Your cost on the day, and the home in 5 years
Put in a price. The figures use the same costs and rate as every BUY DUBAI calculator (listed under it), and for a mortgage a 80% loan over 25 years. Change the market figure to see the home if prices fall, stay flat or rise.
Assumptions, the same in every BUY DUBAI calculator: rate 3.99% a year, the most common 3-year fixed rate in two bank comparison lists dated 5 October 2026; repayment loan over 25 years; Land Department fee 4% of the price plus AED 580; trustee office AED 4,200 (AED 2,100 under AED 500,000); agent 2% plus 5% VAT; with a loan: mortgage registration 0.25% of the loan plus AED 290, bank fee 1% of the loan plus VAT (it differs by bank), valuation AED 3,150.
