How to Choose a Real estate developer in Lebanon: A Practical Guide
Choosing the right real estate developer in Lebanon is easier when you know what to look for before you commit. A little checking up front saves time, money and frustration later.
Check credentials and track record
Confirm the real estate developer is properly qualified and ask how much recent, relevant work they have done. Reviews and a real portfolio tell you more than a polished advert.
Match them to your specific need
Before buying off-plan, check the developer's finished projects, delivery record and the exact payment-and-handover terms in the contract — reputation on delivery is everything here. Ask directly whether this is something they handle regularly, and request an example of similar work.
Agree scope and price in writing
Get a clear written quote covering exactly what is included and what is billed separately. In Lebanon's shifting prices, a written agreement protects both sides.
Red flags to avoid
Be cautious with anyone who won't put terms in writing, pressures you to pay large sums in cash without a receipt, or becomes hard to reach after the first payment.
