*Lowest advertised salary-transfer rate in the bank rate cards published on mortgease.ae, which cover most but not all banks on our panel, as at 21 September 2026. Introductory rate: fixed for an initial period only, usually between 1 and 5 years depending on the bank and product, then it reverts to a variable rate, usually the bank's margin over an EIBOR benchmark and often with a minimum rate (floor) set in the offer letter. “From” is the lowest advertised tier and needs the bank's criteria to be met, such as income, loan-to-value, the property and, where it applies, salary transfer. Your rate is confirmed only in the lender's written offer. Most applicants are priced above the lowest advertised tier.

Maximum LTV shown is the CBUAE limit for an expatriate buying a first, completed home under AED 5 million; for UAE nationals it is 85%. Limits are lower above AED 5 million, for second homes and for off-plan (50%). The CBUAE regulation sets limits by nationality and by first home or investment property, not by residency; each bank sets its own non-resident criteria within those limits.

Common questions

Straight answers on UAE mortgages.

Still unsure? Ask on WhatsApp and an advisor replies.

Ask on WhatsApp
Do I pay Mortgease anything?

There is no Mortg Ease client brokerage fee. The lender pays us on completion. Bank, valuation, government registration, trustee, insurance and any agency costs still apply.

How much deposit do I need?

For a first home, expatriate residents need at least 20% below AED 5 million and UAE nationals 15% up to AED 5 million. Above AED 5 million it is 30% and 25%, more for a second home, and 50% for off-plan. The CBUAE regulation does not set a separate non-resident limit, and each bank can ask for a larger deposit. In Dubai, also budget for the DLD transfer fee (4% of the price, in practice the buyer usually pays all of it) and mortgage registration at 0.25% of the loan plus AED 290.

Can I get a mortgage if I'm self-employed?

Often, yes. Lenders differ widely on how they assess business income, so we look for the banks whose criteria fit your business.

How long does approval take?

An advisor responds within 24 hours on working days. Bank conditional pre-approval typically takes 3 to 5 working days after complete documents, subject to lender checks.

Can I buy from outside the UAE?

Yes. Several UAE banks lend to non-residents, usually with a lower loan-to-value. Much of the process can be handled remotely; whether anyone must attend in person depends on the bank and the transfer.

Is an advertised rate an offer?

No. Advertised rates are a starting point. Pricing depends on your income, residency, property and term, and your rate is confirmed only in the lender's written offer.
