Put your UAE mortgage on the interactive map

The National's financial literacy campaign is aimed at helping all of us who live in the UAE to have an understanding of how money works and the ability to make informed and effective decisions about personal resources.

The National's financial literacy campaign is aimed at helping all of us who live in the UAE to have an understanding of how money works and the ability to make informed and effective decisions about personal resources.
As levels of personal debt rise in the Emirates, helping all of its residents to enhance their financial literacy is more critical than ever.
The development of a financially literate society that can support sustainable, diversified economic growth is also an important aspect of Abu Dhabi's 2030 Economic Vision.
Our first initiative is in partnership with the Pecunia.me mortgage map that will help improve transparency in the home loans market and help all residents to better manage the costs of their debt.
The online interactive tool is based on Google maps technology and allows for easy peer-to-peer comparison of both conventional and Islamic home loan terms across all areas of the UAE.

  2. It’s important to use clear and appealing photos, with catchy titles and detailed descriptions to capture the attention of prospective buyers.
  3. Try to advertise a realistic price to attract buyers looking for good deals, especially in the current environment where consumers are significantly more price-sensitive.
