What is a Mortgage or Home Loan?
It’s a loan that is used to buy a property such as a house, villa, apartment, townhouse, or small building as an investment. The property will be held by the Bank as security until you pay off the loan.
What is a Down Payment?
Down Payment is the initial amount you need to contribute to availing of a home loan from a financial institution. It’s the amount of savings you use in buying a home.
How do we value the property?
Should you wish to get a mortgage from FAB, the property valuation, also called a site visit, will be conducted by one of the evaluators on our approved panel. Evaluators will visit the property to estimate its value. If you have already selected the property, and wish to estimate its worth, all you need to ensure is to specify the contact person (if other than you) who could be contacted for property valuation. To request a property valuation, you may call our Contact Centre on 600525500.
If you need the property valuation to be conducted without a loan from FAB, then you will have to contact a property valuator.
Do I need an insurance cover for the mortgage?
Yes. You would need both Life Insurance and Property Insurance cover for your mortgage. FAB has a group insurance cover available through our partners for both and can be easily availed. You will not be required to do any medical test for loan amount up to AED 6 million.
What is EIBOR, its trend and max high/low?
EIBOR (Emirates InterBank Offered Rate) is a benchmark interest rate published daily by UAE Central Bank. It reflects the average rate offered by major banks in UAE for short-term loan funding between banks. Daily and historical data for EIBOR is available at UAE Central Bank’s website EIBOR Rates | CB UAE (centralbank.ae).
