So you’ve decided to sell a property, it could be your current home or an investment one. Either way, you’re ultimate goal is to set a high selling price (in line with current market rates) and go through the sale process in a fast and easy manner. 

To do both, you must first make sure that all your documentation is up to date, ready and by your side before you put up the For Sale board. Here is a list of all the documents you need to have in place before listing your property for sale:

1. Personal Documents

The first and most important of all documents are your personal documents. UAE residents must have a valid passport, resident visa and Emirates ID, updated with your latest information. Whereas non-residents must only have their passport is up to date and valid.

2. Updated Title Deed On Dubai Rest App

To sell your property, you need to have an updated Title Deed. This is an important step, as some landlords who bought their properties a few years back will need to update their title deed to the new format which is listed on the Dubai Rest App with an updated QR code.

The Dubai Rest App is a smart platform that is designed for all Real Estate transactions across Dubai. Once you download the app, you can upload all your contact information and documents related to your property that facilitates the sale.

Another crucial factor is updating all your personal information on the Dubai Rest App. You wouldn’t want all your approval mails to be going to the wrong address or number?

3. Non-Objection Certificate From The Developers And Dubai Municipality

Before selling your home, a signed NOC is needed for all the work you’ve done in your house; extensions, upgrades, and any other changes done must be approved via the Developer and the Dubai Municipality.

Getting your NOC can be a time-consuming process, so it’s always best to get these documents and approvals ready before you list your villa for sale. It also helps you get the best price for your sale

4. Receipts Of Any Updates And Modifications

To keep the value of your property at the best possible sale price, collect all and any receipts that you have accumulated over the years of any upgrades done to the house; this includes flooring, bathroom, kitchen, garden and maintenance, which can add value to your property during the time of your valuation.

If you’re looking at embarking on a journey of selling your property, we hope these documents have given you a bit of understanding of what you need to gather before you start. We also offer free market appraisals on your property to help you list the best price for your villa.
