One of my Tyumen acquaintances, who occasionally called in to warm up in the sunny Emirates, knew firsthand what excellent living conditions this country offers to well-off foreigners. He knew about the fast-growing economy of Dubai and its absolute security. He also knew that the Emirates is a paradise not only weather, but also tax. I saw what luxurious housing is being built here. Finally, after weighing the pros and cons, he decided to invest a certain amount in something useful - and rightly chose real estate as an investment option. “After all, all people want to live normally, in a stable and comfortable atmosphere. And they’re tired of staying in hotels all the time,” my friend used to give various arguments, calling on the phone asking him to find a suitable real estate agency in Dubai.
I, in turn, was only glad of the unexpected opportunity to conduct an experiment to find the best of the best and help an always busy businessman from Russia find a gold mine. In order to protect myself from the incompetence of firms that only call themselves "realtor" (although this is practically impossible in Dubai), I had to get complete information about the agency whose services we were going to turn to.
I began my first day of searching by looking at the real estate section of the most popular daily newspaper in the Emirates, Gulf News. They should be guided by a large company, preferably with a Russian-speaking agent. By phoning several selected companies, I managed to contact Rustar Real Estate, whose founders have been on the Dubai market for 12 years. From friends I already heard positive reviews about the owners of the company and the services provided by the company. In addition, the company has highly professional Russian-speaking employees.
The company has a solid capital that allows you to invest in Dubai real estate. Rustar Real Estate owns about 400 housing units. For each piece of property there is a special document issued by the developer and guaranteeing the impossibility, for example, of double selling one apartment. These arguments prompted me to choose Rustar.
They answered my phone call immediately and politely offered to go to the company office for a detailed and detailed conversation. I had to trick and say that I was in Dubai on a tourist package, I don’t know where to go and I want to immediately start choosing my dream apartment without wasting time. What was my surprise when I was immediately offered to take a tour of residential facilities in the transport company Rustar, accompanied by a professional Russian-speaking real estate consultant. I did not want to refuse such a service, and we agreed to meet in the lobby of one of the Dubai hotels.
Arriving at the appointed time, I myself noted the punctuality and polite manners of the agent, and we set off on a journey to inspect the beauties of Dubai. The tasks before us were grandiose, because my Tyumen acquaintance had not yet decided on the choice of type of housing.
Where they just didn’t take me and what they just didn’t show me — luxury villas, exclusive penthouses, and cozy apartments; all the way to your own island. With detailed comments and very relevant comments on each project, a professional consultant was able to put so much useful information into me that it seemed now that I have a complete picture of real estate in Dubai. When the question finally reached the prices to be guided by, I had to open the cards and admit that all this was necessary for my friend, who would soon come to the Emirates and examine everything himself.
And then everything went like clockwork. Rustar Real Estate company booked airline tickets, a hotel for the businessman, granted a visa to the UAE and arranged transportation for the city. On the very first day, the Siberian guest who thawed under the rays of the southern sun selected magnificent apartments, consulted with a company lawyer on issues of visa, inheritance, possible credit, and at the same time discussed the possibilities of doing business in the Free Economic Zones of Dubai.
Rustar Real Estate took upon itself the responsibility of finding a suitable housing option, provided documentary support for the transaction with further tracking of the correct and timely execution of all documents in the necessary instances. The contract for the purchase of real estate was drawn up in a matter of hours, all legal and financial issues were resolved without leaving the agency. A profitable investment was solemnly celebrated by sea fishing, organized by Rustar Real Estate.
What conclusions could be drawn from the results of the experiment?
Having found a reliable, qualified real estate company like Rustar, you save a lot of your personal time, because an authorized company will provide a full range of services and will carry out all the painstaking work for you. And most importantly - you will feel comfortable as a client, receiving excellent housing in a prosperous Dubai and at the same time investing in a highly profitable project.
