Questions that return
Is this an interest-free mortgage?
No. It is not and will not be an Islamic mortgage, and it is not a bank mortgage in costume. These are purchase contracts Italian law already knows, with no rate and with no third-party lender where the path does not need one.
Why does NIB hold no fatwa and no Sharia board?
No. We hold no Sharia certification and we hold no fatwa. We can put the drafts before a scholar the client trusts, and adapt what Italian law allows to be adapted.
Do you hold money or open an account?
No. NIB is not and will not be a deposit account. Payments under the deed go to the seller, the notary, or the authorised operator the client chose — not to a NIB account.
What does it cost?
The heads are the structuring fee, the notary’s fee, transfer taxes, searches and any translation. No figure appears on this page: on a hypothetical property any number would be invented. Amounts live in a written, named quote.
May I have my own lawyer read the drafts?
Yes, without reserve, and before any payment. If a structure does not survive the client’s own adviser, that is the moment it should fail.
