What it means for borrowers
- Premium pricing just became harder to reach. The salary bar rises 25% (AED 40K → 50K/month) and the minimum loan jumps to AED 3.5M — a meaningful share of borrowers who qualified for Mashreq’s sharpest tier last week no longer do.
- Standard-tier borrowers pay ~AED 200–220/month more per AED 1.5M borrowed at 4.49% vs 4.25% — and at that level, several banks price sharper: verified fixed rates currently start at 3.75–3.99% elsewhere.
- Already pre-approved with Mashreq? Your old pricing holds, but only within the 30-day validity window — no extensions. If your property hunt is running long, act before the letter lapses.
