Residents and non-residents
UAE residents are typically considered at a higher loan-to-value, often from 20% down on a first ready home. Non-residents should plan for a larger deposit, commonly around 40%. We advise both from Business Bay, Dubai.

Ready Property Mortgages in Dubai
Finance for a home that already exists.
A ready-property mortgage in Dubai is used to buy a completed home. The loan follows the bank’s current valuation, and funds are released to the seller on transfer.
A ready property mortgage in Dubai finances a completed home that is available for occupancy. Unlike off-plan, the bank underwrites against its valuation of the unit as it stands, and the loan is paid to the seller at transfer.
A ready property mortgage in Dubai is the standard way to buy a completed apartment or villa. The bank values the home as it stands, sets a loan-to-value against that figure, and releases funds to the seller when registration is complete.
The work is to know your borrowing power before you offer, to choose a lender that fits the property type, and to keep valuation, MOU or Form F, and transfer in one sequence so nothing stalls in the last week.
Residents buying a first ready home are often considered from a 20% deposit. Non-residents should usually plan for around 40%. Exact figures depend on the bank, the building, and the rest of the file. Crelco advises both, independently, with no consultancy fee.

How it works
The file, in order.
What the bank will look at
Income, liabilities, debt-burden ratio, the property’s title and valuation, and whether the file is complete. A clean submission is faster than a perfect headline rate on a messy one.
MOU and Form F
The contract should match the finance. We review key terms before you commit so the transfer date, deposit, and conditions do not fight the bank’s process.
Transfer
Valuation, offer letter, trustee appointment, and DLD registration are sequenced so funds and keys arrive together. Crelco stays on the file until completion.
