(a) authorizes Oliva to act on your behalf in property searches and negotiations;
(b) sets out your requirements, budget, and preferred locations;

11.2 For resale properties, negotiation is common. Typical discounts range from 0% to 10% depending on market conditions, seller motivation, property specifics, and negotiation dynamics.
11.3 For off-plan properties, especially in high-demand developments, price negotiation is typically very difficult or impossible. However, Developers may offer:
(a) payment plan flexibility;
(b) waiver of certain fees;
(c) upgrades or furnishing packages; or
(d) extended post-handover payment terms.
IMPORTANT: We always try our best to negotiate favorable terms, but we CANNOT guarantee any discounts. Dubai's competitive real estate market, particularly for premium off-plan properties, often leaves limited room for price negotiation.

(a) standard commission payments;
(b) bonus payments for achieving sales volumes;
(c) Developer marketing support;
(d) payment plan waivers or enhancements for clients; and

CAPITAL AT RISK WARNING
ALL PROPERTY INVESTMENTS CARRY RISK. YOUR CAPITAL IS AT RISK. YOU MAY LOSE SOME OR ALL OF YOUR INVESTMENT. PAST PERFORMANCE IS NOT A RELIABLE INDICATOR OF FUTURE RESULTS. RENTAL YIELDS AND CAPITAL APPRECIATION ARE NOT GUARANTEED.
20.1 Property investment involves significant risks. By engaging our Services, you acknowledge and accept the following risks:
20.1.1 Market Risks
(a) Property Value Fluctuations: Dubai's real estate market has experienced significant price volatility. Between 2014 and 2020, the market experienced sustained price declines across many segments. Property values can fall substantially, and you may sell for less than your purchase price.
(b) Oversupply Risk: Dubai continues to experience significant new property supply. Oversupply in certain areas or segments can depress prices and rental yields.
(c) Economic Dependency: Dubai's economy is influenced by oil prices, tourism, trade flows, and regional geopolitical conditions. Economic downturns can materially impact property values and rental demand.
(d) Interest Rate Risk: Rising interest rates increase mortgage costs and can reduce property demand and values. UAE banks typically adjust rates based on EIBOR movements.
20.1.2 Liquidity Risks
(a) Illiquidity: Real estate is an illiquid asset class. Properties cannot be quickly sold at market prices. Sales may take 30 to 90 days under normal conditions, and 6 to 12 months or longer in challenging markets.
(b) No Guaranteed Exit: There is no guarantee you will be able to sell your property when desired, at your desired price, or at all.
(c) Transaction Costs: Exit costs (DLD fees, agency commission, NOC fees, mortgage discharge) typically exceed 4-5% of property value, reducing net proceeds.
20.1.3 Rental Income Risks
(a) Yields Not Guaranteed: Any yield estimates are projections based on historical data and current conditions. Actual yields may be materially lower.
(b) Vacancy Risk: Properties may remain vacant between tenancies. Budget for 4 to 8 weeks vacancy per year minimum.
(c) Tenant Default: Tenants may fail to pay rent. Recovery through the Rental Dispute Settlement Centre takes 2 to 6 months.
(d) Service Charge Increases: Service charges can increase substantially year-over-year, reducing net rental income.
20.1.4 Developer and Construction Risks (Off-Plan)
(a) Developer Default: Developers may face financial difficulties, bankruptcy, or inability to complete projects. Escrow accounts provide some protection, but recovery may be delayed or incomplete.
(b) Construction Delays: Projects frequently experience delays. While developers may be liable for compensation, enforcement varies.
(c) Specification Changes: Final delivered specifications may differ from showroom models and marketing materials. RERA permits area variations of plus or minus 5%.
(d) Project Cancellation: Projects may be cancelled. Refund procedures may take considerable time and you may lose opportunity costs and transaction fees.
20.1.5 Currency Risks
(a) Exchange Rate Fluctuations: If your home currency is not USD or AED, currency movements will affect your effective purchase price, rental income, and sale proceeds.
(b) AED/USD Peg: The AED is pegged to USD but this peg is not guaranteed indefinitely.
(c) Conversion Costs: Currency conversions involve fees and spreads that reduce returns.
20.1.6 Regulatory and Legal Risks
(a) Foreign Ownership Laws: While foreign ownership is currently permitted in designated areas, laws may change.
(b) Visa Rules: Golden Visa and property investor visa rules change frequently. Thresholds may increase and eligibility may be modified.
(c) Tax Changes: While the UAE currently has no personal income tax or capital gains tax, this may change. You remain responsible for home country tax obligations.
(d) Inheritance: UAE law applies Sharia inheritance principles by default. Non-Muslims should register a DIFC will.

25.1 Upon request, we may refer you to third-party property management companies. When you engage such a company:
(a) The property manager acts as YOUR agent under a direct agreement with you, not as Oliva's agent.

27.2 Conflict of Interest Disclosure: We may receive referral fees, marketing support, or other benefits from Third-Party Providers. We select providers based on compliance, track record, quality, and pricing, but we do not guarantee they are the best or most suitable option for you.
