Why move your mortgage to Emirates Islamic?
A mortgage buyout (balance transfer) moves your existing home loan to a new bank at better terms. Emirates Islamic 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 Emirates Islamic’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 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 Emirates Islamic: 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.
