What Is a Property Ownership Inquiry?

Verify Real Estate Ownership Before Signing a Deal

Property ownership inquiry is an official check of real estate ownership and registration status in Dubai. The service is based on data from the Dubai Land Department (DLD) and confirms who legally owns a property and whether it is registered in their name.

This verification is essential when purchasing, leasing, investing, or conducting legal due diligence on a property. It helps prevent fraud, ownership disputes, and transactions involving unregistered real estate.

Through EGSH, a government-authorised centre, clients can request this inquiry using the area and land number. EGSH ensures fast access to official records and assists in identifying property details if the client does not have complete information.

How can I find the owner of a property in Dubai before completing a transaction?

You can verify the legal owner of a property in Dubai by submitting a Property Ownership Inquiry through the DLD website, the Dubai REST App, or Real Estate Services Trustee. The process requires basic property information, such as the area name and land number, and provides immediate access to official ownership records. EGSH, as a government-authorised centre, allows you to verify ownership securely and with expert assistance within a single visit.

What details are required to check property ownership in Dubai through EGSH?

To check property ownership, you must provide the area name and land number of the property. These are the primary identifiers used by DLD to locate ownership records. If available, additional information — such as plot number, Makani number, Title Deed number, or project/building name — can help identify the correct property more efficiently. EGSH specialists can assist in locating or confirming these details if only partial information is available.

How to find the plot number in Dubai if only the location or project name is known?

If you do not have the plot number, it can be identified using tools provided by DLD, such as the Dubai REST App or the DLD website map services. By entering the location or project name, you can search for related land and plot details. EGSH specialists can assist in locating the correct plot number based on the available property information.

Where to find the Title Deed number in Dubai if the physical document is missing?

If the original Title Deed is missing, the Title Deed number can be retrieved through DLD by submitting a request via the Dubai REST App or visiting a DLD service centre. The request requires property-related details such as the area, land number, or plot number to locate the record. EGSH can assist in recovering the Title Deed number by accessing DLD records based on the available information.

What type of property status information can be confirmed through this service?

The Property Ownership Inquiry service confirms the following information based on official DLD records: — Registered legal owner of the property — Ownership status (confirmed registration with DLD) — Basic property details such as land number and area — Date of last registration or update, if applicable This service does not include financial encumbrances (e.g. mortgages) or legal disputes.

Can a third party verify ownership?

The Property Ownership Inquiry service is publicly accessible and does not require proof of ownership or a power of attorney. Any individual or legal entity — including a third party such as a buyer, broker, or legal advisor — can verify property ownership using the area and land number.
