How off-plan buying works
From reservation to keys in five steps.
The steps are always in this order. I handle the paperwork at each one and send you a summary before you sign.
- 01
Reserve
Pay the booking amount, usually 10–20%, into the project’s escrow account. Never to a personal account.
Week 1 - 02
Sign the SPA
The sale and purchase agreement fixes the price, plan and handover date. I mark every clause that matters.
Weeks 1–3 - 03
Register Oqood
The DLD records your unit. The 4% transfer fee is paid at this stage, not at handover.
Within 30 days - 04
Pay by milestone
Instalments fall due as construction reaches set stages. I send you the site photos at each one.
During construction - 05
Snag & hand over
We inspect the finished unit together, list the defects and make sure they’re fixed before you take the keys.

Mortgage at handover
Financing the final payment.
Most buyers take a mortgage for the handover balance. Banks lend on ready homes, so this applies at completion.
Minimum deposit for this price and buyer: 20%.
