How to buy Aldar and other Abu Dhabi off-plan through a licensed broker
Off-plan means you buy a home or investment that is not yet complete, usually on a developer payment plan. In Abu Dhabi, a licensed broker can help you compare projects, understand the payment plan, and complete the purchase. Your Key is a brokerage, not a developer sales office and not a property manager.
Abdul Shakoor founded Your Key in 2018. He is RERA certified (Dubai) and ADREC certified (Abu Dhabi).
Broker versus developer sales office
A developer sales office represents that developer's inventory. A broker can compare more than one developer and explain differences in location, handover timing and payment plans. Your Key does not claim exclusive allocations or "official partner" status unless that is separately confirmed in writing.
What to check before you pay
- The agent's ADREC registration
- The developer, community and expected handover
- The payment plan, including what is due before and after handover
- That payments go to the correct developer or escrow arrangement, not to an informal personal account
- Service charges and what is included at handover
This is general information, not legal or financial advice. Terms vary by project.
