Buying an apartment in Dubai

Pros:

  1. Security is better. Usually, visitors cannot enter without signing in at security or being accompanied by a resident. 
  2. Municipal services like electricity, water or gas are easier as these are supplied by the building. That means bill payments are less hassle and you can be sure that you won’t run out.
  3. The real estate owner is responsible for the upkeep of the building. If there’s a park where families can play, it’s also the responsibility of the owner to take care of its maintenance.
  4. Most buildings have a gym, swimming pool and/or sauna which are free for residents.
  5. Most apartment buildings have convenience stores either in the building or within a short walking distance.

  4. Upgrades or maintenance to your apartment would require approval from your building’s management first. These enhancements would also need to be carried out within specific hours on certain days.

Buying a villa in Dubai 

Pros

  1. With a villa, you have more freedom to expand, upgrade and design your home.
  2. You can have your own garden, which adds outdoor space to your home and lets you enjoy time in the fresh air. A garden can be made private with fencing/walls; and if it’s big enough, you could even include a pool if there isn’t one already.
  3. A villa is for longer-term living – you’re likely to find you have space to grow in your home, start a family and raise your children there.

Cons

  1. With more freedom, comes increased responsibility – and costs for utilities, upkeep etc. 
  2. You might find the need to install security devices for your peace of mind – which also cost.
  3. You’ll need to manage your own water, electricity and gas.
  4. You’ll need to pay for extra facilities and services like gym memberships, trips to the spa, etc.
  5. Chances are your villa will be located outside the city centre, meaning you’ll need to consider your commute to work.
