    18. How is "Real Property" defined in Dubai law?

    Ali Faizan Syed1 min read0 viewsUpdated 1/2/2026
    Real Property is defined as land and any fixed structures constructed on it that cannot be moved without damage or alteration to its structure. This includes immovable assets like buildings, villas, and apartments. The definition is central to all real estate legislation, as it determines which assets must be registered with the DLD, which are subject to mortgages, and which fall under the jurisdiction of rental laws or jointly owned property regulations.
