The Real Estate Regulatory Agency (RERA) at Dubai Land Department (DLD) has announced the formation of 127 new owners’ committees across the emirate.
This initiative reinforces RERA’s commitment to empowering property owners and encouraging active involvement in community management, in line with Dubai’s vision of becoming a global real estate leader. A significant number of applications have been received, with approvals granted based on specific criteria for both new and existing committees.
The strong response highlights property owners’ increasing interest in community governance. RERA has invited all owners of jointly owned properties to register, as these committees play a key role in improving community well-being and resident satisfaction.
Owners’ committees enhance transparency and promote sustainable real estate management. Property management companies will coordinate with committees to elect a chairperson and vice-chairperson, allocate responsibilities, and oversee key tasks. These committees are responsible for reviewing budgets, prioritising maintenance, and managing shared services efficiently.
RERA will oversee operations, ensuring smooth coordination between management firms and committees. The agency remains committed to direct engagement with property owners, inviting both individuals and companies to join.
This initiative underscores Dubai’s dedication to high real estate governance standards. Owners’ committees foster collaboration, protect investments, and enhance residents’ quality of life. Eligible owners can register via DLD’s website or the Dubai REST app, provided they meet residency, Emirates ID, good conduct, and fee settlement requirements.
Through these efforts, DLD aims to enhance transparency, encourage owner participation, and support Dubai’s vision of a well-regulated, sustainable real estate sector.
