Construction Finance Dubai
Building your own home in Dubai gives you complete control over design and specification, but financing construction is more complex than a standard purchase mortgage. Construction finance uses phased drawdowns tied to build milestones rather than a single disbursement. Simply Mortgage arranges construction finance for Dubai self-build projects.
Key Features
Everything you need for construction finance dubai.
Phased Drawdown Structure
Construction loans release funds in stages at each build milestone (foundation, structure, finishing, completion), protecting your interests and the bank's.
Contractor and Plan Assessment
Banks require approved building plans, contractor credentials, and detailed cost breakdowns. We help prepare this documentation.
Plot-Plus-Construction Packages
If you already own or are buying land, we arrange combined plot and construction finance for streamlined terms.
Cost Overrun Planning
We structure facilities with contingency buffers (typically 10-15%) to cover unexpected construction cost increases.
Milestone Inspection Coordination
Each drawdown requires bank inspection confirming the milestone is complete. We coordinate these inspections efficiently.
Conversion to Term Mortgage
Upon construction completion, the facility converts to a standard repayment mortgage. We ensure smooth conversion terms.

Frequently Asked Questions
How does construction finance work in Dubai?
Construction finance provides funds in phases tied to building milestones. For example: 20% at foundation completion, 30% at structure completion, 30% at finishing stage, 20% on project completion. Each phase requires a bank inspection. During construction, you typically pay only interest on drawn amounts. On completion, it converts to a standard repayment mortgage.
What documents are needed for Dubai construction finance?
Required documents include: approved building plans from Dubai Municipality/Trakhees, contractor contract with detailed cost breakdown, contractor credentials and track record, plot title deed, plot purchase/Sale-Purchase Agreement if buying, project timeline with milestones, and proof of additional funds for contingencies.
What LTV is available for construction finance?
Construction finance LTV is typically 50-60% of the total project cost (land + construction). If you already own the land, the land value contributes to your equity. UAE residents may access up to 60% LTV, non-residents typically 40-50%.
