Find your home in Dubai

Start by defining your budgetand choosing your preferred location. Once you have a clear financial plan, engage a licensed real estate agent to gain access to market listings and professional guidance throughout the process.

Off plan properties are purchased directly from developers during construction, often with attractive payment plans. Ready properties are existing homes purchased from owners, requiring immediate full payment or mortgage financing.

Once a property is selected, you submit a Letter of Intent (LOI) to formalize your offer. Upon price agreement, both parties sign the Memorandum of Understanding (MOU/Form F) and you pay the security deposit (usually 10%).

The process involves obtaining a No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the developer, followed by an official transfer at the Dubai Land Department (DLD) office. There, the Title Deed is issued in your name, and you receive the keys and handle utility (DEWA) transfers.

When you buy a property in Off Plan, you don't pay any commission because it is 0%. Aside from the READY property price, budget an extra 7% to 8% for transaction costs. This includes the 4% DLD fee, (secondary market) only 2% agency commission, and various registration and valuation charges.
