ADIB's home finance platform spans property purchase from developers or existing owners, buyouts of other banks' mortgages at better rates, non-resident financing for UAE property investors, finance against pre-owned property or land, self-construction on owned or gifted land for UAE nationals (via government housing schemes), the first-of-its-kind ADIB Plot Finance for land purchase, and Under Construction Finance securing a 20% advance.
