Why This Is Listed as an OP Deal

The agent describes the villa as selling at OP plus DLD, with an original price of AED 8,100,000. The asking price in the brief is also AED 8,100,000, so there is no premium over OP and no discount below it. At the standard 4% rate, the seller's original DLD fee would be about AED 324,000, which puts their total cost at about AED 8,424,000. This DLD figure is a DPF calculation, not taken from the seller's paperwork.

Before proceeding, buyers should confirm what the AED 8,100,000 price includes. It could mean the seller is absorbing the DLD fee they paid. It could instead mean the buyer pays OP plus a DLD reimbursement, which would make the total about AED 8,424,000. Buyers should also confirm how the new transfer fees will be split.
