Dubai Holding Real Estate has entered into partnership with Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank to expand access to Sharia-compliant home financing solutions for eligible customers across the developer’s residential portfolio.
The partnership introduces a comprehensive dual-track Islamic financing framework covering both off-plan and completed residential properties, aimed at making homeownership more accessible while enhancing the customer experience across Dubai’s fast-growing real estate market.
Under the agreement, qualifying buyers will gain access to tailored Sharia-compliant home financing solutions with competitive profit rates and flexible repayment terms of up to 25 years.
The structure is designed to support customers purchasing off-plan properties as well as completed homes ready for handover.
The financing model for off-plan projects aligns payment schedules with construction milestones, offering buyers greater flexibility, transparency, and financial clarity throughout the ownership journey.
The initiative is expected to strengthen confidence among homebuyers and investors seeking structured entry into Dubai’s expanding off-plan property segment.
The collaboration further expands Dubai Holding Real Estate’s growing suite of customer-focused financing solutions across its major brands, including Nakheel, Meraas, and Dubai Properties.
It also reflects the company’s broader strategy to simplify homeownership pathways and reinforce Dubai’s position as one of the world’s leading destinations for real estate investment and residential living.
