Yes, sorry, I did say Estate Agent, but actually meant the complete company ... dust in the wind.
The Police seems to be your best option then.
Just as an update guys!
Thanks Sage for your advise, after threatening with the Police, the landlord turned around and was finally willing to pay back the deposit.
In addition, right out of the blue a guy from OPERA Real Estate called and told us they are closing officially within a month or two and they are now handing over the properties/contracts back to the Landlords...
He told me their GM made a runner with ... 165mill. AED...don't know it that's true, but that's what the guy from Opera told me.
