How the figures work
DLD charges 4% of the price plus about AED 580 for the title deed and map. The trustee office charges AED 4,200 including VAT, or AED 2,100 below AED 500,000. On a resale the buyer’s agent takes 2% plus 5% VAT; off-plan from the developer there is no commission and no trustee fee. With a mortgage, DLD registers the loan at 0.25% of the amount plus about AED 290.
