Dubai property investment does not require paying the full price upfront. With flexible, developer-backed payment plans, you can secure a property with as little as a 10% down payment and spread the remaining balance through manageable instalments during construction and after handover. This approach reduces initial risk, improves cash flow, and allows investors to lock in today’s price while benefiting from potential capital growth before completion.
Off-plan real estate means purchasing a property before construction is completed, directly from a developer. In Dubai and the wider UAE, this is one of the most common and accessible ways for first-time international investors to enter the market.
Buyers typically secure an off-plan property at an early stage, often at a lower price than comparable completed homes, with payments spread over time rather than paid upfront.
Dubai offers a lifestyle like no other, with world-class amenities, thriving communities, and unparalleled opportunities for growth. Whether you’re a first-time buyer, an investor, or looking for your forever home, Jones & Redfearn Dubai is your trusted partner in finding a property that perfectly complements your aspirations.
Early-stage pricing is typically below the value of completed properties in the same area.
Payments are spread across the construction period — and sometimes beyond handover — reducing the need for large upfront capital.
Value often increases as construction progresses and the surrounding area develops.
New, modern homes in well-located communities attract strong tenant and short-term rental demand.
