What our clients say.
I had a fantastic experience working with Aneet. From start to finish, He was incredibly professional, knowledgeable, and proactive. He made the entire process seamless and stress-free. If you’re looking for any property to buy or rent he is the right person who truly advocates his clients and knows the market inside out, I highly recommend Aneet! Thank you so much
Sara HarbGoogle reviewI recently purchased my first property in Emaar South, and I had an excellent experience working with Altyn from Lavinia Properties. As a first-time buyer, I had many questions, but Altyn was extremely patient, knowledgeable, and honest throughout the entire process. She explained every clause of the sales agreement in detail, guided me step-by-step through the procedures, and was always available to take my calls and clarify my doubts. What impressed me most is that she has also been the trusted broker for the seller for the past five years, helping manage and rent the unit — which gave me great confidence in the transparency of the deal. Even after the transaction was completed, she went the extra mile to help me recover the tenancy security deposit from the seller. Overall, Altyn is a highly professional, sincere, and trustworthy broker, and I truly appreciate her support. I would strongly recommend her to anyone looking to buy property in Dubai.
Jobin MathewGoogle reviewI had a fantastic experience with Mr.Rumesh at Lavina Properties from start to finish, Their team was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly supportive. They took the time to understand my needs and guided me through every step of the buying process with clarity and patience. Their local expertise and personalized approach made all the difference. I highly recommend Lavinia Property to anyone looking to buy or sell a property. They truly exceeded my expectations.
Mohammad YakubGoogle reviewI have known Ranjan who has been an amazing person who has helped me over the years during my journey as an investor in Dubai RE since 2007. He is an honest, conscientious and diligent RE professional. I fully endorse his work ethics & recommend him for any help with RE investment.
Jyotsna GandhiGoogle reviewRanjan has been extremely helpful in all our real estate needs. He has been advising us very well on our requirements and provided the best service when we visit Dubai when it comes to real estate. Highly recommend him
Tharanga PereraGoogle reviewI had an exceptional experience working with Ranjan Thalagala from Lavinia Properties LLC, Dubai. From our first conversation to the final closing, Ranjan was professional, honest, and incredibly supportive throughout the entire process. He truly understands the Dubai real estate market and provided clear, accurate advice at every step. Ranjan was always available to answer questions, handled negotiations with skill, and made what could have been a stressful process feel smooth and manageable. It’s rare to find someone so dedicated and trustworthy in this industry. I highly recommend Ranjan Thalagala to anyone looking to buy, sell, or invest in property in Dubai. If you want results and a genuinely reliable advisor, he’s the one to work with.
Pandi GamageGoogle reviewI had an outstanding experience with Lavinia Properties, all thanks to Fares! From the very beginning, he was professional, knowledgeable, and incredibly patient, taking the time to understand exactly what I was looking for. Fares guided me through every step of the process, from property viewings to finalizing the deal, making it seamless and stress-free. His expertise and dedication truly set him apart, and I couldn’t be happier with the property he helped me secure.
Tracy KayGoogle reviewExcellent experience dealing with Aneet Foulds from start to finish. The whole rental process was stress-free and very well organised. He was informative, responsive, and took the time to understand my needs rather than simply showing available properties. His advice and flexibility made finding and renting the right apartment much easier. Highly recommended.
Maxim SychevskiyGoogle reviewI’m dealing with Mr Roshan for many years, he is very active, honest and follow up with me and the tenants every single matter. Honestly, he takes the pressure off my shoulders and at the same time he assists the tenants with the process of renting. I highly recommend dealing with him.

Investing in Dubai — the answers our clients ask most.
Can foreigners own property in Dubai?
Yes. Since 2002, foreign nationals can buy and own property outright in Dubai's designated freehold areas, with the title deed in their own name. We confirm a building sits in a freehold zone before you commit.
Do I need a visa or residency to buy?
No. You don't need a UAE visa or residency to purchase property in Dubai. Many of our clients buy from abroad; we handle viewings by video and arrange a Power of Attorney if you can't be here to sign.
Does buying property qualify me for a Golden Visa?
Property worth AED 2 million or more can qualify you for a 10-year Golden Visa, and purchases from AED 750,000 can qualify for a 2-year residency visa. The thresholds change over time, so we confirm the current position for your purchase.
Which areas do you cover?
We work across Dubai and the northern emirates — Dubai, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah and Umm Al Quwain — with our office in Dubai Investment Park.
Can I buy remotely from outside the UAE?
Yes. We run viewings over video, send everything to you in writing, and coordinate a Power of Attorney so the purchase can complete without you travelling.
Can non-residents get a mortgage?
Yes. Several UAE banks lend to non-residents, typically financing 40–50% of the property value with the rest as a down payment. We can introduce you to mortgage advisors to check what you'd qualify for.

Questions we're asked most.
Is my money protected if I buy off-plan?
Dubai law requires off-plan payments to go into an escrow account for the project, and developers can draw from it only as construction progresses. We check the project's RERA registration and escrow details before you pay anything.
What happens if handover is delayed?
Your Sales and Purchase Agreement sets the completion date and what happens if it slips. We read those clauses with you before you sign and keep track of construction progress for you.
Can I sell before the project is finished?
Usually, yes. Most developers allow resale once a set share of the price has been paid, often 30% to 40%, and charge a transfer fee. Terms vary by developer, so we check them for your unit.
Does an off-plan property qualify for the Golden Visa?
Property worth AED 2 million or more can qualify, including some off-plan purchases from approved developers. The rules have changed over time, so we check the current position for your unit before you commit.
Can I buy off-plan without living in the UAE?
Yes. Foreign buyers can purchase in Dubai's freehold areas without residency. We can handle viewings by video and coordinate a Power of Attorney if you can't be here to sign.
Not sure which launch fits your budget?
Tell us your budget and when you want the keys. We'll compare payment plans side by side and tell you which projects to skip.
