Complete Guide to Building on Government Grant Land in the UAE
Grant land is an opportunity — managing construction is the challenge. Al Roqi specializes in helping citizens build their villas on grant land. Our current focus is Dubai, we welcome projects across the other Emirates, and we know the requirements of every housing program.
The First Steps
Issuing the land map, soil testing, final design, obtaining the building permit, choosing a trusted project management party, then starting. Every step has requirements — and an error in any of them stalls the project.
The Four Challenges
Difficulty dealing with the municipality, contractors exceeding the budget, difficulty coordinating with housing programs for payment disbursement, costly changes after starting. Al Roqi solves all these challenges with field experience.
Housing Programs and Payment Disbursement
We deal with all programs: Sheikh Zayed, Mohammed bin Rashid, Sharjah Housing Department. Housing programs disburse in stages tied to progress — each phase requires an engineering report. Al Roqi prepares these reports and tracks disbursement.
