Why is my listing no longer verified?

A listing marked as verified will expire and become unverified for one of the following 4 reasons:

The contract between the broker and owner submitted has expired (Form A, NOC expired).
The price of the listing has been increased or reduced by 10% or more

Residential Rentals: 45 days
Residential Sales: 90 days
Commercial Rentals: 90 days
Commercial Sales: 180 days

Listings will remain verified based on the above timeframes, subject to the owner/broker agreement being valid throughout this period

Note: Automatically submitted listings will expire after 45 days for all types

Contracts between broker and owner submitted for the purposes of verification are valid for the periods outlined below:

Residential Rent – 3 months
Residential Sale – 6 months
Commercial Rent – 6 months

Please note these are the maximum periods a listing can be verified for using each document, irrespective of the actual expiry date specified on the contract, unless the contract is valid for a shorter period than set out in the article above, at which point the listing would expire as soon as the contract does.

I lost my listing's verification, can I re-verify it again?

Yes, When the listing expires as a result of contract expiry, we would require a newly signed contract to be submitted, along with all other associated documents, to place this request in our verification queue pending review by our team.

Can I change the price without losing verificaiton?

Dubai Sales: As all Dubai sales listings must be submitted using a Digital Form A, the price of the listing must always match the price on the form. Should you alter the price of the listing, this must also be reflected on the Digital Form A

Dubai Rent: New submissions must have a listed price that matches the price on the form. Once the listing has been verified, the price can be changed up or down by less than 10% and the verification status will remain. Please note that all price changes must be authorised by the property owner, and proof of the price change must be able to be provided upon request

Abu Dhabi Sales: New submissions must have a listed price that matches the price on the form. Once the listing has been verified, the price can be changed up or down by less than 10% and the verification status will remain.

Can I upload other supporting documents?

If you have any other documents you would like to share with our Verification Team, set “Supporting documents” to Yes and upload your document(s).

What is Auto Verification? How does it work?

Auto Verification aims to streamline the day-to-day operations of an admin by automatically identifying, and submitting listings that meet our quality guidelines, for verification.

The automatically submitted listings are then evaluated by the Customer Experience team and are granted a ‘Verified’ status or badge on successful evaluation.

Can I manually request verification if auto-verification fails?

Yes, if for any reason, your listing is denied the verification status via the auto-verification feature – you may reach out to Support team at verified@propertyfinder.ae to request re-evaluation with the right documents.

Do I have to pay for my listings to be auto-verified?
