Property investment | 03.10.2025 | Leanne Ruscoe

Dubai, Abu Dhabi & Ras Al Khaimah; secure your future in a tax-free market.

The UAE ranks as one of the top places in the world for property investment. With zero income tax, no capital gains tax and no inheritance tax, investors get to enjoy a safe market and earn rental yields up to 10% in key areas, whereas short term lets can bring in as much as 15%.

Right from Dubai’s iconic skyline to Abu Dhabi’s strong economy and Ras AI Khaimah’s emerging opportunities, real estate in the UAE provides a mix of solid financial results and a growth-focused market. Rental returns add to the attraction too, with long term rentals and a luxurious lifestyle.
