The Sale Leaseback Agreement Template is designed for use in the United Arab Emirates when a property owner wishes to sell their property while maintaining operational control through a long-term lease arrangement. This type of agreement is commonly used as a financing mechanism, allowing organizations to unlock capital tied up in real estate while retaining use of the property. The template complies with UAE Federal Laws, including Civil Code (Federal Law No. 5 of 1985) and relevant emirate-specific property regulations. It encompasses both the sale transaction and the subsequent lease arrangement, including provisions for property transfer, registration requirements, lease terms, maintenance obligations, and potential repurchase rights. The document is particularly valuable for companies seeking to improve their balance sheet while maintaining operational continuity.
