CASE STUDY: How Bilal Khan from Pakistan Built His Real Estate Success Story in Dubai with La Foret Real Estate
From Karachi to Dubai — How a First-Time Investor Made His Smartest Move Yet!
Meet Bilal — An Ambitious Entrepreneur Ready to Go Global
Bilal Khan, a 34-year-old entrepreneur from Karachi, Pakistan, had built a successful local business over the last decade.
But in 2024, he realized something bigger:
He didn’t just want to grow in Pakistan—he wanted to expand his future internationally.
Dubai was the natural choice.
- Close to home
- Safe, vibrant, and globally connected
- And a real estate market built not just for the wealthy, but for smart, ambitious investors like him
“Dubai always felt like a second home. But this time, I wanted more than visits—I wanted to invest, to plant roots.”
— Bilal Khan, Dubai Investor
The Challenge: Dreaming Big, But Unsure Where to Begin
When Bilal started looking at Dubai property listings from Karachi, it felt… complicated.
- So many areas: Business Bay, Downtown, JVC, Dubai Hills Estate…
- So many property types: off-plan, ready-to-move, holiday homes
- So many questions: ownership rules, service charges, rental yields, taxes
And worst of all?
Everyone he spoke to sounded the same—selling, rushing, pushing.
Bilal wasn’t looking for a sales agent.
He was looking for a partner who actually cared about his success.
That’s when he found La Foret Real Estate.
The Turning Point: A Team That Listened First
From the very first call, Bilal could feel the difference.
Instead of “Here’s what we have,”
La Foret asked:
- What are your goals?
- Are you investing for rental income, long-term capital growth, or both?
- How much time do you want to spend managing the property?
They didn’t just try to sell him a brochure.
They helped him build a strategy.

“For the first time, I felt like someone was on my side—not just making a commission.”
— Bilal Khan
The Journey: Turning Plans into Smart Moves
Working closely with his La Foret advisor, Bilal:
✅ Narrowed his search to Business Bay and Dubai Hills Estate (strong rental yields + resale growth)
✅ Reviewed ready and off-plan projects
✅ Understood key costs: DLD fees, service charges, agent commissions
✅ Got private previews of listings before public launch
✅ Compared rental market performance data by building
He learned that off-plan would tie up his capital for years, but a ready-to-move property would start generating income immediately—exactly what he needed.
The Result: A Prime Investment Property in Business Bay
After a few detailed virtual tours and expert advice, Bilal secured:
- ✅ A 1-bedroom fully furnished apartment in Business Bay
- ✅ Mid-floor unit with canal view
- ✅ Freehold ownership for overseas investor
- ✅ Strong estimated net rental yield: 8.1%
- ✅ La Foret property management taking care of rentals
And best of all?
The property was already rented to a corporate tenant—instant cash flow from day one!
