Why move your mortgage to Dubai Islamic Bank?

A mortgage buyout (balance transfer) moves your existing home loan to a new bank at better terms. Dubai Islamic Bank is one of the banks we arrange buyouts with — structured as Sharia-compliant home finance. 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 Dubai Islamic Bank’s advertised 3.95% (salary transfer, 3-yr fixed) cuts the payment by roughly AED 841/month — about AED 10,090 a year. Illustrative maths at advertised profit 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 Dubai Islamic Bank: AED 2,625 (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.

Dubai Islamic Bank buyout FAQs

Do I pay the 4% DLD fee when switching to Dubai Islamic Bank?
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 profit rate will Dubai Islamic Bank give me?
Advertised fixed profit rates currently start from 3.95% (see table above). Your exact buyout pricing depends on profile, LTV and salary transfer — we confirm it with Dubai Islamic Bank for you, free.
How long does a buyout to Dubai Islamic Bank take?
Typically 3–6 weeks end to end: approval, property valuation, settlement of the old loan and re-registration. Mortgease coordinates every step.
Is Dubai Islamic Bank my best buyout option?
Maybe — that’s the point of using a broker. We compare Dubai Islamic Bank against 15+ UAE banks on the same day and only recommend the switch if the break-even genuinely works for you.
