Mortgage Registration

01

What It Means

Mortgage registration is the official recording of the lender's mortgage against the property with the relevant land authority, such as the DLD in Dubai.

02

Why It Matters

Registration legally perfects the lender's charge over the property. A registration fee applies, and the mortgage is reflected on the title record. It is a required step between final offer and disbursement.

03

Simple Example

After the final offer is accepted, the property transfer and the mortgage are registered together, the fee is paid, and the lender releases funds.
