  • For self-employed or employed in there home country, individuals must have a minimum daily basis balance of AED40,000 in a personal account in the last three months to qualify for a 60% loan in Dubai and Abu Dhabi.
  • There is also an option of getting a 70% mortgage; however, the requirements are much stricter, and much documentation is required.
  • The bank finances 60% of real estate value, but there should be three months’ bank statements of an individual with a balance showing 10,000 € per month. If the bank statement is approved, the bank can finance up to 2.5 million.
