Expo City Dubai has partnered with Emirates NBD to provide mortgage and home financing solutions for buyers purchasing homes across its residential developments, including both ready properties and off-plan projects.
The agreement provides eligible buyers with access to financing through Emirates NBD, subject to the bank’s standard lending criteria and regulatory requirements. The financing framework is designed to support customers throughout the property purchase process as Expo City prepares to deliver its first residential neighbourhoods.
Home financing will cover ready and off-plan properties
Under the agreement, Emirates NBD will provide financing for eligible residential properties across Expo City Dubai’s portfolio.
The bank will offer mortgage solutions for completed homes as well as off-plan developments. Buyers will also have access to services including account support and financing options that are structured around different stages of the purchase journey, subject to approval and applicable lending regulations.
Ahmed Al Khatib, Chief Development and Delivery Officer at Expo City Dubai, said
The partnership gives buyers greater financial certainty by providing access to structured mortgage solutions before handover.
Emirates NBD expands support for Dubai’s residential market
For Emirates NBD, the agreement strengthens its presence in Dubai’s residential property market by supporting buyers within one of the city’s largest mixed-use developments.
Yousuf Saeed Mohd, Group Head of Priority and Personal Banking at Emirates NBD, said
The bank will offer competitive home financing solutions designed to support customers purchasing homes at Expo City Dubai while contributing to the UAE’s wider urban development ambitions.
The financing programme is available to eligible domestic and international buyers who meet the bank’s lending requirements and the Central Bank of the UAE’s mortgage regulations.
Expo City Dubai home financing – preparing for its first residential handovers
The partnership comes as Expo City Dubai continues its transition from the site of Expo 2020 Dubai into a permanent mixed-use community.
Residential handovers for the first neighbourhoods are expected to begin in December 2026. The financing agreement gives prospective buyers access to mortgage solutions ahead of those deliveries and supports future residential launches across the master development.
