Residential portfolios built unit by unit, reviewed as one asset

We assemble and manage multi-unit residential holdings in Dubai and the wider UAE: ready, off-plan and branded residences, selected against a written investment brief rather than a launch calendar.

What we do

  • Portfolio brief: income, growth, residency or succession objectives, written down and agreed
  • Shortlists across ready, off-plan and branded residences, with developer and project checks
  • Payment-plan scheduling across several units so cash calls do not cluster
  • Golden Visa planning for holdings worth AED 2 million or more
  • Snagging, handover, leasing set-up and annual portfolio review

What we check before you commit

  • Developer track record and project registration with RERA
  • Escrow account details and construction progress for off-plan units
  • Service charges, community rules and short-let permissions
  • Rental evidence from registered tenancies, not asking rents
  • Resale conditions, including developer NOCs for off-plan units

Typical holding structures

  • Personal ownership
  • Joint ownership within a family
  • UAE company or free-zone entity
  • Holding through a foundation or family vehicle

Structures are chosen with your legal and tax advisors. Evara does not give legal or tax advice.

Questions investors ask

Can a residential portfolio qualify for the Golden Visa?

Yes. The Dubai Land Department accepts one or more properties with a combined value of at least AED 2 million. A mortgaged property can qualify with a no-objection letter from the lending bank. We confirm the current conditions with DLD before you commit.

Do you only recommend off-plan?

No. Off-plan made up most Dubai purchases in 2026, but the brief decides. Income mandates usually start with ready, tenanted units. Growth mandates may include off-plan.

How are off-plan payments protected?

Dubai law requires developers to take buyers' payments for off-plan units into a project escrow account. We check the escrow details on the sale documents before any payment.
