Dubai South Properties has signed a strategic agreement with Emirates NBD to provide tailored mortgage solutions for eligible buyers purchasing off-plan homes within the master developer's residential projects.

The partnership is designed to improve access to financing by allowing prospective homeowners and investors to explore mortgage options earlier in the buying process. Eligible customers will have access to competitive financing rates and a streamlined approval process, subject to the bank's lending criteria and terms.

Dubai South Properties is currently developing several freehold residential projects within Dubai South, one of Dubai's largest master-planned urban developments centred on aviation, logistics and real estate. The agreement is expected to support demand in the area by giving buyers greater financial flexibility when purchasing off-plan properties.

The Memorandum of Understanding was signed by Shahid Ahmed, Chief Financial Officer at Dubai South, and Rohit Garg, Group Head of Retail Products and Chief Digital Officer of Retail Banking and Wealth Management at Emirates NBD, in the presence of senior representatives from both organisations.

Commenting on the partnership, Ahmed said, “At Dubai South, we remain focused on making the homeownership journey as seamless and accessible as possible for our customers. Our agreement with Emirates NBD will provide eligible buyers with off-plan home financing solutions and greater flexibility as they plan their property investment. This collaboration reflects our commitment to working with leading institutions to support the continued growth of Dubai South's residential communities.”

Garg added, “Emirates NBD is pleased to partner with Dubai South Properties to support the next phase of Dubai's master-planned residential growth. By delivering tailored, flexible mortgage solutions to prospective homeowners, we are empowering customers to make confident investment decisions, while supporting the city's vision of sustainable urban growth and long-term prosperity.”

As Dubai's off-plan market continues to expand, financing is becoming an increasingly important differentiator for developers. Partnerships between developers and banks can reduce uncertainty for buyers by providing earlier access to mortgage options, helping streamline the purchasing process while supporting continued activity in the residential market.
