If you are interested in getting in at the early stages of this potentially huge opportunity and require mortgage finance, then take a look at the details below.

International-Mortgage-Broker.com is happy to announce that it is one of the first brokers to arrange mortgages in Qatar:

• We can finance up to 65% of the purchase price, meaning a 35% down payment has to be provided.
• Finance is case sensitive to the age and the monthly income you receive
• We can arrange mortgages for up to 20 years on a repayment basis.The loan has been repaid, however, by the time you reach the age of 60.
• If you wish to make a joint application, we will also need to look at their source of income, obligations with other banks, and other financial background.
• The Interest rate is currently at 9.25% on a variable basis.
• Other charges include a management fee of 1% of the loan amount.
• There is an early repayment charge of 1% of the remaining balance.
