I’m a tenant in Dubai and my landlord wants to sell the apartment. I think he has already sold the property or is almost about to finish the sales process.
He wanted me to vacate the apartment at the end of my tenancy contract in November 2021. He called me 90 days before the contract expiry, but I did not want to move out as I could not find a new apartment in such a short period of time as I was overseas.
He then sent me the 12-month legal notice in July, saying he does not want to renew the tenancy contract.
Now, the real estate broker who sold the apartment and the owner are putting pressure on me asking me to tell them if I intend to renew the contract or whether I will leave next July.
The landlord also threatened to significantly increase my rent. If he did not send me a 90-day notice to make any changes to the tenancy contract, is he entitled to increase rent? Can you advise? FR, Dubai
A landlord can only request an eviction of their tenant for the following reasons:
- If the landlord wishes to sell the property;
- If the landlord wishes to use the property himself or by a first degree relative;
- If the property requires extensive modernisation that would prove difficult for an existing tenant to stay during the renovation;
- If the property requires demolition.
For all of these reasons, a written 12-month notice has to be sent to the tenant via registered mail or notary public. The notice should be served upon expiry of your current tenancy agreement.
You confirmed that your landlord served you the 12-month notice to vacate from July this year. Therefore, all things being considered, you will have to vacate in July 2022.
There are, however, a few points to consider before doing this. If you decide to contest the eviction, you should open a case at the Rental Dispute Settlement Committee at the Dubai Land Department in Deira.
The new landlord cannot increase your current rent unless the Real Estate Regulatory Agency’s Rental Calculator states this is allowed
Mario Volpi
If the new buyer is an owner-occupier, some judges in the past have requested the new owner serve their own 12-month notice in addition to the one issued by the current landlord. This could extend your stay, but only if a judge rules in your favour.
If the buyer is an investor, your present tenancy contract is valid, including all the existing terms and conditions, and therefore the buyer cannot request you to leave as this is not allowed.
It is important to note the new landlord cannot increase your current rent unless the Real Estate Regulatory Agency’s Rental Calculator states this is allowed. You can find details of the Rera Rental Calculator by visiting the DLD website or downloading the Dubai Rest app.
Unless the new landlord has given you at least 90 days’ notice, no alterations can be made to your existing tenancy contract. If the landlord insists on new changes, these have to be mutually agreed.
There has been a water leak in the apartment above mine for the past two weeks and it is causing damage in my apartment.
The property management company acknowledged there is a water leak, but said they cannot disconnect the water supply until they receive approval from the owner of the apartment above mine. However, he is not responding.
I have launched a formal complaint with the DLD. What else can I do? Should I approach a legal company to help me? HM, Dubai
The building management can turn the water supply off. There is a difference between turning off the water supply and disconnecting it. If the leakage is causing damage elsewhere, this is a relatively simple procedure.
If you have lodged a formal complaint with Rera, the only other thing you can do is to keep trying to get the building management to see sense. It might help if you suggest you could possibly cover any additional costs related to this action.

When Umm Kulthum performed in Abu Dhabi
Known as The Lady of Arabic Song, Umm Kulthum performed in Abu Dhabi on November 28, 1971, as part of celebrations for the fifth anniversary of the accession of Sheikh Zayed bin Sultan Al Nahyan as Ruler of Abu Dhabi. A concert hall was constructed for the event on land that is now Al Nahyan Stadium, behind Al Wahda Mall. The audience were treated to many of Kulthum's most well-known songs as part of the sold-out show, including Aghadan Alqak and Enta Omri.

What are NFTs?
Are non-fungible tokens a currency, asset, or a licensing instrument? Arnab Das, global market strategist EMEA at Invesco, says they are mix of all of three.
You can buy, hold and use NFTs just like US dollars and Bitcoins. “They can appreciate in value and even produce cash flows.”
However, while money is fungible, NFTs are not. “One Bitcoin, dollar, euro or dirham is largely indistinguishable from the next. Nothing ties a dollar bill to a particular owner, for example. Nor does it tie you to to any goods, services or assets you bought with that currency. In contrast, NFTs confer specific ownership,” Mr Das says.
This makes NFTs closer to a piece of intellectual property such as a work of art or licence, as you can claim royalties or profit by exchanging it at a higher value later, Mr Das says. “They could provide a sustainable income stream.”
This income will depend on future demand and use, which makes NFTs difficult to value. “However, there is a credible use case for many forms of intellectual property, notably art, songs, videos,” Mr Das says.

Water waste
In the UAE’s arid climate, small shrubs, bushes and flower beds usually require about six litres of water per square metre, daily. That increases to 12 litres per square metre a day for small trees, and 300 litres for palm trees.
Horticulturists suggest the best time for watering is before 8am or after 6pm, when water won't be dried up by the sun.
A global report published by the Water Resources Institute in August, ranked the UAE 10th out of 164 nations where water supplies are most stretched.
The Emirates is the world’s third largest per capita water consumer after the US and Canada.

4. The biggest black holes lurk at the centre of many galaxies, including our own
5. Astronomers believe that when the universe was very young, black holes affected how galaxies formed

Types of bank fraud
1) Phishing
Fraudsters send an unsolicited email that appears to be from a financial institution or online retailer. The hoax email requests that you provide sensitive information, often by clicking on to a link leading to a fake website.
2) Smishing
The SMS equivalent of phishing. Fraudsters falsify the telephone number through “text spoofing,” so that it appears to be a genuine text from the bank.
3) Vishing
The telephone equivalent of phishing and smishing. Fraudsters may pose as bank staff, police or government officials. They may persuade the consumer to transfer money or divulge personal information.
4) SIM swap
Fraudsters duplicate the SIM of your mobile number without your knowledge or authorisation, allowing them to conduct financial transactions with your bank.
5) Identity theft
Someone illegally obtains your confidential information, through various ways, such as theft of your wallet, bank and utility bill statements, computer intrusion and social networks.
6) Prize scams
Fraudsters claiming to be authorised representatives from well-known organisations (such as Etisalat, du, Dubai Shopping Festival, Expo2020, Lulu Hypermarket etc) contact victims to tell them they have won a cash prize and request them to share confidential banking details to transfer the prize money.
