Do I have to send an eviction notice to the tenant if the previous owner sent one already?
Q: Hi I am getting into an agreement to purchase an apartment. The owner has served the eviction notice via Dubai courts to the tenant. As per the court`s document, the tenant has to move out in May 2023. Is it safe for me to assume that tenant will have to automatically leave on this date?

The invoice submitted after an apartment eviction is not accepted. What can a tenant do?
Q: To whom this may concern, Recently, I have an issue with our agent when we left the property. We rented the property for two years and we gave the security deposit. We have moved out of the place because the agent increased the rent by more than the RERA calculation. Now, almost 1 month already had passed and we still have not received the security deposit. The agent gave us the invoice which includes; the A/C service of the apartment, and the supply and replacement of the water heater with pipes (plumbing work). All other costs are okay such as re-painting and replacing hinges. But the first two are unacceptable from my point of view. Are we allowed to submit a dispute with the landlord, if the agent will not give the security deposit back, should we file a complaint? Kindly need your expert advice! Thank you and regards,Oct 13, 2022

A bank increases the amount of installments of a loan without notification
Q: Dear Sir/Madam, Greetings! I am an ex-pat who took a personal loan from a bank in Abudhabi. I have 13 months of installments left. My bank changed my monthly installment amount last month without any notification. They charged me an additional amount of 1190 per month for the next 13 months. When I contacted the bank, they said these are your accrued interest amount as I took deferment during Covid period. When I asked them how much the interest would be before taking deferment, they didn’t give me a proper response. I initiated a query with customer care asking them to provide complete details about my accrued interest. They are ready to discuss only via phone & they can’t send any emails. Can the bank charge a high-interest amount for deferment? Kindly advise me on what I can do, please! Thank you!Oct 13, 2022
