Selling Property FAQs

You can list your property with us by contacting our team. We will assess your property, help you set the right price, market it to potential buyers, and guide you through the legal process until the sale is completed.
You will need the following:
•Title deed
•Emirates ID or passport (for non-residents)
•No Objection Certificate (NOC) from the developer
•Proof of mortgage clearance (if applicable)
•Sales agreement and other relevant property documents

Our experts analyze market trends, location, property condition, and recent sales in your area to recommend a competitive price that attracts buyers while maximizing your returns.

 

The timeframe varies based on market demand, pricing, and property condition. Typically, it can take anywhere from a few weeks to several months. Well-priced and well-marketed properties sell faster.
