Off-plan, luxury and secondary property lead generation for Dubai brokerages and developers. We don't sell form fills by the hundred. We build the campaign, the qualifying layer and the follow-up so your agents spend their day on people who actually show up.
₹50Cr+ / US$6M+ ad spend managed · 280+ brands since 2020 · Luxury property track record: HOABL One Global 5.8x ROAS · A residential launch at ₹14,800 per booked site visit
Almost every brokerage we speak to has the same complaint, and it isn't really a lead problem. They're getting leads. What they're not getting is people who pick up.
Three things cause it, and only one of them is the ad.
The enquiry sits too long. Dubai is one of the most contested property markets anywhere. A buyer filling in an instant form at 9pm is usually filling in three of them. If your agent calls at 11am the next morning, two other brokers have already spoken to that person and the conversation you're having is a comparison, not a first impression.
The ad qualified nobody. "Register your interest" collects everyone: browsers, agents scouting the competition, people six years from buying. Volume looks wonderful in the report and terrible on the phone.
The creative sold a building, not a decision. Renders look identical across every developer's campaign. What separates them is the payment plan, the handover, the yield story and the visa threshold — and those are what an actual buyer is weighing.
A brokerage paying for leads and measuring leads will always be sold more leads. The number that decides whether the month worked is how many people walked into a viewing.
These three get used interchangeably in pitches, and the gap between them is where most property ad budgets quietly disappear. Here's how we separate them before a campaign goes live.
| Stage | What it means | What it's worth to you |
|---|---|---|
| Lead | A name and a number. No budget signal, no timeline, no confirmation the person is even in market. | Close to nothing on its own. This is the number most agencies report. |
| Qualified lead | Budget band, purchase intent (end-use or investment), timeline, and whether they're already working with a broker. | Worth a call. Roughly the point where your agent's time stops being wasted. |
| Booked viewing | A confirmed slot in the calendar, for a specific unit or sales centre, with a reminder sequence behind it. | The only stage that correlates with a closing. This is what we report on. |
We'll still send you every lead. But the campaign gets optimised toward the third row, and the scorecard we agree before launch is written in that column.
This is the part most agencies skip, and it's why off-plan leads have such a bad reputation. The buyer isn't choosing a home. They're choosing a contract with a handover date attached.
| Line item | Off-plan | Ready / secondary |
|---|---|---|
| What the ad has to sell | Payment plan, handover date, developer track record, projected yield, visa threshold | The unit itself — view, layout, community, move-in date |
| Creative that works | Plan breakdowns, construction progress, developer credibility, comparison against renting | Walkthrough video, real photography, the neighbourhood, the balcony view |
| Qualifying question that matters | Cash or mortgage, and how far out the buyer is willing to wait | Move-in timeline and whether they're already viewing elsewhere |
| Typical objection | “What if it doesn't get delivered?” | “What else can I get for this?” |
| Follow-up shape | Longer, education-led, several touches before a sales-centre visit | Short. Book the viewing or lose them this week |
Run one campaign for both and you get the worst of each: off-plan buyers who wanted to see a finished unit, and ready-property buyers confused by a payment plan.
We haven't run property campaigns inside Dubai. We'd rather tell you that on the page than let you find out on the call.
What we have run is Indian luxury property, and the numbers are real ones from our own accounts. HOABL One Global in Goa returned 5.8x ROAS on high-net-worth inventory. On a separate residential launch we brought the cost of a booked site visit down to ₹14,800 — not a form fill, a person who physically turned up.
Here's our honest read on what carries over and what doesn't.
Selling something the buyer can't walk through. Qualifying high-ticket enquiries before an agent's time is spent. Speed-to-lead systems. Creative testing at volume. Reporting on visits instead of leads.
Dubai payment-plan norms, Golden Visa thresholds, RERA and DLD rules, which communities are moving this quarter, developer reputations, and how your commission structure shapes what a good lead even is.
That second column is a two-week onboarding conversation with your sales team, not a research project. If you'd rather hire someone who has already sold in Dubai for ten years, that's a completely reasonable call and we won't try to talk you out of it.
Dubai and Abu Dhabi brokerages with agents who can work a lead properly. Developers marketing off-plan launches. Indian and UK developers selling into Gulf buyers. Teams already spending on property ads and unhappy with what lands.
Anyone who wants a bulk lead list sold by the hundred. Brokerages with nobody free to call inside the hour — we'd be filling a bucket with a hole in it. Single agents testing property advertising for the first time with no CRM and no follow-up process.
The middle case is worth naming too. If your agents are strong but your follow-up is manual, the speed-to-lead wiring alone will change your numbers before we touch the ad spend. We'll tell you if that's where your problem actually is.
It moves with the inventory, not with the agency. A studio in a mid-market community and a AED 12 million villa on Palm Jumeirah pull completely different audiences at completely different costs, and any agency quoting you a flat cost-per-lead before seeing your inventory is guessing. What we do commit to is the metric: we report cost per booked viewing, not cost per form fill, and the campaign is scoped and quoted on a call once we've seen what you're selling.
Not in Dubai itself — and we'd rather say that than pretend. Our luxury-property work is Indian: HOABL One Global in Goa at 5.8x ROAS on high-net-worth inventory, and a residential launch where we brought the cost of a booked site visit down to ₹14,800. The buying psychology of someone spending crores on an off-plan unit they can't walk through is the part that transfers. Dubai's payment plans, Golden Visa thresholds and RERA rules are the part we learn from your team in week one.
Off-plan is the harder and more interesting one, so yes. Ready property sells on what the buyer can see; off-plan sells on payment plan, handover date, developer track record and resale story. That changes the creative, the qualifying questions and the follow-up cadence completely. Most agencies run the same campaign for both, which is exactly why off-plan leads feel so much worse than ready-property leads.
The lead should hit your agent's phone in under a minute, not sit in a spreadsheet. We wire the form or instant-form straight into WhatsApp and your CRM, because a Dubai property enquiry that waits an hour has usually already spoken to three other brokers. Speed-to-lead is the single cheapest improvement most brokerages can make, and it costs nothing in ad spend.
Yes, both. Campaigns run inside your Meta Business Manager and your ad account, the pixel and Conversions API sit on your domain, and every lead lands in your CRM first. If we stop working together you keep the account, the audiences, the creative and the data. We don't hold anything hostage, and you shouldn't work with anyone who does.
The written guarantee is built for revenue-attributable campaigns where a sale is tracked end to end. Property doesn't work that way — a Dubai unit closes weeks later, offline, through your sales team, so no honest agency can attribute it inside the ad platform. For property we hold ourselves to a booked-viewing target agreed before launch instead, and that target is written down.
Tell us what you're selling and what you're spending now. You get a written plan back — qualifying layer, creative angles and a booked-viewing target — before anything is committed.
Twenty minutes to look at your inventory, your current cost per lead and where the follow-up is leaking. You'll leave with a booked-viewing target whether or not you work with us.
