WHY DUBAI

A market built for international investors

Dubai's freehold market was designed from the outset to welcome foreign capital — open ownership, no local income tax, and a large, liquid pool of international buyers and tenants. That combination is a big part of why the net yield on the Una studio works the way it does.

Open to international buyers
Freehold zones — Town Square, JVC, Dubai South and others — allow 100% foreign ownership, any nationality, no local partner or residency required to buy.
0% tax on rental income
The UAE levies no personal income tax, so rental income is not taxed locally. Your home country's own rules may still apply — see our France ↔ UAE tax note below.
No capital gains tax
Individual property sales in the UAE are not subject to capital gains tax, unlike most European markets — what you sell for is what you keep.
No inheritance tax
The UAE does not levy inheritance or estate tax on real estate. We recommend registering a DIFC will so the property passes exactly as you intend.
