Off-Plan vs. Ready Property in Dubai: Which Is the Better Investment?
Off-plan property is paid for under a developer payment plan, such as 60/40 or post-handover, with payments held in a RERA-regulated escrow account. It needs less upfront capital but earns no rental income until handover, often 2–4 years. Ready property earns rent immediately and is easier to finance, so it suits cash-flow goals.
