Getting liquidity in the UAE should not be this complicated.
Most property owners need cash quickly, but the usual options involve weeks of waiting, long document lists and unclear decisions.
They ask for income proof, salary certificates, credit checks and long forms. And even after all that, the application can still be rejected.
Alma offers a faster way to access liquidity through your property.
  • a simple process
  • an offer in 24 hours and
  • a legal transfer through a DLD trustee office

Step 3. Sign and complete the transfer
