So if the total cost of a house is AED 300,000, an expat will have to cough up AED 75000 upfront; that&#8217;s a lot so make sure you have the cash before finalizing a deal. And if the property value is greater than AED 5 million, then the down payment increases to 35% for expats and 30% for UAE nationals.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Apart from the property cost, there are multiple fees to take care of like:&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>The mortgage registration fee of 0.25%.<\/li><li>Transfer tax 2%<\/li><li>Property valuation fee paid to the bank, AED 2500 &#8211; AED 3000, plus 5% value-added tax.<\/li><li>Dubai Land Department fee of 4%, plus an additional AED 580 admin fee.<\/li><li>Real estate agent commission of 2% <\/li><li>Property\/Title Deed registration fee, AED 1000 &#8211; 2000&nbsp;<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Applying_for_a_mortgagehome_loan_in_the_UAE\"><\/span>Applying for a mortgage\/home loan in the UAE<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p>There are basically two ways to apply for a home loan in the UAE, either go directly to the bank of your choice or get in touch with a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.propertypistol.com\/broker-service\">property broker<\/a>. Make sure to compare the bank&#8217;s interest rates and minimum salary requirements first. In our opinion, as an expat, you should seek the services of a broker, they already know the local market and will find a bank which suits you the best.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Keep in mind to first get a pre-approval from the bank before going on the hunt; it will provide you with a baseline for negotiation. After that, it&#8217;s pretty straightforward, just choose a mortgage plan, get a mortgage agreement and wait a few weeks for it to process, then the bank will pay the amount in time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Best_banks_for_home_loans_in_the_UAE_for_Expats\"><\/span>Best banks for home loans in the UAE for Expats<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Commercial Bank International (CBI)<\/strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>The minimum monthly salary required is AED 15,000<\/li><li>Processing fee 1% of the loan amount<\/li><li>Interest rates start from 2.99% p.a.<\/li><li>Free property insurance with the home loan.<\/li><li>Salary transfer is optional<\/li><li>No processing fee for buyout loans<\/li><li>Clear 40% of the outstanding loan amount without any partial settlement fees<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>HSBC Bank<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Can clear 25% of the outstanding loan amount without any partial settlement fees<\/li><li>Salary transfer is not required<\/li><li>Can get pre-approved in 60 minutes<\/li><li>Repayments up to 25 Months<\/li><li>Early settlement fee 0-1%<\/li><li>Minimum salary AED 15K-20K<\/li><li>Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank (ADIB)<\/li><li>Salary transfer is optional<\/li><li>6 months grace period is provided for salary transfer customers<\/li><li>Can clear 30% of the outstanding loan amount without any partial settlement fees<\/li><li>The interest rate of 3.75%<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Emirates_NBD\"><\/span><strong>Emirates NBD<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\"><li>Interest rates from 2.49% p.a. <\/li><li>Loan amount of up to AED 15mn.<\/li><li>Reducing interest rate starting from 2.49%* p.a<\/li><li>50% discount on Processing Fees<\/li><li>Loan tenor up to 25 years<\/li><\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Points_to_remember\"><\/span>Points to remember<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Property and life insurance<\/strong> are mandatory in the UAE for a mortgage; you can either get it along with the house or look for a separate policy later. Insurance policies are generally much more affordable in the UAE compared to other countries; it mostly depends on what valuables you have in your house.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The loan\/mortgage market in the UAE is cutthroat, so lenders often change their interest rates to compete with each other. To <strong>change their mortgage provider, <\/strong>people directly contact their banks to ask for a switch; some offer a new plan with a lower rate while others get rid of the fees. However, there is a transfer fee involved when refinancing the mortgage it&#8217;s typically 1% of the loan amount.<strong>&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p style=\"font-size:12px\"><em><strong>Disclaimer:&nbsp;<\/strong>The views expressed above are for informational purposes only based on industry reports and related news stories.
