Real Estate Service Businesses for Sale in the UAE

SHARH handles real estate service businesses (agencies, property management, FM), not direct property sales. The valuation logic and buyer pool are distinct.

Real estate brokerages typically transact at 0.5x to 1.5x annual revenue, with recurring-contract property management and FM firms attracting higher multiples (often 1.2x to 2.5x revenue or 4x to 6x EBITDA) due to the predictable cash flow base.

RERA-registered brokerages have specific licence-transfer considerations that affect deal timing. SHARH structures real estate service sales with these timelines baked into the process; pre-marketing prep typically takes four to six weeks before public marketplace listing, longer than F&B or retail deals.

Buyers include consolidation-stage operators (medium-sized brokerages building scale via M&A), institutional FM platforms expanding their portfolio, and family-office-backed search funds. Listings on the marketplace omit identifying details until NDA execution.
