Buy property in Dubai from AED 15M to 30M
From AED 15M to 30M you enter Dubai's upper-prime market: waterfront and golf-course villas, branded and beachfront apartments, and larger family homes in communities such as Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Hills Estate, Jumeirah Islands, Tilal Al Ghaf and Emaar Beachfront.
What you can buy from AED 15M to 30M
This is the entry to prime Dubai. Your options include established villas on Palm Jumeirah, larger custom and golf-course villas in Dubai Hills Estate and Jumeirah Golf Estates, waterfront villas in Jumeirah Islands, and high-floor branded and beachfront apartments.
Buyers here are typically trading up to a trophy lifestyle asset or placing significant capital into a scarce, well-located home. Quality of address, view and finish matter as much as size.
Which communities and property types fit
For beachfront living, Palm Jumeirah and Emaar Beachfront lead the choice. For golf and family villas, Dubai Hills Estate, Jumeirah Islands and Tilal Al Ghaf offer space, security and mature communities.
Toward AED 30M you reach the better fronds and plots on the Palm and larger custom villas, which sets up the step into the trophy tier above AED 30M.

What it costs to buy, at any budget
Beyond the price, budget roughly 6 to 8 percent of the property value in one-off costs. This is led by the 4 percent Dubai Land Department transfer fee, plus agency commission (typically 2 percent plus 5 percent VAT) and registration and conveyancing charges.
Dubai has no annual property tax and no capital gains tax on a sale. In the emirate's designated freehold areas, foreign nationals can own apartments, townhouses and villas outright, with no residency requirement. A property valued at AED 2M or more can also support a 10-year Golden Visa application.
