What is Real Estate Transaction Support?

Real estate transaction support refers to the professional assistance offered during a property purchase or sale. In Dubai, this includes:

  • Handling payments and transfer of ownership
  • Document verification (title deed, sales agreement, ownership history)
  • Legal compliance (Dubai Land Department registration, RERA regulations)
  • Negotiation assistance with buyers, sellers, or brokers
  • Finalizing MOUs (Memorandum of Understanding) and contracts

Why is it Important in Dubai?

 

Dubai’s property market is regulated by local authorities like the Dubai Land Department (DLD) and Real Estate Regulatory Agency (RERA). The rules are strict, and processes can vary between freehold and leasehold areas.

Having transaction support helps you:

  • Avoid legal errors or delays
  • Understand what documents are required and when
  • Prevent disputes or overpayments
  • Save time and stress

This service is ideal for:

  • First-time buyers unfamiliar with the Dubai market

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. What are the steps to complete a real estate transaction in Dubai?

A typical transaction involves signing a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU), obtaining a No Objection Certificate (NOC), paying fees to the Dubai Land Department (DLD), and finalizing the title deed transfer. Working with a trusted advisor ensures every step is handled smoothly.

2. Do I need a lawyer for a property transaction in Dubai?

While not mandatory, hiring a lawyer or a licensed real estate advisory firm adds legal protection and clarity — especially for first-time buyers or foreign investors.

3. How much are the transaction fees at Dubai Land Department?

DLD typically charges 4% of the property value as a registration fee, along with a small admin fee. Other costs may include NOC, trustee fees, and agent commissions.

4. Can foreigners buy property in Dubai without a broker?

Yes, foreigners can buy in designated freehold areas without a broker. However, using a broker or advisory firm simplifies the process, reduces risks, and helps with negotiation and compliance.
