Frequently Asked Questions
How much can I borrow for a home loan in Dubai as an expat?
Under current Central Bank of the UAE rules, expats can typically borrow up to 80% loan-to-value (LTV) on a first property priced at or below AED 5 million (85% for UAE nationals). A second or subsequent property is usually capped around 60-65% LTV, and off-plan purchases are generally limited to about 50%. A broker confirms the exact figure for your case.
Is Hateem Mortgage free to use?
The firm offers a free consultation. As an independent broker it is generally paid commission by the lender, so clients are advised on options across multiple banks without an upfront broker fee.
Can a non-resident get a mortgage in the UAE through Hateem?
Yes. The brokerage specifically arranges non-resident / overseas-buyer mortgages, in addition to resident home loans. Non-residents typically face lower LTV caps and a narrower lender pool, which the broker helps navigate.
What is the Debt Burden Ratio (DBR) and how does it affect approval?
Under Central Bank rules, total monthly debt repayments (including the new mortgage) are generally capped at 50% of your monthly income. This DBR limit, alongside your income and existing liabilities, determines the maximum loan a bank will approve.
What fees should I budget for besides the deposit?
Typical costs include mortgage registration at the Dubai Land Department (0.25% of the loan amount plus AED 290), a property valuation fee (commonly around AED 2,500-3,500), and a bank arrangement fee (often about 1% of the loan). Lenders also generally require life and property insurance. Figures are general market guidance, not the firm's pricing.
Can Hateem help me refinance or switch banks for a better rate?
Yes. The brokerage handles mortgage refinancing and bank buyouts, comparing current offers to see whether moving your loan to another lender could reduce your rate or monthly payment.
How long is a mortgage pre-approval valid?
In the UAE a mortgage pre-approval is typically valid for around 60 days. If you have not completed a purchase within that window, the bank usually needs to refresh the approval.
