Blocked property in DLD: Can I renew my tenancy contract and pay rent?
Dear Sir/Madam,
My landlord’s appointed management company reached out to me regarding the renewal of the tenancy contract. The building’s management informed me (verbally) that the apartment is blocked in DLD as the owner has pending service charges.
I confirmed and saw the apartment blocked in DLD.
Should I give my cheques for the new contract before this issue is settled?
Will I be able to register the renewed Ejari?
What happens if I don’t give the cheques until the case is resolved?
Is there any legal issue for me?
I don’t want to risk paying money when the contract is not officially registered in DLD.
Dear questioner,
The main point here is:
Does the block has bad effects on you and you can't use the apartment because of it?
Hi,
Pursuant to your query since the DLD blocks the property, you won't be able to get the Ejari renewed, so it is advisable to look for another property.
