Which banks finance Nakheel?
As a Dubai Holding master developer, Nakheel benefits from the Emirates NBD off-plan financing partnership (covering Dubai Holding's Meraas, Nakheel and Dubai Properties projects), so eligible buyers can secure ENBD pre-approval at booking.

💳 Off-plan mortgage
Capped at 50% LTV. Available on Nakheel through select banks once the project reaches the required construction stage.
