A curated Real Estate advisory in Ras Al Khaimah

From Capital to Exit – We Structure, Execute and Manage your Investment Abroad
Position Early. Structure Intelligently. Capture Ras Al Khaimah’s next growth cycle.

Our Identity.

OUD Properties is a boutique real estate advisory based in Ras Al Khaimah, founded by Spanish entrepreneurs with a strong background in business strategy and international ventures.
Our cross-cultural perspective connects international investors with the emerging opportunities of Ras Al Khaimah, translating local market dynamics into clear and strategic decisions.
Combining European business standards with trusted relationships across leading government-backed developers, our focus is simple: a complete, hands-off investment journey.

Our Approach.

At OUD, advisory comes before transaction.
We understand that behind every investment there is a person, a family, a strategy or a life transition, often across borders.
Our role is not to promote projects. It is to analyse cycles, to structure capital intelligently, protect downside risk and position assets for long-term performance throughout the process.
We simplify complexity, filter noise and translate market dynamics into clear, structured decisions.

We believe in long-term advisory relationships.
From initial capital allocation to exit strategy, we remain present.

01

Capital Strategy First

We begin by understanding your capital allocation, return expectations and holding horizon.

02

Selective Market Positioning

We engage only with developments that demonstrate long-term master planning coherence,developer track record, delivery credibility, financial integrity and alignment with regulatory frameworks.

03

Full Lifecycle Execution

From acquisition coordination and legal structuring to property management and tenant oversight – we manage the operational layer of your investment.

04

Enduring Value Perspective

Our advisory approach prioritises sustainable capital appreciation, rental stability and long-term market fundamentals over short-term momentum.

For International Investors: From capital to cash‑out, without ever worrying about tenants, maintenance or paperwork.

You define your goals. We handle everything else.

Two ways to invest
Option 1 – 100% remote
Everything online: acquisition, legal, financing, management, and sale. You never need to travel.
Option 2 – Visit Ras Al Khaimah
We arrange a guided trip through partner developers. Flights and accommodation are organised for you. If you buy, the full trip cost is deducted from the property price.

You choose the level of management
A – Investment only
We buy and hand over the keys or title deed. You decide what comes next.
B – Full property management
We lease, maintain, pay bills, handle tenants, and remit rental income to you regularly.
C – Investment + Management + future sale
We manage the asset for an agreed period, then sell it when you decide (or when a target price is met).



Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
1. Do I need to pay taxes in the UAE?
No. Ras Al Khaimah and the UAE have no personal income tax, no capital gains tax, and no annual property tax for individual investors.
2. Do I have to declare my UAE property or rental income in my home country?
Yes. Most countries require their tax residents to declare worldwide assets and income, even if no tax is due in the UAE. Always consult a local tax advisor.
3. What payment plans are available for off‑plan properties in RAK?
Ras Al Khaimah offers some of the most flexible structures: down payments as low as 5%, 70% on handover / 30% after completion, and post‑handover plans spreading payments over 3, 5 or more years – many of them interest‑free.
4. Can I pay with cryptocurrency?
Yes. Some developers in Ras Al Khaimah accept Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT and other major cryptocurrencies. The amount is converted at market rate at the time of payment. We can guide you through the process.
5. Can I buy off‑plan as a non‑resident?
Absolutely. Off‑plan properties are fully open to non‑resident investors.
6. Do I need a UAE bank account to buy or manage a property?
No. You can pay directly from your home bank account via international wire transfer. However, a non‑resident savings account in the UAE can make installment payments easier. We can guide you.
7. How can I finance my purchase?
Some UAE banks offer mortgages to non‑residents: typically 50–65% loan‑to‑value, minimum 25–35% down payment, and minimum annual income of AED 120,000. We can introduce you to trusted banks.
8. Can I incorporate a company in RAK to hold the property?
Yes, for example in RAKEZ. But this does not automatically exempt you from home country taxes. You must take professional cross‑border tax advice.
9. What is the Golden Visa and how can I get it?
Invest AED 2 million in real estate. You receive a 10‑year renewable residency with family sponsorship, no local sponsor, and a path to UAE tax residency. We can guide you through the application.
10. Can I sell my property before handover?
Yes. Most developers allow resale once you have completed 30–40% of the payment plan.
11. What happens if I choose the visit option?
We arrange a fully guided trip through our partner developers. They organise flights and accommodation. If you purchase a property, the full trip cost is deducted from the property price.
12. Is your service really hands‑free?
Yes. You tell us your goals, sign a mandate, and we handle everything – acquisition, due diligence, legal closing, property management, and eventual sale. You never need to worry about tenants, maintenance, or paperwork.
13. Off‑plan vs ready property – what’s the difference?
· Off‑plan: Buy during construction. Lower price, flexible payments (low down payment, instalments, sometimes post‑handover). Higher appreciation potential, but no rental income until completion.
· Ready property: Already built. Immediate rental income, lower risk, but less payment flexibility (mortgage or full payment within 30–60 days).
We help you choose based on your goals.

Behind OUD.

María Bonet
Founder & Managing Director

María founded OUD Properties with the ambition of bringing a more thoughtful and human approach to real estate advisory in Ras Al Khaimah.
Having worked within the operational side of the real estate industry, she experienced first-hand how quickly the human dimension of the client relationship can be lost in fast-moving markets.
That experience shaped the philosophy behind OUD, ensuring that every decision aligns not only with financial objectives, but with personal vision and long-term confidence.

We believe success isn’t about volume, but alignment. Not speed, but clarity.
And above all, relationships built on trust.


Why OUD.

Oud is one of the most valued elements in Middle Eastern culture. Rare by nature, it evolves slowly and deepens with time.
We chose the name OUD not as ornament, but as principle.
OUD reflects a philosophy of distinction.
Just as oud holds a singular place in the region’s cultural heritage, we believe Ras Al Khaimah stands apart within the Emirates — defined by its character, its landscape and its long-term potential.
Our approach follows the same principles: careful selection, long-term perspective and quiet confidence in enduring value.
In this sense, OUD is not simply a name.
It is a standard
. So does our service for global investors: rare, valuable, and built to last.
