Often yes, through an assignment (a resale of an off-plan unit before it completes). The remaining payment plan passes to the buyer, and DAMAC issues consent for the transfer. This is a common route for owners whose plans have changed or who no longer want to continue the payment plan. 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.

DAMAC typically requires a minimum percentage of the purchase price to be paid before an assignment is permitted, then issues its consent for the transfer. The exact threshold varies by project and payment plan. Any overdue instalments usually need to be brought up to date first. DAMAC assignment fees and DLD fees apply to the transaction. We confirm the specific requirements for your unit in writing before you proceed.

If the instalments no longer suit you, an assignment can stop future payments and return your equity, minus costs. The alternative is to hold the unit to completion and sell it as a ready resale. We can model both against a cash figure so you can see which leaves you better off. There is no obligation to proceed. See our selling before handover guide.

A No Objection Certificate (NOC), or an assignment consent for off-plan units, is required before the property can transfer at the Dubai Land Department. It confirms service charges or instalments are up to date and DAMAC has no objection to the sale. It is applied for through DAMAC owner services. 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.

Yes. Ready DAMAC villas, townhouses, and 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.

We buy across DAMAC communities and towers, including DAMAC Hills, DAMAC Hills 2, DAMAC Lagoons, DAMAC Islands, Safa One and Safa Two, and DAMAC branded residences in Business Bay and Dubai Marina. If your DAMAC project is not listed, we still cover it – we work across all DAMAC developments Dubai-wide. Browse the full area list.

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 DAMAC 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.

Yes. Many DAMAC owners sell remotely, as a large share are overseas investors. 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.
