Mortgage Finance is a high value, long term financial decision and we understand that you will be incurring more than 7% of the property purchase price as transaction costs. Hence, we have priced our services nominally so we create a win - win situation. This keeps our team members motivated to provide the right service quality. We also run promotions from time to time, so we request you to please call and check for the latest offers. Given our hands on experience from within Mortgage Banking Industry, we do bring in a lot of value by helping you take an informed long-term financial decision.

Yes, you can. In fact, we recommend that you should get a Pre-Approval based on your current financial position, so you are clear with your property purchase budget before you start looking for properties.

The cost of obtaining Pre Approval is nominal and varies from bank to bank. We can help you with the best possible Pre Approval offers in the UAE mortgage market. The Pre Approvals normally have the validity of two to three months. In case, you don't utilize your Pre Approval within the validity period, you lose the nominal Pre Approval Fee. If you are able to identify the ideal property for your requirement within the Pre Approval validity period, your Pre Approval Fee gets adjusted against your Final Approval Fee.

We are business partners with trusted / licensed real estate brokerage companies, further, our expertise will be instrumental in guiding you to choose the best property within your budget.
