Service charges, owners associations, and building management companies β a comprehensive legal framework protects owners in Dubai
Many unit owners are unaware they have clear legal rights against their management company
Service charges in Dubai are regulated by RERA's Mollak system. Charges must be RERA-approved and reflect actual costs. Unapproved or unjustified charges may be subject to review or challenge under the applicable legal procedures.
You have the right to access the owners association financial statements and expenditure details for common areas. The management board is obligated to provide full disclosure under the Jointly Owned Property Law.
Faulty lifts, unmaintained pools, deteriorating parking areas. The management company is legally responsible for maintaining common areas to the required standard. Repeated neglect gives you grounds for a formal complaint.
Illegal occupation, repeated noise, misuse of common areas. These violations have a specific reporting and handling mechanism under the Jointly Owned Property Law.
