Frequently Asked Questions

What is LTV and why does it matter?
Loan-to-Value (LTV) is the ratio of loan to property value. For American Non-Residents, the maximum is 55%. A higher LTV means a smaller down payment but higher monthly payments and more interest.
Can I get a mortgage as a non-resident?
Non-residents can access mortgages, but with stricter requirements and lower LTV (typically 50–60%). Verify with your chosen bank for current terms.
What are the typical interest rates?
Indicative rates for American Non-Residents range from 4.25% to 5.85% per annum. These are ILLUSTRATIVE ONLY and vary by bank, creditworthiness and market conditions. Always request a formal quote from your lender.
How long does mortgage approval take?
Typically 5–10 days for pre-approval (if documentation is complete) and 2–3 weeks for final approval. Processing times vary by bank and loan complexity.
What are the hidden costs?
Common costs include: processing fee (AED 1,500–3,500), valuation fee (0.25–0.5% of property), insurance (0.5–1% per annum) and registration (4% of property value). Always request a full fee schedule from your bank.
Can I pay off the mortgage early?
Yes, most lenders allow early settlement. Some charge a small penalty (waived after 1–2 years). Confirm the early settlement policy with your bank before committing.
