New Zealanders in general and Kiwi-Indians in particular who are keen to own a property in Dubai, United Arab Emirates will have an opportunity to do so as a major developer plans to conduct a two-day Roadshow in Auckland.
Promoted by Danube Properties of Dubai in conjunction with the Auckland-based Bison Homes, the Roadshow will be held from 10 am to 6 pm on May 31 and June 1, 2025, at the Cordis Hotel on Symonds Street.
Danube Properties Chief Executive Rizwaan Sajan and Baison Homes Director Sandeep Raju will participate in the two-day event to explain salient features of the property and apprise potential investors/buyers of the initiatives offered by the UAE and Dubai governments to foreigners.

The Dynamic Dubai Market
“This forthcoming event promises not merely a glimpse into a dynamic market but a comprehensive immersion into a world of sophisticated urban living and lucrative investment prospects. As the global stage increasingly turns its gaze towards the Arab Gulf, Dubai stands as a beacon of economic prosperity and architectural innovation, offering a unique blend of modernity and strategic advantage. The elegance of its burgeoning property market, coupled with an array of compelling incentives, presents an undeniably attractive proposition for those seeking to diversify their portfolios and secure their financial futures,” he said.
Mr Raju said that the Roadshow has been designed to provide attendees with a seamless and insightful journey into the heart of Dubai’s real estate offerings.
While the property in Dubai has several successful partnerships, the Danube-Bison tie-up could redefine the accessibility of international property investment for Kiwi investors.
Danube Properties, a preeminent developer in Dubai, boasts an impressive record of successfully delivering more than 30 landmark projects. Its reputation for constructing high-quality, affordably priced, and fully furnished apartments precedes it, making it an ideal partner for Bison Homes’ mission to connect New Zealanders with secure, high-return overseas property investment opportunities. The synergy between these two entities ensures that attendees of the Roadshow will be engaging with opportunities of high calibre, backed by a proven history of success and a shared commitment to excellence.
Mr Raju said that the joint mission of the two companies is to bring secure, high-return overseas property investment opportunities to Kiwi investors.
“With Dubai being one of the world’s fastest-growing property markets, our collaboration with Danube allows New Zealanders to invest directly in Dubai real estate, without middlemen or agent fees. This direct access to the market not only streamlines the investment process but also ensures greater transparency and potentially higher returns for investors. The elimination of agent fees is a significant advantage, translating directly into enhanced profitability for those who choose to invest through this exclusive channel,” he said.
An array of benefits
The Dubai Property Roadshow is poised to offer an array of benefits designed to cater to the discerning investor. Attendees will have an opportunity of one-on-one consultations with property experts, allowing for personalised guidance and the addressing of specific investment queries.
Detailed project showcases will provide in-depth insights into the various developments on offer, featuring comprehensive presentations of architectural designs, amenities, and projected returns. Mr Raju and Mr Sajan said that the Roadshow will reveal exclusive investment offers, presenting unique advantages for those who choose to seize this moment.
The cost of fully furnished apartments starts from $360,000, presenting an accessible entry point into the Dubai property market. The offering could be a turnkey solution for those seeking immediate occupancy or rental income. Adding to the attractiveness are flexible payment plans, including 1% monthly instalments, which significantly ease the financial commitment and make property ownership in Dubai more attainable.
For those seeking prime locations, properties situated just ten minutes from the iconic Burj Khalifa will be showcased, offering the prestige and convenience of being in close proximity to one of the world’s most renowned landmarks.
The Golden Visa
The provision of Golden Visa assistance for investors is another remarkable incentive, offering a pathway to long-term residency in the UAE, a testament to the forward-thinking policies of the Dubai government. The ability to buy directly from the developer, circumventing agent fees, underscores the transparent and cost-effective nature of these investment opportunities. To ensure a seamless and comfortable experience for all attendees, valet parking will be readily available at the Cordis Auckland.
One of the most compelling advantages of investing in Dubai is the availability of the ‘Golden Visa,’ a highly sought-after long-term residency Visa granted by the UAE government, and more specifically by the Dubai government, to investors. This initiative is designed to attract foreign capital and talent, providing a stable and welcoming environment for those who contribute to the nation’s economic growth.
The Golden Visa offers numerous benefits, including extended residency for individuals and their families, the ability to work and live in the UAE without the need for a national sponsor, and enhanced mobility. For investors, this Visa represents not just a permit to reside but a gateway to a lifestyle of unparalleled opportunity and a secure future within a globally connected hub.
This could be an opportunity for those considering a significant international investment, offering not only financial returns but also the invaluable benefit of long-term residency in a dynamic and prosperous nation.
