McCone Properties in Dubai is seeking top-performing real estate professionals to join our commission-based desk. Bring a proven closing record, two years of property sales or other high-value sales, and a relentless drive to build your own pipeline.
You will work with listings, buyers, and negotiations, and complete transfers at the Dubai Land Department, backed by our leads, marketing, and in-house CRM. There is no base salary; earnings are commission-driven with 50–70% shares, and top earners
You already know the job; what changes is the market. Listings, buyers, negotiation, transfer at the Dubai Land Department — your book, with our leads, marketing and CRM behind it.
In 2013 I was a fresh graduate in Barcelona, and nobody was calling me back. My father, newly retired after twenty years flying for Emirates, was buying an apartment in Dubai. He asked the brokerage for a favour: would they give his son an interview?
They did. I flew out, started from zero, and never left. Twelve years later, McCone Properties is one of Dubai's leading brokerages — a team of 200+ people from all over the world.
A few years in, my mother Johanna joined the company. Her CV was twenty-five years spent raising the five of us — no real estate, no sales. She became one of our best agents.
The point is not that experience is optional — for this desk it is not. It is that we back people who are set on becoming very successful, and we have watched it happen from every starting line.
Commission only means exactly that: no salary. Some agents reach a stable income in their first couple of months; others need longer. That is why we recommend around six months of savings — runway to learn the market and build your pipeline properly. After that there is no ceiling: 50-70% commission, paid daily. The US$2.4M above is our best earner, not our average. But he is real.
You have done this job somewhere it is taxed.
