Does your real estate company in Dubai charge fees for Ejari renewal?
Dubai - The real estate company which manages your tenancy should not collect a commission for the renewal of your tenancy contract every year.
It may be noted that the real estate company which manages your tenancy should not collect a commission for the renewal of your tenancy contract every year.
However, the real estate company may charge a reasonable amount as administrative charges for facilitating the renewal of a tenancy contract, provided an obligation to make such payments is imposed on a tenant by way of a stipulation in a tenancy contract or a separate contract between a tenant and a real estate company.
In your case, considering the existence of a separate contract between you and the real estate company wherein you have agreed to payment of annual administrative charges of Dh2,000 for the renewal of the tenancy contract, you may be liable to incur such administrative charges.
However, if you do not want to continuing paying this administrative charge, you may consider terminating this agreement with the real estate company for subsequent renewal.
