Can a broker in the UAE sell property located in India in the UAE?

Dear Questioner,

In 2017, Dubai Land Department (DLD) has issued a set of rules governing how brokers can sell overseas properties in the emirate.

As per the said rules, the developer who is selling overseas property in Dubai shall have the following documents:-

1. a permit for marketing them in Dubai.

2. property’s title deed

3. a letter from the country in question describing the method of foreign property ownership,

4. an agreement between the owner and the broker representing them,

5. a copy of the property certification from the UAE Embassy and the Foreign Ministry that has been translated into Arabic by a legal translator.

DLD has the right to impose fines on such brokers who sell an overseas property without such documentation.

You may raise your complaint with RERA.
