Breach of Real Estate Contract


Buying or selling real estate is a serious business. It involves a lot of money and a valued property. Thus, it is essential to talk to a legal consultant in Dubai to know how to put legal safeguards in place.

A real estate contract provides protection for both the buyer and seller. It is a binding agreement between two parties regarding the transfer of a home or property. The deal needs to meet specific requirements to be valid - the purchase agreement must be in writing, contain an offer and an acceptance, the purpose must be legal, and there must be an exchange of things of value (money for the property).

A breach of contract occurs when one of the parties to the contract fails to perform any of the stated terms. Upon signing the contract with the buyer, it’s reasonable to expect that all responsibilities will be fulfilled. But a buyer can break a contract for a myriad of reasons, mainly if the cost of going through the contract is more than the cost of penalties for breaching it. It’s best to be prepared by finding the right lawyer in Dubai who can help you understand the process.


Here are some ways that a breach of real estate contract by a buyer can occur:


       The buyer fails to obtain adequate financing before the closing date.
