Question 1

Can I sell off-plan before handover?

Accepted Answer

You can submit an off-plan property, but transfer eligibility must be confirmed with the developer. Check your sale contract, payment statement and any required approvals before promising a completion date. Publishing property details does not itself authorise a transfer.

Question 2

What is a developer NOC and how much must I have paid?

Accepted Answer

A no-objection certificate confirms the developer has no objection to the proposed transaction under its conditions. Do not assume a universal paid-percentage threshold: ask for the current rule for your specific project and contract, together with outstanding balances, fees and certificate validity.

Question 3

What does selling a property in Dubai cost?

Accepted Answer

Budget for the developer NOC, applicable DLD registration and trustee charges, and any mortgage, clearance or agreed professional fees. The DLD sale-registration schedule lists 2% for the seller and 2% for the buyer. Confirm the applicable transaction route, fee allocation and current written quotes before signing.

Question 4

How long does a sale take?

Accepted Answer

There is no guaranteed sale time. Finding a buyer, agreeing terms, developer approvals, mortgage release and document preparation all affect the timetable. The DLD service processing time is not the total time needed to market and complete a property sale.

Question 5

Are my contact details public?

Accepted Answer

Your phone, email and ownership documents are not displayed in public property details. An inquiry may be handled through private messaging or the assigned listing team, as shown on the property page. Share sensitive documents only through the appropriate private channel.

Question 6

Does below original price mean below market value?

Accepted Answer

No. The comparison is with the documented original purchase price, not an independent valuation of the current market. A displayed verified discount does not guarantee a return, a quick sale or that another comparable property cannot cost less.
