How to prove the partnership of a property with the fiancé?
Hi!
Last year, my fiancé and I put money together to buy a property in Dubai. The mortgage and title deed are both in his name as we were unsure if we could co-own as an unmarried couple.
As I have contributed about 30% to the downpayment of the property and continue to pay about 30% of the mortgage, how can I claim 30% ownership?
Would my name need to be on the title deed? Or can we have a contract written?

Hello,
As per your query, please note that as you have invested 30%, you can get back the amount by filing a court case and canceling the deal if you are not married to the co-investor.
If he wants to put your name as a co-investor, by any relationship or by friendship, you have to check with the land department in regard to that.
Apart from that, you can have a notarized agreement, for the investment, but the legal title will only be valid through the title deed.
