Lease to Own Release

Lease-to-own release removes a registered Ejara-to-Own arrangement from the property record after the financing entity confirms that the relevant obligations have been settled or otherwise authorizes the release. RAALC Real Estate Registration Agent assists property owners, lessees, financing institutions, companies, and authorized representatives with verifying the registered contract, reviewing the bank’s release letter, preparing the transaction file, and completing the applicable Dubai Land Department procedure.

Lease to Own Release

Service Overview

A registered lease-to-own contract creates a recorded interest connected to the property, the lessee, and the financing entity. When the arrangement reaches the stage at which that interest should be removed, a formal release transaction is required to update the relevant property record.

The Dubai Land Department service covers the release of different lease-to-own structures, including standard contracts, provisional lease arrangements, contracts linked to usufruct rights, and provisional registration records. The exact release type must correspond with the way the original Ejara-to-Own contract was registered.

The principal supporting document is a bank letter in Arabic confirming the release of the lease-to-own arrangement. The owner’s identification and valid representation documents must also be available where another person is acting on the owner’s behalf. RAALC Real Estate Registration Agent checks these records against the registered property details before processing the release.

Completion of the release removes the recorded Ejara-to-Own interest. It does not by itself transfer the property to another party or replace any separate ownership transaction that may still be required.

Our Process

  1. Verify the Registered Contract

    We identify the existing Ejara-to-Own entry and confirm whether it relates to a standard property record, provisional arrangement, usufruct right, or provisional registration.

  2. Review the Bank Release Letter

    The financing entity’s Arabic release letter is checked for consistency with the registered property, owner, contract, and financing details.

  3. Finalize the Release File

    The owner’s identification, representation documents, and supporting property records are assembled in the form required for the applicable release transaction.

  4. Update the Property Record

    The release is processed, and the relevant electronic title, statement, registration certificate, map, or other updated property output is issued as applicable.
