Dubai-based developer DHG Properties has launched a dedicated property management platform alongside Helvetia Stays, a holiday homes brand offering professionally managed short-term rentals.
Announced on 10 November 2026, the expansion will introduce services covering real estate advisory, long-term leasing, resale and property management for homeowners within DHG's residential developments.
The initiative extends the developer's involvement beyond construction and handover, allowing it to provide ongoing support throughout the property ownership lifecycle.
The DHG Property Management Platform draws on the vertically integrated business model established by its Swiss parent company, DHG Group.
The group has operated for more than three decades across property investment, development, construction, facilities management and hospitality.
By introducing a similar model in the UAE, DHG aims to consolidate property-related services under a single operating structure.
The platform will initially serve homeowners at Helvetia Residences in Jumeirah Village Circle, the developer's first completed residential project in Dubai.
Helvetia Stays will provide short-term rental management exclusively for Helvetia homeowners.
Its in-house team will oversee property listings, bookings, licensing, housekeeping, maintenance and guest relations.
The service is designed to allow owners to generate rental income while retaining flexibility over personal use of their properties.
The launch comes amid continued activity in Dubai's holiday homes market. According to figures cited by DHG, the city recorded 33,795 active short-term rental listings in the second quarter of 2026, representing a 10.2% annual increase.
Milos Antic, Vice Chairman of DHG Group and Chief Executive Officer of DHG Properties, said the integration of development and management operations represents the company's next phase of growth in the UAE.
He explained that extending services beyond handover would allow DHG to support homeowners over the longer term.
Following the initial launch at Helvetia Residences, the services will be progressively introduced at the developer's projects in Meydan Horizon and Dubai Islands as they approach completion.
These include Helvetia Verde and Helvetia Marine.
The expansion reflects a growing emphasis on post-handover services as Dubai's residential market continues to mature.
For DHG, the new platform establishes a direct connection between residential development, property management and rental operations, extending the company's role throughout the ownership lifecycle.
