Procedures
The procedures for selling real estate in Dubai are straightforward for the most part.
- Buyer and seller agree terms
- A Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) is signed and a deposit (usually 10%) is paid.
- The parties meet at the offices of the developer to apply for a No Objection Certificate (‘NOC’) to sell the property. The developer will usually issue the NOC against a payment of a fee once the developer is satisfied that any amount due to the developer in the form of service charges have been settled in full.
- Once the NOC is issued, the partied are able to go to the office of the Dubai Land Department to officially transfer ownership. The Dubai Land Department will insist on payment of the purchase price being made in the form of a manager’s cheque made payable to the seller on the date of transfer. Once formalities are completed, a new title deed will be issued in the name of the buyer.
If the buyer is purchasing with a mortgage then the bank’s involvement will be required. If the seller has a mortgage on the property the buyer is required to settle the seller’s mortgage in full prior to the NOC application. This increases the risk for the buyer and means the transaction is more complicated.
