This form is mainly used between the seller & the broker. On signing this contract, as a seller you will receive the assurance that your property will not be solicited in an unwanted manner on any portals other than agreed with your broker. Details of your unit will be clearly mapped out. The terms of marketing the property can be clearly communicated as well. On signing this contract, it needs to go through an approval process through the Land Department’s Trakheesi system. Without signing this contract, the marketing of your property will be compromised as your property will be solicited by others and any interested parties may be mismanaged. It’s a recipe for fraud.

This document includes:

• All the details regarding the real estate.
• Financial aspects (service fee, mortgage status, payment plan).
• Giving the right to advertise the property legally and exclusively upon the previously agreed portals.
• Terms of the sale itself.
• Conditions of termination of the contract and the amount (%) of compensation as well as agency commission.

Often, the presence of this contract almost ensures better visibility on property portals and our website as it is a ranking factor in the display of properties. So, sign this contract if you need your property sold quickly.

This Form A contract is also extremely important for the broker to be able to market the property legally and to ensure his/her commission from the seller.

According to RERA law, a property owner (the salesman) may conclude no more than three Form-A simultaneously and engage a maximum of three brokers (one contract for each broker engaged).

Form-B also knows as Contract-B is a Broker Appointment Agreement between the Buyer and the Broker.  

When working with a real estate agent, it is best to work with one, qualified agent. A qualified agent will be able to find you the right property based on your needs. This agent will only work for the buyer. In this scenario, a buyer’s agent completes FORM B and the buyer(s) sign the agreement.

The buyer can terminate the agreement with the agent for whatever reason. The buyer must give seven (7) days’ written notice to the agent stating the reason for termination. Also, Form U must be executed for proper termination.

Buyer’s agents can attend inspections and auctions and interact with a listing agent, providing it is on the appropriate FORM I – Agent to Agent Agreement.

In the case of any collaboration between agents, Form-I is useful and clearly outlines the split of commission. This happens often in the case of secondary market properties where there are buyers’ & sellers’ agents.

When two agents engage to work together, Form I must be completed by both RERA-certified agents. The purpose of this form is to protect the agent listings, agent clients and to ensure a professional relationship between two qualified RERA real estate agents.

Moreover, the representative of the buyer will not be able to attend auctions, to view the property, or to interact with representatives of the other party’s interests without a Form I.

In the case that you are unhappy with your agent’s services, you may terminate their services using the following form.

Based on the RERA law, if the cooperation with the broker is terminated, the hirer is obliged to reimburse any fees, which was stipulated in Form A or B. But in most cases, factors such as the amount of work done and the length of the contract itself are taken into consideration.

Ejari, which means “My rent” in Arabic, is an initiative sponsored by RERA to regulate the leasing sector in the emirate of Dubai.

Ejari establishes a transparent relationship between landlords and tenants so that both parties are fully aware of their rights and obligations and are equally protected. The Ejari registration also integrates the tenancy agreement into a legal framework and it is therefore recognized by all government departments across the Emirate of Dubai. This comes into use in case a dispute arises between landlords and tenants.

KEY BENEFITS OF EJARI SYSTEM

Besides making sure that all rental transactions in the emirate are clear and transparent, there are several other benefits to having the Ejari system in place:

1. As a renter, it can help you do the requisite background check on the landlord and the property by requesting historical data to be more aware of the arrangements you are getting into.
2. There is no room for fraud or tampering of documents by either the landlord or the tenant, which again clarifies if there is any contention in the future.
3. It helps clamps down on illegal housing and unfair exploitation within the real estate market.
4. The Ejari system ensures a smooth relationship between landlords and tenants.

DOCUMENTS NEEDED FOR EJARI REGISTRATION

While applying through Ejari centers, you must submit the following documents:

• A tenancy contract
• A copy of Emirates ID, passport, commercial license, or power of attorney (if assigned) of the tenant
• A letter from the landlord stating the meter number (if there are shared electricity meters)
• An undertaking form of the data validity (if registered through real estate services trustees)
