Equity Release in the UAE

Unlock cash from a property you already own — for investment, renovation or liquidity. Compared across banks, commission-free.

Equity release — a cash-out remortgage — lets you borrow against the value your UAE property has already built up, turning equity into usable cash for a new investment, renovation, business or simple liquidity, while you keep the home. Banks typically lend up to 80% of current value, less what you still owe. We compare lenders to get you the most cash at the sharpest rate.

Frequently asked questions

How much equity can I release?
Usually up to 80% of your property's current market value, minus your outstanding mortgage balance. A fresh valuation sets the figure — we arrange it.
What can I use the released cash for?
Almost anything — buying another property, renovations, business capital, investments or general liquidity. Most products carry no restriction on use.
Do I need to have paid off my mortgage first?
No. You can release equity even with an existing mortgage — we either top it up or refinance to a new lender for the best overall deal.
Is released equity taxable in the UAE?
The UAE has no personal income tax, so released equity is not taxed locally. Always confirm your own position with a tax adviser for any overseas obligations.
