Geography

United Arab Emirates — Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Sharjah, Ajman, Ras Al Khaimah

Data Coverage

Property listings, asking prices, rental yields, off-plan inventory, developer launches, agent data

Actowiz Solutions architected a real-estate data aggregation pipeline for a Dubai-based PropTech startup — combining Bayut, Property Finder, and dubizzle Property listings into a unified investor-grade dataset covering both ready and off-plan inventory across all seven emirates.

Client Overview

The client is a Dubai-headquartered PropTech startup serving international real-estate investors with an AI-powered UAE property investment platform. With Dubai's property market growing 19% in 2024 alone and off-plan transactions hitting record volumes, real-time multi-source data was essential to underwriting investment decisions.

Bayut and Property Finder dominate UAE property search, with dubizzle Property providing significant additional coverage. Triangulating all three is the only way to achieve true UAE market completeness.

Business Challenges

Off-Plan Inventory Complexity

Off-plan transactions account for 60%+ of Dubai sales; tracking developer launches, payment plans, and handover schedules required specialised parsing beyond standard listing scraping.

Bilingual Listings (Arabic + English)

'Many listings appeared in both Arabic and English with subtle differences; deduplication required language-aware matching.

Developer & Project Resolution

Same building was often referred to differently across portals ('Damac Hills' vs 'Damac Hills 2' vs 'Akoya') — entity resolution was critical.

Rental Yield Calculation Complexity

UAE rents are typically quoted annually with cheque-payment frequencies (1, 4, 12 cheques) affecting effective yield.

Project Objectives

The client partnered with Actowiz Solutions to:

  • Aggregate Bayut, Property Finder & dubizzle Property listings across UAE

  • Track off-plan launches and developer payment plans in real-time

  • Resolve building and project names across portals with 95%+ accuracy

  • Deduplicate bilingual Arabic-English listings

  • Compute true rental yields adjusted for UAE cheque-payment conventions
