س: لقد اشتريت فلتين وشقة من مطور عقاري ولم أسدد أي قسط بعد شرائي الأول وجهّزت الفلة الأولى ولم أستلم واليوم علمت أن دائرة الأراضي في دبي شطبت اسمي. هل أسترد أموالي؟ شكرًا!

Q: I booked an off-plan studio in R.E.P. DIP. The developer posts to me the contract to sign. I signed the contract and posted it back to their address. The texture property In Dubai has been dealing and I transferred 10% to reserve the unit in June 2015. I have paid over 30% until the end of Dec 2016. I stopped paying the rest of instalments because after viewing 0% construction report through DLD website and neither developer has provided me Oqood. There is still no construction as per the DLD report for project number 1514. I am considering to get a refund. The total price of the studio is AED 330000. 10% at the outset, 36 equal instalments during construction, 20% on handover and 18 equal instalments after the handover. I have paid 10% and 18 equal instalments out of 36 during the construction as per contract. Total AED 109,973.94 paid: AED 109,973.00 What are the possibilities to get a refund from the developer? How much would it cost?

Q: I have purchased an off-plan property from a Dubai based developer. The project is delayed and not yet completed and the DLD App is showing 85% progress. As per the SPA, handover date is Q2/2018. I've sent 2 delay notices already during the last years, to the developer as per the SPA. The developer verbally informed me that the Building Completion Certificate is planned in November and completion notices due on December 2020. This cannot be trusted as last year they informed the same. Further, the developer's agent is just saying now I can't terminate the SPA since the progress achieved is more than 85% - as per the UAE property Law. This is not in line with the SPA as per my understanding. 40% of the apartment amounts are paid timely and in full together with 4% DLD Fees. Balance 60% is due only at the handover. Currently, I want to terminate the SPA and obtain a full refund. Please advise legally how to take action on this requirement? Thank you and waiting to hear from you.

س: السلام عليكم أستاذي الفاضل، أرجو من حضراتكم تقديم المشورة لي! اشتريت استوديو في مشروع بدبي. المطور تأخر في تسليم المشروع حوالي سنة. أُبلغت أن المشروع سيتم تسليمه في شهر 4/2023. هل يمكنني خصم المبلغ المتبقي للمشروع من المطور؟ أشكرك!

There is an execution against me in the UAE; what should I do? How do I cancel the arrest warrant and summons, and how do I deal with the travel ban? Dear readers, we present this simplified article, in which we explain the implementation procedures briefly, how the defendant can deal with them, and the options he can take to enforce the judgment smoothly while decreasing the damages of implementation as much as possible.

This Law establishes interim property register in which sale contracts, off-plan sales, and other off-plan legal dispositions of real property are registered prior to inclusion in the property register maintained by Dubai Land Department.

The provisions of this Law supersede articles (2) and (11) of Law No. (13) of 2008 Regulating the Interim Property Register in the Emirate of Dubai.

This Law applies to developers who sell units off-plan in real estate development projects in the Emirate of Dubai and who should receive payments from purchasers or financiers towards such real property units to the special escrow accounts.
