Read the handover notice
Start with the final amount due, payment deadline, developer statement and any completion requirements. A mortgage should be planned around the actual handover timetable.

Off-Plan Handover Finance in the UAE
Your property is approaching completion. Put the finance, paperwork and timing in place before the developer’s final payment becomes due.
Independent guidance. Lender assessment. Clear next steps.
Who this service is for
For buyers with an off-plan property approaching handover who want to explore mortgage funding for an eligible outstanding balance. A project’s completion stage and lender acceptance are central to the assessment.
What to consider before you apply
Confirm project and property acceptance
Not every lender treats every project or completion stage the same way. Ask about developer approval, valuation access and the documents needed before release of funds.
Allow for valuation and cash differences
Funding is subject to the lender’s approved amount and valuation. Keep funds available for a possible shortfall and applicable fees; do not assume your entire final instalment will be financed.
How we support your journey
- Review the developer balance, due date and project status.
- Check suitable lenders and assemble the required buyer and property documents.
- Coordinate valuation and meet the lender’s approval conditions.
- Confirm disbursement, registration and handover arrangements with the relevant parties.
Common questions
When should I start arranging handover finance?
Start before the final payment deadline. An advisor can assess the timeline once the developer’s expected completion and document availability are known.
Can I use a mortgage while construction is ongoing?
Financing during construction and financing at handover are different assessments. Availability depends on the project, stage and lender. Confirm your specific case before relying on funding.
What if handover is delayed?
Tell your advisor and lender. An approval or offer may expire and require updated documents, a fresh assessment or revised terms.
