Information pertaining to the formulation of these charges will be elaborated in the Master Community Declaration (MCD) or in the Disclosure Statement which will be part of the sales documentation.

2- If the unit registered and the initial contract of sale is issued they need to visit us to collect NOC from our side and they will go to trustee office to sell his shares to the main buyer and buy the fees to Dubai land departmen.

4. WHAT HAPPENS IF I LOSE MY SALE PURCHASE AGREEMENT (SPA)?

You may be required to provide an indemnity to MAG providing the reasons how you lost the SPA and agreeing to return it if found at a later date.

There is no substantial difference between principal and joint owners as both are considered to be equal shareholders of the property unless notified otherwise to the DLD.
