returns and are located in sought-after areas.
No prior knowledge is required. Our team walks you through every step, from basic market structures and purchase processes to legal zones like Freehold areas. We make sure you’re fully informed so you can make confident decisions – even if you’re completely new to the region.
Yes – when done properly. Both cities offer stable economies, investor-friendly regulations and transparent legal systems. Property purchases are registered with official departments, payments are held in escrow, and developers are vetted. Add to this a high quality of life and low crime rates, and the UAE becomes a secure and attractive place to invest.
Absolutely. We encourage in-person viewings and help organise everything. If travel isn’t possible, we also offer live virtual tours via video call, with a PSI consultant guiding you through the property and answering your questions in real time.
Reach out to our DAHLER Emirates team directly via phone, email or the online contact form. We’ll schedule an initial consultation (via phone, video or in person) to discuss your needs and next steps. All consultations are free and confidential.
Our DAHLER Emirates team provides services in German. PSI offers support in multiple languages including English, Arabic, Russian, Chinese and French. Most of the process can be managed bilingually (German/English), ensuring clear communication throughout.
Yes. Since 2002, foreigners can buy in designated "Freehold Areas." Dubai pioneered this model, and Abu Dhabi now offers similar investment zones. Ownership can be freehold (full ownership) or leasehold (typically 99 years). Most prime areas fall within these zones. No residence permit is required to buy.
Compared to Germany, costs are low. There are no traditional property taxes – only a one-time registration fee (approx. 4% in Dubai, 2% in Abu Dhabi). No capital gains or rental income taxes apply. Additional costs are minimal, and our services are typically commission-free for buyers.
Yes. UAE banks offer mortgages to foreigners for completed properties, covering 50–75% of the value with terms of up to 25 years. Alternatively, developers often offer interest-free payment plans during construction.
After selecting a property, you sign a reservation agreement and pay a deposit. A Sales Purchase Agreement follows. Funds are handled via escrow accounts and the transaction is registered with government bodies. Final payment leads to handover, with warranties often included for new builds.
Yes. Our after-sales service includes help with letting, furnishing, administration, and resale. We remain your partner long after the purchase.
Rental demand in Dubai and Abu Dhabi is strong, with yields of 6–8% common in top locations. Properties are often let quickly, and rental income is tax-free. Our team advises on letting strategies to help maximise your return.
