Form F in Dubai: the sale agreement
Form F, the memorandum of understanding between buyer and seller: what it fixes and what happens after it is signed.
What Form F is
Form F is the memorandum of understanding (MOU) between the buyer and the seller in the format of the Dubai Land Department. It is signed when the price and the terms are agreed.
What it fixes
- The price and how it is paid — cash or mortgage
- The deposit the buyer leaves, usually by cheque
- The date of the transfer
- What happens if one side does not complete
After Form F
The seller obtains the developer's NOC, the mortgage is cleared if there is one, and both sides meet at a trustee office for the transfer.
