Tenanted sale, Dubai
Sell your Dubai property with the tenant in place

FAQ
Tenanted sale, Dubai: your questions answered
Can’t find what you’re looking for?Talk to our team.
Can I sell my Dubai property while it is tenanted?
Yes. The tenancy normally continues with the new owner on its existing terms. Your lawyer can confirm how this applies to your contract.
Can the new owner ask the tenant to leave?
Only in the circumstances and with the notice Dubai’s tenancy rules allow. We do not promise a buyer vacant possession unless it is legally secure, and we suggest you take legal advice on any notice.
Will a tenant reduce my sale price?
It depends on the buyer. Investors may value the income, while buyers who want to live there may pay more for a vacant home. We compare both for your unit.
What happens to the security deposit?
It is usually transferred to the buyer or adjusted at completion so the tenant’s deposit stays protected. We set this out in the sale terms.
What if my tenant will not allow viewings?
We agree viewing windows with notice and explain the benefits of cooperation. If access remains difficult, we can market on detailed photos and a video first.
I live abroad. Can you handle everything?
Yes. We coordinate the tenant, buyer and transfer and keep you updated in writing.
Is the sale plan free?
Yes. The valuation and sale options are free with no obligation.
