المنازل الثانية والملاذات

These are lock-and-leave homes for the parts of life that happen away from your primary base: serviced, secure, and ready to step into. The defining feature is a service model that keeps the home maintained and ready, so it stays a pleasure to use rather than a property to manage.

Today the selection spans Montenegro, the United Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia. Foreign buyers can own apartments and buildings outright in Montenegro. The UAE allows freehold in designated areas across Dubai and Abu Dhabi. Saudi Arabia opened foreign freehold to all nationalities within designated zones from 22 January 2026.

In several of our markets it can. UAE property investment from AED 2 million can support a 10-year Golden Visa, qualifying real-estate investment from SAR 4 million can support residency eligibility in Saudi Arabia, and property ownership in Montenegro supports a renewable temporary-residence permit. The exact criteria are set by each authority, so we confirm eligibility case by case.

Treat the life decision and the investment decision separately and honestly. We do not promise yield or capital growth. Instead we help you understand the market fundamentals, the service and running costs, and the resale terms, such as the transfer fee of up to 5% that applies on disposals by non-Saudis in Saudi Arabia.

It means the home is run to a managed standard, with the upkeep, security and concierge handled for you. The Four Seasons Private Residences in Jeddah, for example, offer 24-hour concierge, a residents' spa, signature dining and an optional rental programme, with the homes operated to the Four Seasons standard.

Look closely at how the residence is managed and what the service charges cover, the ownership and tax terms in that market, completion timing if the home is off-plan, and the costs of a future sale. We walk through each of these with you before any decision, alongside the market and cultural context of the location.
