Can the self-employed get a Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank mortgage?
Yes — business owners, partners and freelancers can finance property through Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank (structured as Sharia-compliant home finance). Self-employed files are assessed differently from salaried ones: banks look at your trade licence history (typically 2+ years), audited financials or bank statements, and apply an income haircut of roughly 20–40% to smooth variable earnings. Positioning the file correctly is most of the battle — that’s our job.
