Claiming refund from the cancelled real estate projects committee

I have a 2 BED room apartment and the project is on hold for a very long time.

According to the Dubai land department, the project is going to be canceled and my money is stuck in this.

How can I get the money back?

Dear questioner,

Thanks for writing to me!

From the above short description, I understand that you have already enquired with the land department and confirmed that the project is going to get cancelled.

In that case, please note that the Dubai Land Department (DLD) has established a specialized committee overseeing cancelled development projects, the Cancelled Real Estate Projects Committee.

The committee specializes in the liquidation of real estate projects, which have been cancelled by the Real Estate Regulatory Agency (RERA).

All judgments, orders, and decisions issued by the Committee are final, and cannot be appealed through a regular appeal. Their decisions are executed by the implementation of the Department of Dubai Courts.

Once it is confirmed that the same is cancelled, you may file your claim before the committee.

Hope the above explanation is satisfactory.

Thank You!

Regards,

Rajasree Ravivarma
