Fixed-rate Home Loan

Lock in your interest rate with a fixed-interest home loan.

Enjoy predictable monthly repayments

A new home can come with a long to-do list, but with a fixed-interest home loan you'll have one less thing to worry about for up to 5 years.

Your repayments will stay the same until the end date of the the fixed-rate period, even if interest rates change. Once the fixed-rate period is over, you'll automatically move to a 3-month EIBOR based variable rate for the rest of your mortgage term.

  • Fix your interest rate and your monthly repayments for 1, 2, 3 or 5 years.
  • You'll have an overpayment allowance equivalent to 25% of the outstanding balance of your home loan.
  • Buy a sustainable LEED-certified property and get a discount on your home loan.
  • You don't have to be an HSBC customer. We'll make all the arrangements in setting up an account for you.

What you get with your Fixed-rate Home Loan

Quick and easy application

Applying for an Approval in Principle takes on average just 60 minutes. 

Mortgage advisor support

Receive advice over the phone from a mortgage advisor who can give you the support you need. 

Life and property insurance

We can arrange life and property insurance for you. It is mandatory to have both types of cover for properties in the UAE. 

Last payment finance

For new build properties bought directly from the developer, we can finance the last payment due to the developer upon completion. 

How it works

You can choose to fix your interest rate, and your mortgage repayments for 1, 2, 3 or 5 years. After the fixed period is over, the interest rate will vary. We calculate your interest rate by adding together the 3-month EIBOR rate and the HSBC margin.

In most cases it should take up to 14 working days to arrange your home loan, depending on your circumstances.

Things to know

Who can apply?

You can apply for a Fixed-rate Home Loan if you:

  • live in the UAE
  • are aged between 21 and 65
  • have a monthly income of at least AED 10,000

If you live outside of the UAE and you're an HSBC Global Private Banking or Premier customer, you may still be able to apply for a home loan to buy a property.

HSBC Premier with your home loan

You may be able to apply for an HSBC Premier account with us when you take out your home loan. As a Premier customer, you'll get a better interest rate on your home loan, plus lots of other exclusive benefits. To be eligible for an HSBC Premier account you'll need either to:

To be eligible for an HSBC Premier account you must meet ONE of the following criteria:

  • hold a mortgage with us with a drawdown of AED 3,000,000 or above and build up a minimum Total Relationship Balance (TRB) of AED 500,000 (or equivalent) within 12 months
  • deposit a monthly salary of at least AED 40,000, or AED 30,000 if you're an Emirati, and build up a minimum TRB of AED 500,000 (or equivalent) within 12 months
  • maintain a TRB with us of AED 500,000 in deposits and/or investments
  • already hold, and qualify for, a Premier account in another country or region
  • have a spouse or parent who already holds, and qualifies for, a Premier account

If you do not keep up your repayments/payments, you may lose your property.

You may have to pay penalties if you pay off a loan/financing early.

If you do not meet the repayments/payments on your loan/financing, your account will go into arrears. This may affect your credit rating, which may limit your ability to access financing in the future.

Refinancing your loans/financing may take longer to pay off than your previous loan/financing and may result in paying more in interest/profit.

Get started

Investing in the UAE with us is straightforward, even if you're not a resident yet.

We recommend that you get an Approval in Principle first – we’ll explain how to do this over the phone when you request a call back. Then, we'll let you know what you’ll need to do for your home loan application.

If you're an HSBC Global Private Banking or Premier customer already, simply call your Relationship Manager to get started.
