The Dubai Landing Plan from AED 499

Get the move right the first time.

Land in the right Dubai neighbourhood, in the right home, near the right school — and avoid the kind of AED 20,000–100,000 mistake many newcomers make in their first year. The free quiz shows you where to look. The Landing Plan makes the decision real: DLD-backed rents and honest first-year numbers, the risks specific to you, and a move plan built from your own answers.

What a wrong move actually costs

Getting the area wrong in Dubai isn't a small annoyance — it's a five-figure problem. The most common ways people lose money in year one:

  • Overpaying rent in an area that looked cheaper than it lives
  • The chiller + service-charge bills nobody mentioned
  • Signing a lease then breaking it — a 1–2 month penalty
  • Missing the school, then moving again to be near the next one
  • A commute that's fine off-peak and brutal at 8am

The Landing Plan is built to help you avoid all five — and at AED 499against a potential five-figure mistake, it's one of the smallest costs in your whole move.

The VIP Landing
By application · We take on only a handful of fully-managed moves each month

Hand us the move. Arrive to a life that already works.

A handful of fully-managed relocations each month, run by a dedicated relocation lead. We take it from “we're moving to Dubai” to keys, school places and a furnished home — so you spend your energy on the job and the family, not on logistics. We accept this work by application to protect the depth of service; availability is genuinely limited.

AED 32,000+ of coordinated work, expertise and time — handled for from AED 15,000.

Complex, multi-family or executive moves are scoped individually — typically AED 25,000–50,000+.

Who it's for
  • Senior hires and executives relocating on a deadline
  • Families who need schools, home and visas solved at once
  • People moving from abroad with no time to fly in and view
  • Anyone who would rather buy back the weeks this takes
What's included
  • A dedicated relocation lead, end to end
  • A shortlist of areas and communities matched to your brief, with the building-vetting questions to ask
  • Introductions to licensed agents for viewings and the lease — we never broker the deal
  • School shortlist and applications coordinated
  • Ejari, DEWA, chiller, visas, Emirates ID and movers project-managed
  • Home setup — furniture, internet, the first-week essentials
  • 90 days of settling-in support after you land
What's excluded
  • Rent, deposits, school fees and government charges (paid by you, at cost)
  • Property purchase / mortgage brokering
  • Immigration legal advice beyond standard relocation visas
  • Ongoing household staff or PA services

Every VIP engagement starts with a scoping consultation. We'll only take it on if we're confident we can make the move materially better — and we'll tell you if the Landing Plan is all you need.

For employers & HR

Relocating a team to Dubai?

A consumer moves once; a company moves staff every quarter. We give HR and mobility teams a repeatable, neutral relocation package per employee — so people land well and tickets to HR drop.
