Mortgage in the UAE: questions and answers

The essentials to know before you apply.

Yes. Several UAE banks lend to non-residents, usually financing up to 50–60% of the property value with a shorter bank list than for residents. Residents with an Emirates ID can typically borrow up to 80% of a ready first home under AED 5M.

For expat residents — 20% of the price for a first ready home under AED 5M, and 30% above that. UAE nationals start from 15%. Off-plan purchases are financed differently: banks usually ask for around 50%.

Passport and Emirates ID with a residence visa, 3–6 months of bank statements, and a salary certificate or proof of business income. Non-residents provide a passport, proof of income and statements from their home bank.

A fixed rate stays unchanged for an initial period, usually 1–5 years, then switches to a variable rate tied to EIBOR. Fixed means predictable payments; variable can be cheaper when rates fall. Most UAE offers combine the two.

Plan for roughly 6–8% on top of the down payment: 4% DLD transfer fee, 2% agency fee plus VAT, 0.25% mortgage registration, a bank valuation of about AED 2,500–3,500, plus trustee office and title deed fees.

Pre-approval usually takes 2–5 working days and holds your budget for 60–90 days. From choosing the property to the final transfer, a mortgage purchase typically completes in 2–4 weeks.
