Why move your mortgage to Commercial Bank of Dubai?

A mortgage buyout (balance transfer) moves your existing home loan to a new bank at better terms. Commercial Bank of Dubai is one of the banks we arrange buyouts with. Because the property doesn’t change hands, there is no 4% DLD transfer fee — the main cost people fear simply doesn’t apply.

What switching could save — worked example

On an AED 1.5M balance with 20 years left, moving from a legacy 4.99% to Commercial Bank of Dubai’s advertised 3.99% (salary transfer, 3-yr fixed) cuts the payment by roughly AED 809/month — about AED 9,711 a year. Illustrative maths at advertised rates; we run your exact numbers, free.

What a buyout actually costs

  • Early settlement with your current bank: capped at 1% of the balance or AED 10,000, whichever is lower (UAE-wide rule).
  • Valuation fee at Commercial Bank of Dubai: AED 3,150 (some promotions refund it — we confirm).
  • Mortgage release & re-registration: release ~AED 1,290; new registration 0.25% of the loan + AED 290.
  • No DLD 4% transfer fee — ownership doesn’t change.

We calculate your break-even month before you commit — if the switch doesn’t pay for itself, we’ll tell you.

CBD buyout FAQs

Do I pay the 4% DLD fee when switching to Commercial Bank of Dubai?
No. A buyout transfers the loan, not the property, so the DLD transfer fee doesn’t apply. The main costs are early settlement (capped at 1% / AED 10,000), the valuation fee and re-registration.
What buyout rate will Commercial Bank of Dubai give me?
Advertised fixed rates currently start from 3.99% (see table above). Your exact buyout pricing depends on profile, LTV and salary transfer — we confirm it with Commercial Bank of Dubai for you, free.
How long does a buyout to Commercial Bank of Dubai take?
Typically 3–6 weeks end to end: approval, property valuation, settlement of the old loan and re-registration. Mortgease coordinates every step.
Is Commercial Bank of Dubai my best buyout option?
Maybe — that’s the point of using a broker. We compare Commercial Bank of Dubai against 15+ UAE banks on the same day and only recommend the switch if the break-even genuinely works for you.
