Dear Mavericks,
If you’ve been reading the Capex Insider Newsletter for any length of time, you know that the Dubai property sector has been a good bet since the market collapsed during the convid fraud!
Well, in 2025, the market continues ripping! Why? you might ask!
You see, as the collective West continues to systematically dismantle their already fragile economies, places like Dubai head in the opposite direction, with policies that support the free man! Sure, the place ain’t perfect, but when you’ve got the choice between cold, wet London at 50%+ effective tax rate vs. warm and (ah-hem) sunny Dubai with tax-free personal income and generous business tax, people are flocking to the desert city.

Dubai’s population is projected to hit 4 million by 2026 on a strong inflow of expatriate professionals flocking to the emirate for better job opportunities and investors who want to cash in on high returns from the growing economy.

The Dubai real estate market has been attracting global investor interest in recent times with growing investments from several buyer demographics. However, the market is now experiencing a significant shift in investors with European buyers – particularly from Germany, France and the UK emerging as increasingly active players in Dubai’s property sector.
WHAT HAS ANY OF THIS GOT TO DO WITH MAVERICKS?
Well, you might remember that we held our inaugural event in Dubai in March 2024, in part because the Mavericks founders had a set of trusted connections in Dubai; including Real Estate property agents, immigration agents, and business advisory firms to name but a few.
So we’ve partnered up with Paul Sharland from Haus&Haus who have agreed to give Mavericks members a 25% discount on their agent fees.
Here’s the skinny!
A practical example…
Say you scout the market and ultimately decide to buy a 1-bedroom apartment in Business Bay (one of the booming parts of Dubai) for 2,000,000 AED, which works out to roughly USD $544,000.
Typically, you’d be paying between $10,890 to $32,000 in buyer commission for such transactions (or 2% to 6% of the property value).
But as a Maverick Member, you’re saving 25% on your commission. Assuming the lowest commission of 2%, you’ll get back 0.5%, or $2,700. On a 6% commission, you’re getting back $8,160! The savings on a +3 million AED property are obviously much higher, but you get the point.
If you’re interested in buying Dubai real estate, your Mavericks membership of $295 – — is already saving your pocket thousands.
BUT THERE’S SO MUCH MORE COMING!
This is just one of the many partnership perks we’re building without our network. We will soon announce gold and precious metals dealers, multiple real estate firms, lawyers, and others to name but a few AND we only started this in January; we expect to have dozens (maybe hundreds) of these types of member perks by the end of the year, where your Mavericks membership actually makes you money!
Because we are committed to making sure the value you get from your membership more than makes up for the modest membership fee we’re charging.
It is also the reason why the membership fee will soon increase.
If you remain an active member, you get to hear all about this, in real-time, during our regular interviews with our partners!
Here is the replay of the webinar with did with Paul from H&H recently, where he speaks at length about what’s driving the market, where to find pockets of value, what to buy for yield vs. growth, and where to buy and live.

P.S. After February 28th, 2025, only paid Mavericks members will have access to the members area, Mavericks Social, and other perks that come with the membership. If you haven’t settled your Mavericks membership for the coming year yet, you can do so here at $295/year.
Cheers,
Mavericks HQ
