About Layla
Years on one boulevard.
I moved to Dubai in 2011 to work in hotel development and started selling homes in Downtown five years later. I still work only in the streets I can walk: Downtown, Business Bay, DIFC and City Walk.
Sellers come to me for discreet, off-market sales. Buyers come for honest advice on floor, view and service charge, because those decide resale value here more than the brand on the lobby.
“The view you pay for should be the view you keep. I check what is being built next door before you sign.”

Clients
What they said after the keys.
Layla told us to walk away from the first penthouse because of a tower going up across the road. The one we bought instead has the view we were promised.
Sold our Business Bay apartment off-market in nine days, with no open house and no portal listing.
She handled the bank, the trustee and the NOC while I was in Paris. I signed twice and collected the keys.
