The Dubai Land Department (DLD) has launched an awareness campaign for its first-of-its-kind application ‘Dubai Brokers,’ said a report.

‘Dubai Brokers’ is the most important application issued by DLD for providing accurate and up-to-date information on licensed Dubai real estate brokers and real estate companies that have been approved by the department, reported state news agency Wam.

The new DLD application targets a large segment of owners and real estate investors, providing them with access to 2,340 registered real estate offices in Dubai besides around 5,856 active brokers in the Dubai real estate market, and accurate and up-to-date information on licensed real estate brokers, stated the report.

The application contributes to the realisation of DLD's vision to make the emirate the world's premier real estate destination for innovation, confidence and happiness, it added.

Yousef Al Hashmi, the deputy executive director of Real Estate Regulatory Agency (Rera), the regulatory arm of DLD, said, "The ‘Dubai Brokers’ application is characterised by speed and trust. It supports the sale and purchase of real estate by making the process both smart and safe, and recognises the important role played by real estate brokers, especially in enhancing real estate transactions in the emirate."

"We have designed our comprehensive campaign to reach all segments and stakeholders that are relevant to real estate broker services," noted Al Hashmi.

"We encourage these parties to download the application to help them identify and facilitate all their procedures, and also offer a wide range of options for investors," he stated.

According to him, the Dubai Brokers app helps both parties to obtain information on the best brokers, according to performance indicators and efficiency, and presents real estate units via an integrated map.

"The broker must simply fill in all of the required forms for sellers and buyers, and then enter the transaction data before visiting a real estate registration trustee’s office," he added.
