Construction & Real Estate

Accounting Services for the Construction & Real Estate Sector in the UAE

The construction and real estate industry is one of the cornerstones of the UAE economy, with ongoing megaprojects, smart city developments, and high investor interest in residential and commercial properties. Yet, businesses in this sector face complex challenges — including cash flow volatility, long-term project accounting, VAT implications, and evolving UAE corporate tax laws.

At Gupta Accountants, our team of experienced chartered accountants provides tailored accounting, tax, and compliance solutions for developers, contractors, property managers, real estate brokers, and investors across Dubai, Abu Dhabi, and the wider UAE.

Sector-Specific Financial Expertise by Chartered Accountants

We understand the unique dynamics of contract-based revenue, cost escalation, project-based financing, and off-plan sales. Our chartered accountants ensure your financials are transparent, audit-ready, and aligned with local and international standards — whether you operate in the mainland, free zones, or manage cross-border property portfolios.

Our Construction & Real Estate Services Include:

Project-Based Accounting & Cost Tracking: Accurate revenue and expense tracking for long-term projects, contract milestones, retention payments, and subcontractor costs.

IFRS-Compliant Financial Statements: Preparation of detailed reports aligned with International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and UAE regulatory requirements.

VAT Compliance for Real Estate Transactions: End-to-end VAT advisory for off-plan and completed property sales, leasing, construction contracts, and mixed-use developments — including correct treatment under UAE VAT law.

Corporate Tax Structuring & Filing: Assessment of real estate income, qualifying free zone status (if applicable), and accurate Form CT001 submissions with full documentation.

Cash Flow Management & Budgeting: Forecasting for phased payments, construction timelines, investor payouts, and operational sustainability.
