Buying in Asharij, Al Ain: rules and costs

• Ownership

  The rules for a specific Asharij home depend on its title and the buyer’s eligibility. Abu Dhabi law permits non UAE nationals to acquire property rights in designated investment areas, but that general rule does not establish that every Asharij property is eligible. Confirm the rules for the particular home with an advisor.

• Sale registration

  ADREC’s registration rules let the Executive Committee set the sale registration fee within 1% to 4%. Seller and buyer each bear half, unless their agreement specifies a different division. The agreed price and title documents are relevant to the registration process.

• Off plan and escrow

  An off plan purchase is made before completion, with the payment schedule set out in the sale contract. ADREC requires dispositions of units sold off plan to be recorded in the initial register and project payments to go into the project escrow account. Its listed initial register sale fee is 2%, split equally between seller and buyer, capped at AED 2,000,000 per transaction. These are general rules, not evidence of a current Asharij launch.

• Mortgage

  A mortgage adds lender approval and a valuation to the buying process. The lender assesses the property as well as the applicant, and the available loan depends on the buyer’s circumstances and the bank’s terms. A Down Payment and the costs of arranging finance should be considered alongside the purchase price.

• Golden Visa

  ICP offers real estate investors a 10 year Golden Residency when they fully own one or more UAE properties worth at least AED 2,000,000 in total and registered in their name. A property financed by an approved local bank qualifies, as do off-plan units worth at least AED 2,000,000 in total bought from an approved developer. ICP decides each application.

• Service charges

  A home in a jointly managed building may carry charges for maintaining shared areas and facilities. These costs belong in the ownership budget alongside the purchase and any financing costs. The latest statement for the particular property is more useful than applying a general figure to every home.
