Freehold or leasehold?
If you are planning to invest, you can buy a leasehold or freehold property in the Gulf countries. Since the last few years, foreign investors are now allowed to purchase property in the gulf countries in specifically designated places.
However, in other areas, you are not allowed to make a purchase, and what you can do is only lease for certain periods.

Before you set out to buy real estate in gulf countries, you must have a clear goal. If you are looking for a real estate property for personal use, you need to consider factors like nearby workplaces, hospitals, schools, and any other modern amenities.
Know your family’s requirements for narrowing down the selection of perfect residences. But if your purpose is an investment, consider factors like ROI (Return on Investment), capital growth, and high rental value every year.
Developer and location:
You know beforehand where you want to own real estate property. Take into consideration your objective, budget, and the type of community in which you want to settle.
Then, you will have to research the developer and check their professionalism and credibility by looking at a proven track record of maintaining and building a great community. Craft your questions from the viewpoint of both the tenant and the landlord.
Look for a reliable real estate property and broker team:
