What to buy and what to skip.

We're Oday & Yasmeen. We put our own money into Dubai and Abu Dhabi property first, and then we show investors the real numbers behind the deals we would buy and the ones we would skip.

Most agents help you buy a property. We help you build a property portfolio.

We don't start with what to buy. We start with how you'll get out. Before we recommend anything, we compare the options on the numbers: the price against similar ready homes, the supply that is coming, and where the government is putting money.

“We only recommend what we would let our own parents buy.”
What We Do

Three things we know well.

Focus 1

Meydan Villas

We track real sale prices in Meydan: which villas resell and which sit unsold. You see the numbers before you make an offer.

Focus 2

Offplan

A good off-plan deal is priced below ready homes nearby, not just below the launch price. Most launches today don't pass that test.
