Property
lawyers in Dubai readily provide help to clients facing problems with residential and
commercial real estate transactions. Rentals for commercial properties continue
to be in demand as the preferred arrangement for business accommodations in the
Emirates. Due to the high volume of transactions, the UAE government has
implemented measures to regulate tenant-landlord relationships. Unfortunately,
litigation can still arise.
Real estate
litigation is a tool used by, and against, buyers and sellers, landlords and
tenants, and real estate brokers and agents. It can happen to just about
anyone; whether one is buying a home or renting a commercial space, each
transaction has the potential to end in a lawsuit. Thus, it would be best if
you had an experienced property attorney who understands the real estate laws in Dubai
to help you make informed choices and avoid litigation.
Here are the three most common
causes for real estate litigation according to legal firms in Dubai:
1. Failure to disclose a defect on the
property
Real estate
renters or buyers are expected to do their due diligence in inspecting a
property they want to rent or purchase. But there are also certain disclosure
requirements. Landlords are obligated to disclose defects in a property such as
a mold problem, leaks, poor construction, non-permitted additions, and more. If
renting or buying a party can prove that the seller or agent is aware of the
defect and fails to disclose it before closing, it can be grounds for a
lawsuit.
2. Breach of contract
In every real
estate transaction, the terms and conditions associated with the sale are
disclosed in the contract. It covers the details related to title clearance,
assets included in the transaction (appliances, furniture, etc.), closing date,
financing, and more. Failing to comply with the terms outlined in the agreement
can be grounds for litigation. For claims of breach of contract, the wronged
party must prove that they have fulfilled their contractual obligations while
the other party has not. The wronged party may demand compensation for any
losses incurred as a result of the breach.
