At Shelters Star Real Estate, we treat your property like our own. Our mission is simple: achieve the best price for your property as quickly as possible, while ensuring a smooth and fully compliant process from start to finish.
1. Why Choose Shelters Star?
We don’t simply list properties—we launch them to the right audience.
Accurate Pricing: Using real-time market insights, we determine a competitive price to attract serious buyers and avoid properties lingering on the market.
Premium Exposure: Your property will be highlighted through professional photos and videos on top portals, social media platforms, and our exclusive investor network.
Serious Buyers Only: We pre-qualify potential buyers so viewings are productive and focused.
Hassle-Free Process: From compliance paperwork to finalizing the transfer at the Trustee Office, we manage every step.
2. How We Sell Your Property: Step-by-Step
Step 1: Valuation & Market Strategy
We start by assessing your property and the surrounding market. This ensures your asking price is realistic, competitive, and maximizes your returns. Whether your property is in Downtown Dubai, Business Bay, or Palm Jumeirah, we tailor the strategy for your neighborhood.
Step 2: Listing Agreement (Form A)
Before we can market your property, we need a signed RERA Form A, which formalizes the listing. This contract sets out the marketing price, commission, and listing duration. Once signed, we secure the Marketing Permit (Trakheesi), allowing your property to be advertised legally.
Step 3: Marketing & Property Viewings
This is where our expertise shines. Our approach includes:
High-quality photography and videography.
Featured listings on leading property portals.
Targeted email campaigns to a database of over 500 active investors.
Flexible viewings that respect your schedule and, if applicable, your tenants.
Step 4: Receiving an Offer (Form F)
When a buyer submits a serious offer, we negotiate on your behalf to achieve the best possible price. After both parties agree, the MOU (Form F) is signed, and the buyer pays a 10% deposit.
Step 5: NOC & Property Transfer
NOC: We obtain a No Objection Certificate from the developer, ensuring all service charges are cleared and the property is ready for transfer.
Transfer: At the DLD Trustee Office, we finalize the sale. You receive your payment, and the buyer takes ownership.
3. Costs Sellers Should Know About
Transparency is essential. While buyers cover most of the purchase fees (e.g., 4% DLD transfer fee), sellers also have specific obligations:
| Fee Type | Approx. Amount | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| NOC Fee | AED 500 – AED 5,000 | Paid to the developer, varies by project. |
| Service Charges | Variable | Must be cleared up to the transfer date. |
| Mortgage Release Fee | AED 1,290 | Applicable only if the property is mortgaged. |
| Early Settlement Fee | ~1% of Loan | If paying off mortgage early, confirm with your bank. |
| Agency Fee | As per Form A | Typically 2% + VAT, unless agreed otherwise. |
4. Documents Needed to List Your Property
For Individual Sellers:
Title Deed (or Oqood for off-plan properties)
Passport copy & Visa page (or Emirates ID)
For Corporate Sellers:
Trade License & MOA
Shareholder Passports
Board resolution authorizing the sale
5. Tips to Sell Faster
First Impressions Matter: A fresh coat of paint and decluttering can make your property more appealing.
Tenant Cooperation: If your property is rented, maintaining a good relationship with tenants ensures smoother viewings.
Price It Right: Overpriced properties stay on the market longer. Trust the data—well-priced homes sell significantly faster.
