Dubai's commercial market moves quickly, and the decisions companies make about their premises tend to outlast the people who make them. This section covers what actually matters when you're leasing, expanding or consolidating office space here: how landlords structure incentives, what a fit-out really costs once you account for DEWA connections and municipality approvals, and why the headline rent is rarely the number to negotiate hardest on.

We write for the people responsible for these calls, whether that's a regional director, an office manager or a finance lead who inherited the lease. If you'd rather talk it through than read about it, our corporate relocation team handles the whole process end to end.
