As soon as you find a property to rent, make an offer. However, when you make your request come prepared with the following to secure the property and finalize the deal:
- Your visa and Emirates ID
- Three cheques for the deposit (two cheques should be in the landlord’s name and the third one in the brokerage’s name)
- First rental payment
- A refundable security deposit
- Broker’s commission
Once all the lease aspects are finalized, and the annual rent is agreed upon, your broker will use the Unified Ejari Contract. As soon as you sign the tenancy contract, and your cheques clear, you will receive the keys to your rental property. It means the tenancy agreement is made, and it is time to move in.
