Warning
- If you do not keep up your repayments/payments, you may lose your property
- You may have to pay penalties if you pay off a loan/financing early
- Refinancing your loans/financing may take longer to pay off than your previous loan/financing and may result in paying more in interest/profit
- If you do not meet the repayments/payments on your loan/financing, your account will go into arrears. This may affect your credit rating, which may limit your ability to access financing in the future
We have partnered with Abu Dhabi Housing Authority (ADHA) to support in the development of housing programmes and initiatives to meet the needs of the citizens of the Emirate of Abu Dhabi.
Our programme provides Emirati citizens of Abu Dhabi with an interest-free housing loan to buy or to build a private home on a plot of land granted by the Abu Dhabi Housing Authority (ADHA).
Loans are valued up to AED 2.25 million and are repaid in installments over the approved loan tenor.
Once the customer obtains approval from ADHA, the journey with FAB NHL is as follows.
