Property Management Dubai Hills Estate, From an Owner-Operator

It depends on your street or building, its owners association and the master developer, as well as the DET holiday home permit. I check the NOC and the permit position first, before you spend anything on furnishing or fees. Here's how the DET holiday home permit works.

They behave differently, so I don't rank them. A villa suits larger groups and longer family stays, and brings more cleaning and upkeep. An apartment is easier to turn around and has more comparable listings to price against. I compare your actual property against live listings and show you the net for each option you're weighing.

Short-term stays run in high season, and when nightly demand drops I move the unit to mid-term stays so the calendar doesn't sit empty. A family community with space and parks suits that kind of longer booking. Here's how I price the summer low season.

No. I own apartments in Dubai Marina and Business Bay, and I don't quote personal results from areas I don't own in. For Dubai Hills Estate I show you comparable listings and the net before you commit.

More than an apartment, because there are more bedrooms, more living space and often an outdoor area to set up. The cost depends on how many guests it needs to sleep and what's already in the house. Furnish only after the NOC and permit position is confirmed. Here's the furnishing and setup cost guide.

One commission on what your property actually earns, given to you in writing before you sign. There are no hidden charges and no cleaning markups. Here's what a management fee actually covers.

You can leave with 30 days' notice and no exit penalties. Every booking and payout is visible in your owner dashboard, so you can see how it's doing without asking me.

Yes, after the tenancy ends. The property must be vacant and in your name before a holiday home permit is issued, so I start onboarding a few weeks early and plan around the end date. Here's why long leases trap owners.

You do, as the owner: DEWA, district cooling where your property has it, internet and the service charge. The Tourism Dirham is charged nightly. See the DEWA setup costs.

On most 2 to 5+ bedroom apartments I take on, I expect 17–26% more than a long lease across a year. That is an apartment figure from the units I manage elsewhere, and I don't apply it to villas, which I price from comparable villa listings. Either way I show you the net for your specific unit first.
