Step 1: value your property
Check actual completed transactions in your building on the DLD website (dubailand.gov.ae — Transactions section). Compare with active listings on Bayut and Property Finder. Base your price on real transactions rather than asking prices.
Step 2: prepare your documents
- Original Title Deed
- Owner passport copy
- NOC from developer or building management
- No Objection Certificate confirming no outstanding charges
Step 3: choose an agent
Your agent must be RERA registered. Seller commission: 2% of sale price. A good agent provides professional photography and lists on all major platforms.
Step 4: transaction and registration
Sign the MOU (Memorandum of Understanding). Buyer pays 10% deposit. Obtain NOC from developer (2–4 weeks). Register the transaction at DLD — transfer fee of 4% is paid by the buyer.
