What costs come on top of the price?

The main one is the Dubai Land Department registration fee: 4% of the price, AED 74 800 for this lot. On a ready property the registration trustee fee of AED 4 200 is added. With a mortgage the bank charges for processing and valuation, and the mortgage is registered for a separate fee. I will send the full calculation for this lot on request.

Does buying this lot qualify for a UAE residence visa?

On price the lot clears the classic threshold for the two-year residence visa, AED 750 000. It is AED 130 000 short of the 10-year Golden Visa, granted from AED 2 000 000. The threshold is measured by the Dubai Land Department valuation, not the contract, and only freehold qualifies.
