Dubai Mortgages & Finance Options

The Dubai property market has witnessed an unprecedented level of growth and expansion over these past few years. From its initial beginnings not much more that a decade ago, Dubai has firmly established itself as a leading global property market, with an ever increasing range of freehold property to purchase. With the free hold property markets legal framework regarding purchases by overseas buyers now very much transparent and clear, purchasing your own piece of Dubai real estate can easily become a reality. However until relatively recently there was still one last big hurdle for the market place to overcome, and that was mortgages

Previously the situation regarding Dubai mortgages was not so positive, with finance only available via a small number of lenders and banks who offered the mortgages through various developers. However lately the situated has changed for the good. The market place has been opened up to greater competition, the result of which has been a larger number of banks offering a much broader range of financial services to those seeking a mortgage through Dubai real estate agents.

Whereas initially the market place regarding Dubai mortgages was limited to two financiers, Tamweel and Amlak, who were linked to developers Nakheel and Emaar respectively. At this point in time mortgage options were therefore somewhat limited, with not so competitive rates offered, and all requiring sizable down payments to secure a mortgage. With most international banks unable to enter the market, obtaining a mortgage was not such an appealing option to Dubai freehold property buyers.

However, as with most things in this area, it was only a matter of time before change was implemented. The legislation regarding mortgages has now undergone somewhat of a transition, with a wider range of lenders operating within Dubai. The results of which can now be seen through the large range of finance options on offer and more competitive rates available to buyers. This is especially good news for those who previously would have been stuck with renting. With rental prices within Dubai continuing to surpass already crazy levels, the new flexible range of mortgages can allow those currently renting to invest their money in a property of their own, and therefore having something to show for their monthly outgoings.

With both local and international finance options available in the form of RakBank, Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank and HSBC, those seeking a mortgage can rest assured of being able to select a finance option that best suits their situation.

With rental prices showing no sign of slowing, and the freehold property market remaining strong, there has never been a better time to take advantage of the mortgages on offer.
