Apart from the fundamental qualifications, conditions, and restrictions, here's everything you're supposed to know about UAE property visas. 

• The return on investment ought to correspond to the cost of ownership of the property, not its present-day market worth. For example, a 9 million AED property cannot be considered for a 10-year visa even if its current worth is 10 million AED or more.
• The sort of estate you decide to purchase is quite important, particularly when you are seeking a long-term visa. We suggest contacting the Dubai Land Department to find out if your property qualifies for a long-term visa, such as five or ten years. The rental property ought to remain of livable quality. 
• Premises that are under development, in disagreement, or are not entirely prepared will not be accepted for a property visa.
• Check to see whether the property has been declared dangerous by the government or authorities. 
• As previously stated, the real estate should be in a freehold area, with you as the legal owner. Leasehold ownership properties indicate that you are not the legitimate owner. In such circumstances, the applicant must state the length of the lease.
• Accommodations, serviced condominiums, villas, warehouses, townhouses, hotel rooms, and other real estate are permitted for UAE estate residence visas.
• Off-the-plan, leasing, and contested developments do not qualify for estate visas.
