The Abu Dhabi Real Estate Centre (ADREC) has launched a government-backed platform enabling property transactions to be completed entirely online, making the capital the first city in the region to offer fully digital real estate sales.
The new service, called the Digital Buy & Sell Journey, allows users to finalise every step of a property sale or purchase through a single, secure online process. This includes mortgage release, registration, verification by an ADREC Trustee, digital signing, and escrow settlements.
A Fully Integrated System
The platform integrates with the government service portal TAMM and uses the UAE Pass for tamper-proof digital signatures, allowing residents and investors to sign documents from anywhere in the world. The system is designed to create a more seamless experience for all stakeholders, including the many buyers and investors in the UAE property market.
To ensure legal and financial security, the platform also features video-enabled participation from ADREC Trustees and uses escrow accounts owned and managed by the centre, providing full regulatory oversight. The user-friendly interface guides buyers and sellers through each stage, with options for virtual or in-person meetings available via TAMM.
Strategic Digital Transformation
Rashed Al Omaira, Acting Director General of ADREC, described the initiative as a “strategic leap” in the emirate’s digital evolution. He stated that the platform is more than a technological innovation, as it strengthens the foundations of the real estate market by ensuring efficiency, security, and transparency.
“As the emirate accelerates its journey toward becoming an AI-enabled government by 2027, this platform ensures real estate is fully aligned with that vision,” Al Omaira said. He added that the service demonstrates Abu Dhabi’s commitment to offering world-class, future-ready services. The move reflects a broader regional trend towards digital innovation in the real estate sector.
The Digital Buy & Sell Journey aligns with ADREC’s strategy to unify and strengthen Abu Dhabi’s property sector. By making transactions faster and more cost-effective, the initiative reinforces the emirate’s position as a leader in digital governance and sets a new benchmark for secure, borderless real estate dealings.
