Get a realistic valuation
Price against recent DLD transactions in your building, not against asking prices. A free valuation from Jet Horizon combines transaction data with current demand so your listing attracts serious buyers in the first weeks.
Prepare your documents
Title deed, passport and Emirates ID, a service-charge clearance from the developer and, if mortgaged, the bank liability letter. Check whether the unit is tenanted: tenants keep their rights under the existing contract.
Sign the listing agreement (Form A)
Form A is the RERA agreement between you and your broker. It allows the agency to obtain a Trakheesi advertising permit, which every legal listing must display.
Market the property
Professional photos, video and a sharp description make the difference. We list on the major portals, push the unit to our buyer database and run targeted campaigns in English and Arabic.
Agree the deal and sign Form F
When you accept an offer, both parties sign the MOU (Form F) setting the price, timeline and conditions. The buyer’s 10% security cheque is held by the brokerage.
NOC and transfer
Apply for the developer NOC, clear any mortgage, then complete the transfer at a DLD Trustee Office, where you receive payment by manager’s cheque.

Frequently asked questions
Do I need to be in Dubai to sell?
No. You can appoint a representative through a notarised power of attorney and complete the transfer remotely.
Can I sell a property that is still mortgaged?
Yes. The bank issues a liability letter, the outstanding amount is settled from the buyer’s funds at transfer and the mortgage is released the same day.
Can I sell a tenanted property?
Yes. The tenancy transfers with the property, and the new owner must honour the existing Ejari contract until it ends.
Is there capital gains tax on property in Dubai?
Individuals currently pay no capital gains tax on property sales in Dubai. If you are non-resident, check the tax rules in your home country.
