Your questions, answered

Here are some common questions from UAE real estate professionals. For more information contact us at [email protected].

Can I use this report in a RERA audit?

Yes. Every screening generates a timestamped Screening Record stored permanently in your audit log, designed to satisfy the Ministry of Economy’s five-year retention mandate. Your full compliance history is searchable by buyer, date, or agent and can be produced instantly when an inspector asks for it.

How long does a screening take?

Results are returned in seconds. You enter your buyer’s details and the transaction data directly into the platform, and BuyerCheck simultaneously screens against all international watchlist and media databases instantly. Your Screening Record is generated automatically the moment results are returned.

What happens if I still get a RERA violation?

Your BuyerCheck audit log is your primary defense, a complete record of every applicant screened, reported, and escalated is evidence of good faith compliance. If you face a Ministry of Economy or RERA audit, Altieri Firm LLC is available to represent your agency through the process as a separate legal engagement.

Should I screen only confirmed buyers?

No. Screen every applicant from first contact. Your compliance obligation begins when you establish a business relationship, not when a transaction is confirmed. Screening only confirmed buyers means you have already invested significant time on an unscreened individual, and risks wasting a commission on a deal that cannot legally proceed.

Does each purchase require a separate screening?

No. Each applicant requires one screening per transaction, not one per unit. If a buyer is purchasing multiple units in the same transaction or development, a single Enhanced Report covering that buyer and the total transaction amount is sufficient. However, a new screening is required if they return for a separate transaction at a later date.

Does BuyerCheck protect me from penalties?

Yes. Federal Decree-Law No. 10 of 2025 includes a safe harbor provision that shields brokers who can demonstrate a systematic compliance process. BuyerCheck creates that evidence automatically on every screening, documenting that you identified, assessed, and escalated risk appropriately.

Can I screen corporate buyers and map UBOs?

Yes. When you select a corporate buyer, BuyerCheck prompts you to add all beneficial owners holding 25% or more of the entity. Each is screened individually and all results are linked to a single compliance record in your audit log, giving you a complete picture of the corporate structure and everyone behind it.

Do you keep buyer information confidential?

Yes. All buyer data is encrypted throughout the screening process, used exclusively for AML screening on your behalf, and never shared with third parties except where required to perform the screening itself. Your clients’ data is never sold or used for any purpose outside the platform. Full details are in our Privacy Policy.

What if an applicant is flagged as a PEP?

A PEP flag requires Enhanced Due Diligence before proceeding. BuyerCheck identifies the connection level and your Screening Record documents the flag was appropriately escalated. You then order an Enhanced Report, and a Legal Certification may be required before the transaction can continue.

Can multiple users access one team account?

Yes, on Professional and Enterprise plans. Professional includes up to 10 agent accounts. Enterprise includes unlimited agents plus owner and compliance officer roles with separate permission levels. Each agent sees their own records while owners and compliance officers have a unified view across the entire team. Starter is single user only.
