That sounds like a good deal 704k for a 1 bed in D block. Does the price include parking and what is the sq ft (please state if this includes the balcony).

To me this is a good deal on a 30/70 contract.

Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for your reply mate, the total size is around 680sf which does include the balcony as well, the property is without parking but i believe it is for 45K extra, what have you got, i know the size is not great but just for an investment with quick appreciation, cheers thanks for your reply?

I want to re-sale before the other 50% is due Q1 2009, unless there are further increases and the rent return is good as 8% rental return is not enough plus I may then want to invest in waterfront Dubai or Ajman. It costs me that much PA as I have to borrow money. Any thoughts!

Hi,
I believe the next price increase is june08 and it is 10% for sure, i bought in april08 before the increase, so with this one i would have made around £17,000 profit, completion is dec09 so plenty of quick appreciation, i am keen to...
Thanks Rishi

As UK investor I will end dealing with spain as well as RAK. Also there is no escrow account bt they assured me that I will be buying off khoie and Rakeen both part of the government and therefore my investment is safe. they only get my £2000 deposit the rest go into Abu Dubai bank.they have quoted 881 aed psf and 30, 20, 50 or 20, 20, 60 payment plan as well as 50:50 plan. Please advice about this company and prices. thanks

guys, i was wondering if anyone could help or give me some advice - as you know im relatively new to all of this and LHB is my first purchase.....

i was under the impression when i bought the studio that if there was delays for more than 6 months, than after the 6th month, Khoie would pay you 1% for every month it is late......

i just recieved my contract through yesterday in the post and saw that there was no clause - when i questioned this, i was told by Khoie that this is no longer in their contract.......

i was wondering on what the best course of action is, im on a 30,20,50 payment plan. i initial thoughts were to change them to 30,70?!? or what should i do? is this something important?

anyone else had the same issue? please advise and thanking you in advance

Hi Amit,
I got told by someone that there was something like that, but i was not expecting this in my contract, it depends how your finance is 30/20/50, i am on a 30/70, if you can change to that i would advise this to you as when it gets to december 09 there will be plenty of places where you can get finance from, i have bought a 1 bedroom in dolphin, its not sea view but to the rear, i paid 704,000 which is about 96k in pounds, its about 680sq ft, i went through dream homes and have an 8% rental option for the first year, let me know what you have and if i can advise you, just drop me a mail.

Take Care Rishi

Hi, are their UK investors here ie resident in the UK but investing overseas such as LHB, RAK, UAE. What is the situation with liability for UK taxes such as capital gains etc. also If you want your investment to remain in UAE you will have to open an account overseas in the UAE to keep your investment there. If you dont yet have residency visa then I think the only way you can open an account in the UAE whilst living in the UK is to open an account here in the UK with a bank such as HSBC who are also bassed in the UAE (wolrd's local bank!). What about protection etc for banking overseas. In the UK, you are protected upto £35000 if eg a bank goes bust. Are you aware of local UAE-wide banking legislation. The adavantage of having a UAE account is that you dont have to transfer money. My plan for now is to keep my investment in the UAE until I make a substantial capital and may then move to the UAE for living plus or minus working. What tax liabilities are there say if I bring back to the UK the original investment/capital and keep my gains in the UAE for further investment and growth. Regards
