David and Sarah, British Expat Couple with Two Children
Challenge
The couple owned a Dubai Marina two-bedroom worth AED 2.6M with AED 900K outstanding. They wanted a four-bedroom Maple townhouse in Dubai Hills at AED 5.1M. The townhouse was available now but their Marina apartment wasn't sold. Combined income AED 75K/month was strong but simultaneous sale and purchase created a cash flow gap.
