Question 2

What is 'Form B' in Dubai real estate transactions?

Accepted Answer

The buyer/tenant representation agreement between a client and a broker

Answer

Form B is the buyer/tenant representation agreement that authorizes a broker to search for and negotiate a property on behalf of the buyer or tenant. It specifies commission arrangements and terms. Alongside Form A, it is part of RERA's standardized transaction documentation.

Question 3

What is 'Form F' (Memorandum of Understanding) in Dubai real estate?

Accepted Answer

The contract between buyer and seller setting out agreed terms before the formal SPA is prepared

Answer

Form F (MOU) is a RERA-standardized agreement between buyer and seller that records agreed transaction terms including price, deposit (typically 10%), and timeline, pending preparation of the formal SPA. It is legally binding and is submitted to DLD for F-registration.

Question 4

Under RERA regulations, what must a real estate company (brokerage) display at its premises?

Accepted Answer

DLD-issued brokerage license, RERA registration certificate, and names of all licensed brokers employed

Answer

All DLD/RERA-registered brokerage offices must display their DLD brokerage license number and maintain a current RERA registration. Brokers employed by the firm must be individually RERA-licensed. These requirements ensure accountability and allow consumers to verify legitimacy.

Question 5

What is the 'Trakheesi' system in Dubai real estate?

Accepted Answer

RERA's online portal for registering broker listings, activity permits, and real estate transactions

Answer

Trakheesi (meaning 'licenses' in Arabic) is DLD/RERA's online permission management system. Brokers must register property listings through Trakheesi to obtain an advertising permit number. This prevents duplicate listings and ensures only licensed brokers advertise properties.
