Company profile
researched Sep 2026ViewIT operates a UAE property marketplace built around short video walkthroughs rather than still photographs. Its consumer site lists apartments, villas, townhouses and offices for sale and rent across Dubai neighbourhoods such as Palm Jumeirah, Business Bay, Downtown Dubai, Jumeirah Village Circle, Al Furjan, Dubai Studio City and Dubai Hills, alongside a holiday homes and short-term rental section. Listings are presented as scrollable video cards attributed to named agents and their brokerages, with some carrying a "Viewit Verified" label, and the site also surfaces an "Agent Insights" social feed of agent-posted market commentary.
On the supply side, the company offers a "Viewit For Agents" mobile app that compresses listing creation into a mobile workflow: the agent visits the property, enters details, generates a listing description with an AI description generator, uploads up to six videos of up to three minutes each, geo-tags the listing and adds a thumbnail. The company positions this as a replacement for the desktop-and-CRM listing process, and describes itself as an end-to-end solution addressing both agent listing effort and buyer demand for verified, immersive property viewing.
The website additionally exposes a property valuations tool, a location-based and AI search mode marked beta, and a "Virtual Agent" chatbot covering Dubai and Abu Dhabi that the company says is trained on verified Dubai Land Department data, Google Maps and Dubai real estate law.
Business model
Two-sided property portal: real estate agents and brokerages create video listings through the ViewIT agent app, and consumers browse those listings for sale, rental and short-term stay on the ViewIT site and app.
Agent-side subscription is indicated by a promotional offer of three months free for agents; specific pricing is not stated.
Traction
The "Viewit For Agents" Android app has more than 1,000 downloads and was last updated in November 2024. Live listings on the site come from multiple Dubai brokerages including RealCo Capital Real Estate, Highgate Homes Real Estate, House 2 Home Real Estate Properties, Bay Point Real Estate, Ura Homes Real Estate, Real Stay Vacation Home Rental and 18Bricks Holiday Homes.
Latest developments
Founder Farhan Junaid appeared in a Dubai AI Festival 2025 interview. The company states its iOS and Android apps are being upgraded with new features and is offering agents three months free, and the website carries beta AI search and virtual agent tools.
