The dates are our estimate: we spread the construction share evenly between now and the keys. The developer's real dates follow the building work, so they can move.
Your payments go into the project's escrow account, which RERA watches, not straight to the developer.

Before you buy
Pay into the project's escrow account only.
This project's escrow account is at the bank named on the register above, watched by RERA. Pay into that account, never to a person.
Budget for the service charge.
Once the building is finished you pay a yearly service charge per sq ft, set from the building's budget and approved by RERA. Ask DAMAC Properties for the estimate.
Register the sale with Oqood.
The Land Department records off-plan sales in its Oqood register. Until your sale is on it, the home isn't in your name.

There is no DLD service charge for this project or its area, so we leave out the service charge and the net yield.
Gross yield is a year's rent before costs, as a share of the price. At the from price: AED 74,999 ÷ AED 2,170,000 = 3.5%. The home earns nothing until the keys, and new buildings often rent for more than older ones.
Rents come from Ejari, Dubai's register of rent contracts: new residential contracts in the area, all buildings. A median is the middle one: half are lower, half higher.

Chelsea Residences is a Chelsea-branded DAMAC Properties project of six towers in two phases in Dubai Maritime City, with one- to three-bedroom apartments from AED 2,170,000 and a listed handover of December 2029. The from price per square foot is about 12% below 103 one-bedroom off-plan sales in the project over the 12 months to November 2026.
The Dubai Land Department lists 103 one-bedroom off-plan sales in Chelsea Residences in the 12 months to November 2026. The from price per square foot is about 12% below their median. With six towers in two phases, ask which tower and phase your unit is in, and whether its handover date differs.
The plan is 20% on booking, 40% during construction and 40% at handover. At the from price that is AED 434,000, AED 868,000 and AED 868,000. The Land Department fee is 4% of the price, AED 86,800 at the from price.
Sizes run from about 773 to 2,842 sq ft overall. Kitchens are fitted, and homes have built-in wardrobes and double-glazed windows. Listed facilities include a Chelsea Football Simulation Room, the Chelsea Blue Beach Club, infinity pools, aerial yoga rooms, outdoor gyms, a jogging track, play areas and treatments such as cryotherapy.
By our map, Al Ghubaiba Metro Station is about 3.3 km away, around 10 minutes by car, and Dubai World Trade Centre about 12 minutes by car. Nikki Beach is about 3.6 km away. Ask DAMAC for the service charge estimate. The listing does not state the ownership type, so confirm it before you book.
