Dubai Holding Real Estate and CBD Launch new home financing programme

Dubai: Dubai Holding Real Estate has partnered with Commercial Bank of Dubai (CBD) to launch a new home financing programme for eligible customers purchasing properties across Nakheel, Meraas and Dubai Properties.The programme is available to UAE nationals and residents, including salaried and self-employed buyers acquiring qualified off-plan and completed villas and apartments from Dubai Holding Real Estate’s portfolio.It has been designed to provide a smoother and more transparent path to home ownership, offering preferential rates, competitive fee structures, faster digital onboarding, dedicated relationship management, and access to selected premium banking benefits.The programme provides both conventional and Islamic financing options, subject to eligibility and approval, expanding customer choice across the UAE market.It also features digital pre-approval supported by automated eligibility assessment, enabling customers to gain early clarity on their borrowing capacity and proceed more efficiently through the financing process.A key feature of the initiative is access to financing from the 30 percent construction stage once buyers have met the 50 percent payment threshold.Khalid Al Malik, Chief Executive Officer of Dubai Holding Real Estate, said the initiative aims to strengthen buyer confidence and support decision-making by leveraging the scale and diversity of the company’s residential portfolio.Dr Bernd van Linder, Chief Executive Officer of CBD, said the partnership simplifies access to home financing through faster pre-approvals, dedicated mortgage support, and streamlined onboarding, contributing to the sustainable growth of Dubai’s real estate market.
