Go Back UAE Property Investment Forum Finance and Legal Solicitors / Legal advisors Dubious Real Estate Agents Can we Name and Shame
Solicitors / Legal advisors Even though the property ownership laws have never been clearly defined, investors have been snapping up properties in Dubai and Sharjah without any legal consultation. Contracts still remain very one-sided favouring the developers with no respite for the purchaser. Solicitor firms are now coming into the limelight with the market being dominated by some key players primarily due to overseas investor interest and caution. How do you think the solicitors should take this matter forward? Have you bought a property without a solicitor? What would you recommend to fellow investors? Share you valuable insight and knowledge with others.

Default Dubious Real Estate Agents Can we Name and Shame - 24-02-2007, 10:54 AM
Plenty of stories doing the rounds being ripped off in Dubai by Real estate Agents. Myself I paid a Lawyer money to chuck my Real Estate in the slammer for a couple of nights due to a fraudulent contract and broken promises.

They still have a glossy web presence and 1 page adds in the Gulf newspaper so I am sure others have been hooked.

Can I start a thread and you could make it a sticky so people can see who has taken advantage of us given that there are no consumer laws here in Dubai and one can write what that want to and not come up with the goods...

We do have to be careful not to be slanderous. However if you have had personal experience that you can share then please do start a new thread. It will be up to our Dubai moderator to judge it and decide if it is worth making sticky.

Welcome to the forum and I hope you do share and continue posting.
