About SBH

Built on process, so owners don’t have to be involved

SBH Real Estate is a Dubai-based property management company. Since 2021 it has managed more than 40 residential, commercial and office properties for owners who want professional oversight without daily involvement: tenants and renewals, rent and cheques, maintenance, and a monthly statement in English and Arabic.

Who we are

SBH Real Estate started in 2021 managing a family portfolio in Dubai: apartments, villas, whole buildings and offices, each with its own tenants, cheques and contractors. The processes we built to run that portfolio, with one manager per property, approvals in writing and a statement every month, are the same ones we now offer to other owners, on the same terms.

We work from Office 204, Oud Metha Offices. Our clients are individual owners, portfolio investors, owners who live abroad, and owners of commercial units.

What we believe a manager owes an owner

  • Your money on a known date, with every line explained.
  • No spending above your limit without your yes.
  • The truth about the unit, the tenant and the market, even when it’s unwelcome.
  • One person to call, who knows your property.

How we work

  1. Assessment

    We look at the unit, its condition, its rent against the market and its tenancy, and tell you plainly where it stands.

  2. The plan

    Manage it as it is, re-let it, or change something first. You get a written plan, a budget and a start date.

  3. Operations

    Tenants, cheques, maintenance and paperwork, handled by one manager with one number.

  4. Reporting

    A statement every month, a budget every year, and a call whenever a decision is yours to make.

Who we work with

  • Individual owners

    One apartment or villa. You want the rent in, the tenant looked after and the calls to stop.

  • Portfolio investors

    Several units, or a whole building. You want occupancy, costs and returns in one monthly view.

  • Overseas owners

    You live abroad. You need someone in Dubai to hold the keys, meet the tenant and bank the cheques.

  • Commercial owners

    Offices, retail and warehouses. Longer leases, fit-out handovers and a different kind of tenant.
