Select Group Owners
Selling a Select Group Property in Dubai: Marina Gate, Peninsula and Waterfront Towers
Select Group is a premium developer known for landmark waterfront towers, including Marina Gate in Dubai Marina, Peninsula in Business Bay, and Six Senses Residences on Palm Jumeirah. Owners of these branded addresses often want a discreet, efficient sale rather than a long public listing. This page explains how Select Group owners exit quickly.
Whether you own an apartment in Marina Gate, a unit at Peninsula in Business Bay, a residence at Six Senses on Palm Jumeirah, or an off-plan Select Group unit, we can look at a direct cash purchase or introduce a verified cash buyer from our off-market network.

Cash Buyer Route
Best for: a discreet exit from a branded waterfront tower
Direct cash purchase or an introduction to a verified off-market buyer who wants that specific address. The buyer typically covers the DLD transfer fee and trustee fee. Timelines depend on property type and NOC processing, subject to checks.
How the cash route worksEstate Agent Route
Best for: top achievable price, no time pressure
List on the open market for the highest possible figure. A branded tower can attract strong interest, but a public sale still takes time, commonly 3 to 6 months, at around 2% commission, plus fall-through risk.
Compare sale routesBenchmark First
Best for: a private benchmark before you decide
Start with a no-obligation cash offer as a benchmark, then decide whether to take it or list. No pressure either way.

The Select Group NOC and DLD Transfer
The developer step that most affects your timeline
Every Dubai sale runs through a developer step before the trustee transfer at the Dubai Land Department. For a ready Select Group apartment this is a No Objection Certificate (NOC); for an off-plan unit it is an assignment consent. Both are applied for through Select Group owner services. We guide you through what is needed and help keep the application moving.
We check the title deed or Oqood, how much of any payment plan is paid, and any outstanding service charges.
Select Group issues the NOC or consent once accounts are up to date. Handling this at the start prevents a delay at transfer.
Ready units need an NOC; off-plan units need assignment consent. Fees are confirmed in writing upfront. Developer NOC fees commonly range from AED 500 to AED 5,000 or more depending on the project.
On a ready mortgaged unit, the bank issues a liability letter and the balance is cleared at completion. See our mortgaged property guide.
Once the NOC or consent is issued and documents are verified, the transfer books at the trustee office and funds are released on the agreed day.
For the full Dubai transfer process and the paperwork you will need, see our NOC and DLD transfer guide and documents checklist.

What Does a Select Group Seller Pay?
We charge 0% seller commission.
In most cash transactions, the buyer covers the DLD transfer fee and Trustee Office fee. For context, DLD transfer is commonly 4% of the sale price, and Trustee Office fees are commonly AED 2,100 or AED 4,200 depending on the transaction.
The seller typically pays the Select Group NOC or assignment fee where applicable. Developer NOC fees commonly range from AED 500 to AED 5,000 depending on the project, and off-plan assignments carry a separate developer fee.
If the property is mortgaged, bank discharge and settlement steps may also apply.
We confirm the exact cost split in writing before you commit to anything.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions from Select Group owners selling in Dubai
Can you sell a Marina Gate or Peninsula apartment discreetly?
Yes. Branded waterfront towers suit an off-market route, where the apartment is introduced to verified buyers who want that address, without a public listing. We price on recent completed transactions in the tower and community, and confirm the figure in writing after assessment.
Can I sell my Select Group off-plan unit before handover?
Often yes, through an assignment (a resale of an off-plan unit before it completes). The remaining payment plan passes to the buyer, and Select Group issues consent for the transfer. We check your sale and purchase agreement and payment position, then advise whether assigning now or holding to handover is cleaner. See our off-plan guide.
How does the Select Group NOC work?
A No Objection Certificate (NOC), or an assignment consent for an off-plan unit, is required before the property can transfer at the Dubai Land Department. It confirms service charges or instalments are up to date and Select Group has no objection to the sale. We guide you through the application and help keep it moving. Clearing any outstanding service charge or instalment early is the most common way to avoid delay. See our NOC and DLD transfer guide.
Can you buy a ready Select Group apartment?
Yes. Ready Select Group apartments are sold as standard resales. Once transfer-ready (NOC issued, mortgage discharged if applicable, documents verified), apartments commonly complete in 10 to 21 days and villas in 14 to 28 days. Mortgaged properties take longer, around 21 to 36 days, due to bank discharge. Timelines are case by case and subject to checks. See our timeline guide.
Which Select Group developments do you buy in?
We buy across Select Group developments, including Marina Gate and Jumeirah Living Marina Gate in Dubai Marina, Peninsula in Business Bay, and Six Senses Residences on Palm Jumeirah. If your Select Group building is not listed, we still cover it. Browse the full area list.
Is my Select Group property Golden Visa eligible?
Possibly. Property valued at AED 2 million or above can support a Golden Visa application, subject to the current rules and eligibility. Higher-value Select Group homes often sit above that threshold, which can widen the buyer pool. We are not an immigration advisor, so confirm eligibility with a specialist. See our note on the Golden Visa effect on the resale market.
What fees will I pay when selling a Select Group property?
We charge 0% seller commission on the cash route. In most cash transactions the buyer covers the DLD transfer fee (commonly 4% of the sale price) and the Trustee Office fee. The seller typically pays the Select Group NOC or assignment fee where applicable. If the property is mortgaged, bank discharge and settlement steps may also apply. The exact cost split is confirmed in writing before you proceed. See our fees guide.
Can I sell my Select Group property if I live overseas?
Yes. Many Select Group owners sell remotely. You grant a Power of Attorney (POA) so our partners can sign and attend the trustee office on your behalf. POA notarisation requirements vary by country, so it is best to start early. We coordinate the process remotely.
