Is canceling an apartment purchase via message valid, or must it be through RERA?

Dear Lawyers,

I signed a Form F, and after 9 days, I decided not to buy the apartment.

Is communication by message valid, or does it need to be done through RERA to be considered valid?

Dear Questioner,

According to UAE law, any cancellation or withdrawal of a real estate transaction must be done in writing and submitted to the Real Estate Regulatory Agency (RERA).

A message alone may not be considered a valid form of communication for cancellation or withdrawal.

To validate the cancellation, certain procedures imposed by the Dubai Land Department must be followed by both parties and their agents. We will provide detailed information about these procedures.
