Sobha Realty Reviews 

I had a very positive experience dealing with Sambhav Gupta, Sales Manager at Sobha Dubai. What really stood out to me was his transparency and honesty — qualities that are surprisingly rare in sales.

Sambhav takes the time to genuinely understand the client's concerns and priorities rather than simply trying to push a sale. He listens patiently, addresses questions objectively, and gives you the information you need to make an informed decision.

I particularly appreciated that he never made me feel pressured, even when there were opportunities to do so. His approach is consultative rather than pushy, which builds a great deal of trust and confidence.

In my opinion, Sambhav represents the kind of sales professional who understands that building a long-term relationship and earning the client's trust is more important than closing a quick deal.

Highly appreciate his professionalism, transparency and client-first approach. I would definitely recommend Sambhav to anyone considering Sobha Dubai.

Unfortunately, my experience with Sobha Realty has been extremely disappointing. In my opinion, Sobha’s strongest point is its marketing, not the actual customer experience.
I feel that we were attracted by impressive advertising, presentations and promises, only to discover a very different reality after committing to the purchase.
Another major concern for me is the high commissions and incentives offered to real estate agents. From my experience, this creates a situation where aggressive marketing and sales efforts work hand in hand to push buyers into making very expensive commitments.
I deeply regret trusting the marketing and purchasing based on the expectations that were created. Buyers should be extremely careful, do their own independent research, and not rely solely on advertisements, sales presentations or agents’ recommendations.

Ces gents sont des voleurs, ils essaient de te mettre des pénalités de retard! pour gagner plus d'argent! faite très attention! n'achetez pas chez eux! plusieurs personnes ont subit le même issue!

Please be extremely careful and do your own due diligence before dealing with Likhitha Boyapathi ( Sales Rep ) Bangalore.

Never Trust this fraud lady

She was our primary sales contact during our flat booking and introduced us to the Channel Partner arrangement. We trusted her representations as a sales professional and proceeded accordingly.

After my husband was diagnosed with a serious medical condition, we had to cancel the booking. Despite knowing our situation, she repeatedly assured us that she would help recover the ₹8.58 lakh deducted from our refund. We relied on those assurances, but the matter was never resolved and communication eventually stopped.

For our family, this has resulted in an extremely painful financial loss of approximately ₹8.58 lakh at a time when we urgently need funds for my husband's continuing medical treatment.

I am sharing our experience so prospective customers can independently verify every representation made to them and, particularly, understand the financial consequences of any Channel Partner arrangement before proceeding.

I am not asking anyone to rely blindly on my words. Please do your own due diligence and ask for everything in writing before making any financial commitment if you wish to proceed flat booking through this lady Likhitha Boyapathi in Bangalore

I am a property owner in Sobha Creek Vistas Grande which got handed over on Jan-2025. Just 1.5 years after handover my apartment has major cracks across the walls and ceilings which are structural in nature. Sobha property management wants to hear nothing about it when raised, pointing to the fact that the Defect Liability Period is for 1 year hence anything that appears after that should be paid for by the owner irrespective of how structural it appears. I raised some of the points during the Defect Liability Period and they were temporarily rectified but have now reappeared in a more severe way a few months later and even such Sobha declines to attend to.

The above legitimate complaints raised with Sobha maintenance have been met with stonewalling and disappearance into the call centre system for months with no solution or will to rectify.

There are clearly significant potential post Defect Liability Period repairs which should be sitting with the developer that Sobha should be repairing in good faith but property owners will need to incur these instead as early as one year after handover. This should be taken into account when purchasing a property in this building.

This is the worst experience working with a developer in the UAE.
I have never had as many problems with any developer as I have with this company!!!
Zero response to customer emails, zero response to customer complaints.
I would never recommend anyone to call or work with them!!

I entered into a five-year agreement and made the required initial payment of 20% in accordance with the contract.

Due to unforeseen financial difficulties, I was unable to make the payment due this month. I immediately informed the company that I would also be unable to make any future payments under the agreement and requested a clear explanation of the legal and financial consequences of my situation.

Despite my repeated requests, the company has consistently refused to provide a direct answer. Instead, I have only received repeated reminders stating that I must make the payment and that daily interest will continue to accrue if I fail to do so.

Most importantly, the company has failed to explain what the final outcome will be if I permanently stop making payments. They have not informed me whether the agreement will be terminated, whether legal action will be taken, whether my previous payments will be forfeited, or whether I have any remaining rights or obligations under the contract.

I have clearly stated that I will not be making any further payments. Nevertheless, the company continues to avoid answering my questions and has not provided any information regarding the 20% that I have already paid. I have not been informed whether this amount will be retained by the company, refunded in whole or in part, or otherwise dealt with under the terms of the agreement.

I consider the company's refusal to provide clear and transparent information regarding the consequences of non-payment to be unacceptable. As a consumer, I am entitled to understand my contractual rights, obligations, and the financial consequences of my decision. Repeatedly demanding payment while refusing to explain the contractual outcome prevents me from making informed decisions and raises serious concerns regarding transparency and fair business practices.

I respectfully request a written response clearly explaining:

* the legal consequences of permanently ceasing payments;
* the status of the agreement after default;
* the treatment of the 20% already paid;
* any additional financial obligations or penalties that may apply; and
* the company's legal basis for its position.

If this information continues to be withheld, I reserve the right to submit this matter to the relevant consumer protection authorities and any other competent regulatory bodies for further review.

From the moment we signed the Sale and Purchase Agreement, our experience with Sobha has been consistently disappointing.

Every communication we received was generic and templated, regardless of the specific and detailed questions we raised. Requests for real construction progress documentation, milestone certification, and escrow account status were repeatedly redirected to the One Sobha App, which provides no official, certified, or verifiable information.

When we formally raised concerns about visible construction delays and asked for a settlement statement and legal basis for any retention, we received no substantive answer.

This pattern shows a customer service model built to manage complaints rather than resolve them. There is no evidence of genuine care for clients once the contract is signed and payments begin.

We would ask Sobha to reflect seriously on how client communication is handled after sale, and to provide real, documented answers instead of generic responses.

Worst developer in the UAE. No ethics, no customer service. Not one responsible person in the Sobha organisation. Do not !!! Do not deal with Sobha

This company job is make surplus venture-so they create sooo much of inventory and so automatically the demand reduces.
So the investors don’t get proper appreciation in due course.
And the other problem is they don’t provide the renewed trade license and so during paying if instalments we tend to do a faulty transaction and once the delay takes place in paying,they start collecting fines,inspite of bad geopolitical issues and their faulty submission of expired trade license
This is sooo bad reputation to the company

I paid AED 161,000 as an Expression of Interest deposit to Sobha Realty in December 2025. Their Sales Manager, Deepak Tahelyani, confirmed in writing via email on 31 December 2025 that the full amount was refundable unless I signed a booking form. I never signed one — something he himself confirmed in writing on 10 February 2026.
I requested my refund in January 2026. Since then I have been met with delays, broken promises, and eventually complete silence. In April 2026, a member of their Sales Operations team emailed me to say the refund had been processed and would arrive within 3-4 working days. It is now May 2026 and nothing has arrived. They cannot even provide a transaction reference number.
I have filed a formal complaint with RERA and the Dubai Land Department. I am now pursuing legal action.
Sobha’s properties may be attractive, but if anything goes wrong, be warned — getting your money back is a completely different story. Over four months, two written commitments, and AED 161,000 still missing.

Very concerning experience regarding the handling of personal data.

After providing my contact details to Sobha, I was suddenly exposed to a large number of unsolicited calls, emails, and WhatsApp messages from third parties. These contacts referenced not only my name, but also very specific details about my apartment, which strongly suggests that sensitive information was shared without my consent.

The volume of these contacts became so excessive that I was forced to change both my phone number and email address. This caused significant disruption to my communication and day-to-day activities.

Despite extensive evidence, Sobha continues to deny any responsibility and refuses to acknowledge the issue. At the same time, they insist on charging late payment fees that arose as a direct consequence of the disrupted communication.

Overall, this situation has led to a serious loss of trust. I would strongly recommend that potential buyers pay close attention to how their personal data is handled.

They fired a large number of employees at once under the pretext of the current situation. This company does not respect its employees. So how can the investor trust it?

Without great help from Dihia Mokrani - CRM executive - Sobha Realty I would not be able to solve my problem. She showed respect, professionalism and speed in resolving issues.

Thank you, ms Dihia!
