I specialize in Off-Plan properties in Abu Dhabi.


There are two ways you can invest :


  1. Buy an off-plan unit on installments (during construction) and Mortgage upon handover

  2. Buy a Ready to move in Property and Mortgage it (Banks will cover upto 80% )



In a classic example in Reem Island, you can get :


Type: 1 bedroom 

Size: 850 sqft 

Age: 15-year-old Building 

Price: 1,300,000 AED

Rental income: 85,000 AED

Service Charge: 11,000 AED (13 AED/sqft annually)


How much do you pay after mortgaging it ??


Expats can get upto 75% Mortgage amount till the maximum age of 60 years (For UAE nationals its 65 years).


You will still need about 25% cash handy for the down payment.



Total Payment Upfront 


25% of Mortgage : 325,000 AED

Abu Dhabi municipality fee : 26,000 AED

Agency Fee ( Agent Commission) : 26,000 AED

Mortgage covered by Bank : 975,000 AED

Total Payment = 325,000 + 26,000 + 26,000= 377,000 AED.


You pay 377K AED upfront to buy this 1 bedroom.

Let's calculate Return on Investment (ROI )


Annual Rental Income: 85,000 AED

Annual Service Charge: 11,050 AED

Monthly Mortgage Payment on 4.5% Interest on 1,300,000 AED for 25 years: 5,420 AED/month

Annual Mortage Payment: 65,040 AED


Annual Earnings: 85,000 -11,050 -65,040 = 8,920 AED


Based on an average rent increase of 5% every year, the earnings start at 2% per year as per the calculations below....



2% Earning is based on the 377,000 AED Capital invested, it grows every year as rent increases!


After 25 years, earnings will be 73% plus per year, and you will fully own the Real Estate Asset.

Also important to note ***


The property value will have appreciated by 5.6 Mil in 30 years ( say 5% annual increase)

You make 4.31 Mil in Capital Appreciation upon selling... 

i.e. 332% ROI



Property investment is a long-term game, and it provides you with passive income for decades ... invest 377K AED today to start generating your passive income stream.
