A Landlord’s Checklist Before Renting Out a Dubai Property

A little preparation helps you let your property faster, at a better rent, and with fewer issues later.

1. Price it right. Compare current rents for similar units in your community.
2. Fix and refresh. Repair defects, service the air conditioning and repaint where needed.
3. Deep clean and pest control before photos and viewings.
4. Take professional photos and write an accurate, detailed listing.
5. Screen tenants carefully and confirm their documents.
6. Use a clear tenancy contract and register it with Ejari.
7. Record the condition at check-in with a dated inspection report.
8. Plan maintenance with an annual maintenance contract.
