Non-Resident Mortgages in the UAE

Buy property in Dubai and the UAE from overseas — financing compared across lenders, commission-free.

You don't need a UAE residence visa to get a mortgage here. A growing number of banks lend to non-residents buying in Dubai and across the UAE, typically up to 50–60% loan-to-value with documents from your home country. Rates are a little higher than resident products and the eligible bank list is shorter — which is exactly where comparing pays off. We match you to the lenders that say yes.

Frequently asked questions

How much deposit do I need as a non-resident?
Usually 40–50% of the property value, versus 20% for residents. We confirm the exact figure for the banks open to your profile.
What documents do I need from abroad?
Typically your passport, proof of income, bank statements and sometimes a credit report from your home country. We give you a precise checklist upfront.
