About

HSBC is one of the world's largest banking and financial services organisations, and their UAE mortgage division is a major player in Dubai's home loan market. As a direct lender with a global footprint, HSBC is particularly well-positioned for international buyers, expatriates, and non-residents who value the continuity of banking with an institution they may already use in their home country.

HSBC's mortgage team in the UAE provides dedicated advisory through specialist mortgage consultants who guide applicants from Approval in Principle through to final disbursement. Their competitive rate offerings and strong service reputation make them a consistent choice for mid-to-high-value property purchases.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the maximum I can borrow for a home loan in the UAE?

Under current Central Bank rules, expat residents can typically borrow up to 80% LTV on a first property priced at or below AED 5 million (85% for UAE nationals), with lower caps on second or off-plan properties. HSBC states non-resident buyers can borrow up to 60% of the property value. Your actual limit depends on the bank's assessment.

Can I get an HSBC mortgage if I do not live in the UAE?

Yes. HSBC offers non-resident / international home loans for overseas buyers investing in UAE property. You generally need to be an HSBC Premier or Private Bank customer, or be eligible for such an account.

Is HSBC a mortgage broker or a bank?

HSBC is a bank and direct lender — it lends its own home-loan products rather than comparing offers across multiple banks like an independent broker.

What is the difference between the fixed-rate and the EIBOR variable home loan?

The fixed-rate home loan locks your interest rate and monthly repayment for 1, 2, 3 or 5 years, after which it moves to a variable rate. The variable 3-month EIBOR home loan tracks the 3-month EIBOR plus the HSBC margin and is reviewed every three months.

Can I make overpayments on my HSBC home loan?

HSBC allows overpayment of up to 25% of the outstanding balance during the fixed period, which can help reduce the term or interest paid.

What fees apply when taking out a mortgage in the UAE?

In addition to bank arrangement fees (typically around 1% of the loan, bank-dependent), buyers usually pay mortgage registration at the Dubai Land Department of 0.25% of the loan amount plus AED 290, and a property valuation fee. Lenders generally also require life and property insurance.

How long does it take to arrange an HSBC home loan?

An Approval in Principle averages around 60 minutes, and HSBC states the full home loan arrangement usually takes up to around 14 working days.
