Family offices
Dubai residential property advice for family offices
Family offices need more than listings. They need a written mandate, a clear audit trail, conflicts disclosed and reporting that fits their governance. We act on the buy side, the sell side or across a portfolio, and work alongside your lawyers, tax advisers and structurers.
- Written mandate and audit trail
- Conflicts disclosed in writing
- Works with your own advisers

| Conflicts of interest | Single-side representation; conflicts disclosed in writing | Often acts for both sides of the same deal |
| Fees | Fee model disclosed in writing before you sign anything | Headline rate, extras discovered later |

After you enquire
What happens next
- 01
A senior adviser reads it
Your request goes to a senior adviser on the right desk, not a call centre or an automated sequence.
- 02
A personal reply within one working day
By phone, WhatsApp or email, whichever you prefer. Tell us a good time and we will keep to it.
- 03
A clear plan, no obligation
You get our view and the next steps in plain terms. Whether to go ahead is entirely your decision.
Do you advise on commercial property?
Our focus is residential property. If a mandate includes other asset types, we will say so and suggest specialist advisers.
Can you act without disclosing who the buyer is?
Yes, until disclosure is required for the transfer and compliance checks.
Do you provide tax or structuring advice?
No. We work alongside your tax, legal and structuring advisers and provide the property information they need.
Can you report to our investment committee?
Yes. Recommendations, diligence and reporting can be prepared for committee review.
What compliance checks apply?
Identity and source-of-funds checks apply to every transaction, as required. We explain what is needed at the start.
How are fees agreed?
The fee structure is agreed in writing before the mandate starts.
