Off-plan is a promise. Your buyer is committing money to a building that doesn't exist yet, often from another country, often after one video call with an agent. What they find when they search your name decides whether that call turns into a reservation. Real estate PR, whether the project is in Dubai, London or Lisbon, puts your launch, your handovers and your market view on the property, business and lifestyle titles that search turns up.
Your situation

Trust is the product you're actually selling

Every developer in the market has renders, a show apartment and a payment plan. What separates you, to an overseas buyer, is evidence that you deliver. That evidence is mostly third-party: coverage of your last handover, your track record mentioned in a business title, a market comment from your MD that a journalist chose to quote.

If you've delivered three towers and none of it was covered, a first-time buyer can't tell you from a developer who has delivered none.

  • Handovers are news. Most developers forget to announce them.
  • A track record in print is more persuasive than one in a brochure.
  • Coverage outlives the launch; the buyer searching in month eight still finds it.

Why Dubai developers need third-party proof.

Dubai sells off-plan to buyers who often never visit before they reserve. They are in London, Mumbai, Riyadh or Moscow, comparing developers they have never met. The buyer in London will search the developer before they wire the deposit, and what they find decides whether the next payment is made.

Renders and payment plans look alike from one project to the next. Coverage of what a developer has already delivered does not. That is the proof real estate PR puts in front of the buyer: handovers on time, projects sold out, a market view a journalist chose to quote.

  • Off-plan launches, placed before the sales event so agents have links to send.
  • Handovers and completions, the proof that you finish.
  • Construction milestones, which keep a project visible between launch and handover.
  • Market commentary from your leadership, which positions the developer as the source.

How we run it

An off-plan launch, week by week

Say you're launching a 180-unit tower in Dubai Creek Harbour with a sales event on a Saturday and buyers expected from the UK, India and the Gulf. This is how the campaign would run.

Two weeks out

We pull the news from the brochure: location, unit mix, starting price, payment plan, completion date, and your delivery record. We draft one property-desk version and one business-desk version, and send both to your sales and legal teams.

One week out

Approved copy is scheduled. Placements are booked on property titles for the week of the event and on international business titles timed for UK and Indian morning readers.

Launch week

Coverage goes live before the event so agents can send links to registered buyers. Newswire syndication goes out for breadth, live within 24–48h.

The sales window

Lifestyle and market-commentary placements keep the project visible through the following weeks, while units are still being sold.

Getting it approved

Compliance care, without the legal advice

Property advertising has its own approvals process in most markets, and in Dubai off-plan marketing in particular is watched closely. We don't advise on what the rules require. Your legal team and your regulator do. What we do is make the approval easy and the copy safe.

  • We work only from approved project details: name, location, pricing, completion date and any permit references you provide.
  • Every figure is checked with your sales team before it reaches a desk.
  • We avoid yield promises and guaranteed-return language entirely unless you supply approved wording.
  • Nothing is scheduled until you sign off the final version.

The titles

Three desks, three buyers

Property titles reach agents, brokers and buyers already shopping. They want unit mix, pricing and handover dates. Business titles reach the investor buying three units for yield, who judges you on your delivery record and the market data. Lifestyle titles reach the end user who's buying the view, the school run and the neighbourhood. One launch, three versions, each written for the desk that runs it.

When buyers enquire at 11pm from London

Coverage creates enquiries, and property enquiries go cold fast. An overseas buyer who reads about your launch at night, fills in the form and hears nothing until your sales office opens has often already spoken to two other agents. We build AI Automation that replies in minutes in the buyer's language, sends the brochure and floor plans, asks the qualifying questions and books a call with the right agent for the morning.

The portal

Agencies and brokers ordering direct

If you place coverage for several developers or listings, the portal tracks each order with real status dates and gathers the live links against it. Your agents get a link to send, not a promise that it's coming.

What clients say

We'd delivered two buildings and never told anyone. The handover piece did more for our UK enquiries than the launch release. Agents still send it to buyers who ask whether we finish on time.
