About the project
This page is an example. The project described does not exist, all details are placeholders and the images are for illustration only. It shows how a project page will be structured once we present real projects.
A real project page will name the developer and the project number at the Dubai Land Department, the construction progress, the unit types, the payment plan under the contract and the approved service charges. It will also set out the points we check before a purchase, each with its date and source. What to bear in mind when buying off-plan is explained in our guide to off-plan property in Dubai.
Available units
- Example: apartment with 1 bedroom
- Example: apartment with 2 bedrooms
Amenities
- Example: balcony
- Example: underground parking space
- Example: shared pool
Points to check
- Project registration and escrow accountCheck that the project is registered with the Dubai Land Department and that all payments go into the project’s escrow account. The account reduces certain risks; it guarantees neither completion nor a refund.
- Consequences of late paymentIf the buyer defaults, the developer may retain up to 40% of the unit value, depending on construction progress (Law No. 19 of 2017, as issued in 2017). Have the default and delay clauses read by a lawyer admitted in the UAE.
- Service chargesThe amounts approved by RERA for each project and year can be looked up free of charge in the Dubai Land Department’s Service Charge Index. The owner is responsible for paying them.
- Tax and currencyRental income and sale gains may be taxable in your country of residence; please clarify this with a tax adviser before you buy. The dirham is pegged to the US dollar, so you carry the exchange-rate risk against the euro or the Swiss franc.
Final legal, tax and technical checks must be carried out by qualified professionals. DACHMA Advisory coordinates them but does not replace them.
Information from the developer, non-binding and without warranty. Sizes, specification, availability, prices and dates must be verified before any decision. No promise of returns or capital growth.
