Frequently Asked Questions

WHAT DOES OFF-PLAN MEAN?

An off-plan property refers to a property where the construction is yet to begin or property that is only in the preliminary stages of construction.

In most cases, purchasing off-plan means you typically get a better deal for the property, as property values tend to increase as projects approach completion date.
 

WHAT IS A FREEHOLD PROPERTY?

The purchase of property on a freehold basis means that the property is registered in the owner’s name by way of a Title Deed registered in the Dubai Land Department. The owner has the right to sell, lease or rent his/her property at his/her discretion.

Areas for freehold properties are designated areas for expatriates, whereas non- freehold property is property limited to UAE Nationals and GCC Nationals. A 2 year residency visa is granted for properties above AED 1,000,000.

WHAT IS A DLD WAIVER?

A DLD Waiver is the waiver of the DLD fee that is levied on property purchase.

The DLD Fee is 4% of the property value and is payable by the buyer. Ergo a DLD Waiver means the buyer does not pay this fee and it is instead paid by the developer.

CAN I SELL AN OFF-PLAN PROPERTY BEFORE ITS COMPLETION DATE?

To be able to sell the off-plan property in Dubai before it’s completed, investors must meet certain conditions.

These criteria are usually set by the developer of the off-plan project.

Most developers require owners to have 30-40% of the cost paid off before it can be sold to a new owner. This value can vary from developer to developer, so if you plan to sell off-plan property in Dubai before completion, make sure to confirm with the developer you are working with before making the sale.

Eligibility to re-sell an off-plan property can also depend on other terms set in the contract by the developer.

WHAT FEES ARE APPLICABLE WHEN BUYING A HOUSE?

DLD Fees 4% + Admin fees 580 AED + Agency Fees 2% + 5% VAT + Trustee Fees including VAT + 10% Deposit
