Your Home Buying Journey with Baywood
A clear, step-by-step process designed to make buying your first home smooth and stress-free
Understanding What You Need
We start by listening. In a relaxed, no-pressure conversation, we'll understand your lifestyle, budget, timeline, and what "home" means to you. Are you looking for a family-friendly community near schools? A modern apartment close to work? We'll help you clarify your priorities.
- Budget assessment and financing pre-qualification guidance
- Lifestyle needs discussion (commute, schools, amenities)
- Timeline planning based on your move-in needs
- Expectation setting about the market and process
Finding the Right Communities
We don't show you 50 properties. We do the filtering for you. Based on your criteria, we research neighborhoods, analyze commute times, check school ratings, and investigate community facilities. Then we create a curated shortlist of 8-12 properties worth seeing.
- Detailed neighborhood profiles (safety, schools, transport)
- Comparative cost-of-living analysis by area
- Property availability scan across all channels
- Hidden gem discovery (off-market opportunities)
Seeing Your Options in Person
We coordinate all viewings at your convenience — weekday evenings, weekends, whatever works. During viewings, we point out things you might miss: build quality, natural light, noise levels, potential maintenance issues. We're your second set of eyes.
- Scheduled viewings with flexible timing
- Professional assessment of property condition
- Community walk-through (check amenities, parking, atmosphere)
- Honest pros & cons discussion for each property
Making Sure Everything Checks Out
Before you make an offer, we verify everything. We check title deeds, review developer history (if off-plan), investigate service charges, and arrange professional inspections if needed. We want you to go in with eyes wide open.
- Title deed verification and ownership history
- Service charge review and HOA investigation
- Developer reputation check (for new properties)
- Property inspection coordination (if applicable)
- Legal document review with our partners
Getting the Best Deal
This is where our experience pays off. We research comparable sales, analyze market conditions, and negotiate on your behalf. Our goal is to secure the property at a fair price with favorable terms. On average, we save our buyers 3-5% through effective negotiation.
- Comparative market analysis (what similar units sold for)
- Strategic offer structuring and timing
- Professional negotiation with seller/developer
- Payment plan optimization (for off-plan properties)
- Payment plan optimization (for off-plan properties)

- Mortgage application support and bank coordination
- Document preparation and verification
- Sales contract review and signing coordination
- Payment schedule setup and tracking

Frequently Asked Questions
We've answered the most common questions from first-time buyers
For UAE nationals, the minimum down payment is 15% for properties under AED 5M. For expatriates, it's 25% for properties under AED 5M, and 35% for properties over AED 5M. However, we recommend having at least 30% saved to cover down payment plus closing costs and have an emergency reserve.
Yes! Most banks in Dubai offer mortgages to expats. You'll need a minimum salary (usually AED 15,000-20,000/month), employment letter, bank statements, and valid residency visa. We work with mortgage advisors who can pre-qualify you and find the best rates from multiple banks.
Beyond your mortgage, you'll pay: service charges (maintenance, security, amenities - typically AED 10-25 per sqft annually), utilities (DEWA - electricity, water, cooling), home insurance, and a one-time annual municipality fee. We provide a complete breakdown during our consultation.
It depends on your timeline and risk tolerance. Off-plan offers lower prices and flexible payment plans, but comes with construction risk and waiting time. Ready properties let you move in immediately but cost more upfront. We'll help you evaluate both options based on your specific situation.
For ready properties with mortgage pre-approval, the process typically takes 4-6 weeks from offer to keys. If you need mortgage approval, add another 2-3 weeks. Off-plan purchases complete when the building is finished (usually 1-3 years). We'll give you a detailed timeline based on your specific purchase.
You can sell anytime. The buyer will pay off your remaining mortgage as part of the purchase. You'll owe an early settlement fee to the bank (usually 1-2% of remaining balance), but you'll keep any equity you've built up. We help clients with both buying and selling.
