Useful notes for buyers
The buyer should see a recent Property Certificate (Ifada Iqariya) to make sure there are no legal or financial claims on the property (such as pending lawsuits, unpaid taxes, alignment regulations, or new zoning regulations).
Sanad Tamlik describes the property and defines its ownership.
After signing the sales contract, it is the buyer’s responsibility to obtain an official Rental Valuation (Qima Ta’jiriya) from the Ministry of Finance.
Required Documents:
• Ownership or Title Deed (Sanad Tamlik)
• Unit Property Certificate (Ifada Iqariya lil Qism)
• Property Certificate for the common areas (Ifada Iqariya lil Aqsam al Mushtaraka)
• Allotment Map (Kharitat Ifraz)
• Survey Map (Kharitat Masaha)
• Building’s Ownership Regulations (Nizam Melkiyeh)
Properties under construction
The construction of residential buildings needs about 3 years. Apartments can be purchased at any time during the construction period, even off plan.
A sales contract is signed between the developer and the buyer and stands for proof of purchase. It usually regulates the duties and responsibilities of each party throughout construction and until delivery of finished apartment.
Payments are normally distributed over five to ten installments, in tandem with the construction stages or tied to set dates. This varies from developer to developer.
The last payment is usually made upon receipt of the Ownership Deed (Sanad Tamlik).
The Ownership Deed is generally issued about 6 months after the completion of construction works. Until then, the apartment remains the property of the developer.
