A confidential consultation to define objective, budget and timeline.
Practice 01
Invest in Dubai & UAE
Residential, commercial and off-plan real estate, hospitality, stakes in UAE companies, joint ventures and sector opportunities.
Our approach is advisory: we identify opportunities, prepare files, arrange introductions and coordinate every step — never promising guaranteed outcomes, because seriousness shows in method. Think of us as your business advisor in Dubai: on your side of the table, with a Gulf network behind us.
That is the job of a UAE Africa advisor: turning interest in Dubai into concrete investments — the very essence of Africa Invest.

Frequently asked questions
Your questions about this practice
Do I need UAE residency to invest in Dubai?
No. Dubai property is open to non-residents in freehold zones, and taking a stake in a UAE company is possible from abroad. Residency becomes useful for day-to-day management and banking — a property investment can moreover give access to it. We tell you precisely what applies to your situation.
How do I get started?
With a confidential consultation — by video call or in Dubai. You set out your objective; we tell you frankly what is realistic, in what order, and on what budget. You then decide, with no commitment.
What are your fees?
Every engagement is quoted after the initial consultation, because scope varies widely by country, sector and objective. The quote is written and itemised, and nothing starts before your approval.
