I used a really helpful agent to get my villa in Mirdif this week. What impressed me about him was his reliability and his honesty in what he was telling me. I dealt with some shockers recently who were either uncontactable, hours late or said on thing one day and another the next. This guy covers a far wider area that just Mirdif, he was talking about Jumeirah etc to my husband. I really can't recommend him enough he is called Tahseen Ibrahim and he is the managing director of his own company called Sandcastles Properties, he is based in suite 502 al Murad Tower in Al Barsha 1. Call him on 55 3207008 or office 4 369 5091. It is a new company he is setting up and I think because of that this is why he is working so hard to make a good name for himself....which wouldn't be hard here!!!! Good luck with it. Totally agee regarding Tahseen, he's a good one to use for Mirdif!

We know about the proof of ownership thing now this has all happened. The thing is you put yourself in our position: we moved to Dubai last January, and 5 people at my husbands workplace were renting from this 'company' and they all highly recommended him. We had only been here a month a didn't know how it all worked, so didn't know any different. We rented with him for 12 months in one of 'his' other apartments with no issues, then we moved to this place and signed up for another 12 months. People may see this and think we've been silly but he had real forged documents. Even the bank didn't pick up on it when we applied for our rent loan. Now we have been in Dubai for 18 months we know how it all works and will hopefully never end up in this situation again. edited by NoodleT on 02/09/2012 Not saying you are silly. Just giving advise so hopefully other new people won't fall into the same trap.

You always need to ask for the proof of ownership or title deed when you rent a property. The name on this document, as well as on the passport (or Trade license if it's a company) should be the same as the one on the contract and also should be the one you are making the payments to. If any of them are different, there could be something dodgy going on. If you are asked to make payments to someone different, they will need to produce an official document issued by the Dubai court that states that the owner of the property authorises the payments to be issued to someone else.
