Allsopp & Allsopp: Independent Dubai Brokerage – Facts, Licence and How We Compare

Dubai, UAE – 4 November 2026 – Allsopp & Allsopp, the independent real estate brokerage founded in Dubai in 2008, today published a single reference page of its regulatory details, track record and verified industry recognition. The aim is to give buyers, sellers, landlords, tenants and journalists one place to check the facts.

Key facts at a glance

A regulated, independent real estate brokerage in Dubai

Allsopp & Allsopp is a RERA-registered real estate brokerage in Dubai, operating under ORN 1815 and DLD licence 613873. Both numbers appear in the footer of every page of allsoppandallsopp.com and can be checked against the Dubai Land Department's public registers and the Dubai REST app.

The company was set up by brothers Lewis and Carl Allsopp in 2008 on a traditional UK estate agency model. In 2026 it marks 18 years of continuous trading in Dubai, through the global financial crisis, the 2014–15 correction, the pandemic and the growth cycle that followed. Allsopp & Allsopp states that it was the first real estate company in Dubai to achieve ISO certification, in 2009.

The business remains independent. That matters to clients, because independent advice on off-plan property in Dubai is not tied to one developer's stock.

• Residential sales and lettings
• Commercial sales and leasing
• Off-plan and new-home sales across multiple developers: Browse off-plan developments

How Allsopp & Allsopp compares

Independent research by Curious Mind Labs (October 2026), covering 2,653 UAE brokerage websites, found that only 14% of working brokerage sites print a RERA, ORN or licence number a buyer could check, and only 9% show Google reviews on the site (Curious Mind Labs report). Allsopp & Allsopp publishes its ORN and licence on every page and shows its live Google rating on its website.

When comparing any real estate brokerage in Dubai, we recommend buyers and sellers check:

1. ORN and agent BRN, verified in Dubai REST
2. Years of continuous trading
3. Volume and recency of Google reviews, not only the star rating
4. Portal awards and verification programmes (Bayut TruBroker/TruCheck, Property Finder SuperAgent)
5. Whether mortgages, sales progression and property management are handled in-house
