Kore by Imtiaz Golden Visa

None at current starting prices. Studio apartments start at AED 679K ≈ USD 185K, 1 bedroom apartments at AED 1.10M ≈ USD 300K and 2 bedroom apartments at AED 1.55M ≈ USD 422K, so every layout sits below the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K property threshold, with the 2 bedroom closest at AED 450K ≈ USD 123K below. Layouts and prices are set out on the Kore by Imtiaz project page, and the full criteria in the Dubai Golden Visa requirements guide.

On the registered purchase value. The authorities assess the value recorded with the Dubai Land Department, on the Oqood before handover and on the title deed after it, under the rules in force at the time of application. At current starting prices every Kore layout registers below AED 2M ≈ USD 545K, and a resale or secondary unit priced below that line would not qualify either.

Both plans start with 20% on booking plus the 4% DLD fee, which is paid to the Dubai Land Department on top of the price and does not count toward the threshold. The 50/50 plan then takes six instalments of 5% between 15 February 2027 and 15 September 2028 and 50% on completion in Q4 2028; the 60/40 post-handover plan takes 35% across five dated instalments to 15 April 2028, 5% on completion and 40% over three years after handover. Because no single Kore layout reaches the value threshold at current starting prices, the plans shape cash flow rather than an application window.

Off-plan property applications usually rest on Oqood registration and evidence that the purchase reaches the qualifying value, together with any paid-value conditions in force when the file is submitted. At Kore the sequence does not start with timing: as of October 2026 the project is pre-construction with handover expected in Q4 2028, and no single apartment reaches the value threshold at current starting prices. The general process is laid out in the off-plan property Golden Visa guide.

Joint ownership does not close the gap at Kore. Where a property is co-owned, the authorities commonly look at each owner's share of the registered value, and the conditions for co-owned property are updated from time to time and applied as in force at the time of application. Splitting a Kore apartment priced below AED 2M ≈ USD 545K between two buyers moves each share further from the threshold, not closer.

No. Financing changes how a purchase is paid for, not its registered value, and every Kore layout registers below AED 2M ≈ USD 545K at current starting prices whether it is bought with cash or a mortgage. Where a qualifying property is mortgaged, the authorities commonly apply additional conditions, such as lender documentation, under the rules in force at the time of application.

Family sponsorship follows from holding the visa: under the program's current terms, a property Golden Visa holder can generally sponsor a spouse and children, subject to the rules in force at the time of application. Sponsorship does not change the value test, and no single Kore apartment reaches the threshold at current starting prices. Dependant rules are covered in the Dubai Golden Visa benefits guide.

The program's current term is 10 years, renewable, with renewal commonly tied to continued ownership of property that still meets the value condition at the time. That term becomes relevant only once a purchase meets the qualifying value, which no single Kore layout does at current starting prices.

There is no service fee. When a purchase made through this advisory meets the value test, the VIP service prepares the documents, files the application and tracks its status free of charge, and the government's own fees, at the rates the issuing authorities set when you apply, are the only cost. The service handles the paperwork rather than eligibility, and no single Kore apartment reaches the threshold at current starting prices.

No. Approval is never automatic for any property: the authorities weigh the registered value alongside identity checks, background screening and every other condition that applies on the day the file is reviewed. At Kore the value test itself is not met by a single apartment at current starting prices. Construction status is tracked on the Kore by Imtiaz construction updates page.
