Invest in UAE property from anywhere in the world
Buying property in the UAE doesn't always require you to live here. Many UAE banks offer mortgage solutions for eligible international buyers. We compare options from leading UAE lenders and help non-resident buyers navigate the entire process — from your first consultation to property transfer. Our advisory service is completely free.
What is a non-resident mortgage?
A non-resident mortgage is designed for buyers who live outside the UAE but wish to purchase eligible residential property within the country. Depending on the lender and your financial profile, you may be able to finance a percentage of the property's value while paying the remaining amount as your down payment.
A non-resident mortgage can help you:
- Invest in UAE real estate
- Purchase a holiday or second home
- Build an international property portfolio
- Finance an eligible property without paying the full price upfront
