    Prices for 3BRs are about 250k AED/year in Business Bay, about 300k AED/year in Downtown or about 150k AED/year in Damac Hills (far away), so I'd say 20k month is gets you a nice 3BR pretty much in every location (excluding palm and bluewater island, al barari and other ultra-lux locations)...

    Cyprus non dom + offshore company, most tax efficient setup?

    Dubai is 9% but first 100k is tax free so you make 300k profit you pay tax on 200k meaning your effective tax is 6%. Also salaries are tax exempt so paying out a salary lowers your tax + many expenses (even personal one) can be tax deductible. So it's not "dead" it's not just that "simple" as it...

    Where would you move if you had a Family?

    I'm interested in these peanut villas. Can you show me some samples (DM is fine)? Dubai checks most of the boxes but it's generally quite expensive place to live so you might be better of living somewhere else and paying some taxes. For eg. a family of 4 needs around EUR 10k/month to live in...

    Malta vs Cyprus

    I also find apartments in Malta much nicer than in Cyprus! They look more modern and better designed. I bet there are! But buying a car is never investment - it's always an expense and you buy one because you need it to take you places.
