The handover date (Dec 2026) is too close or already past to estimate the dates. Ask the developer for its current schedule.
Your payments go into the project's escrow account, which RERA watches, not straight to the developer.

A mortgage at the keys

Add a mortgage for the balance due at the keysUp to 80% of the price.

Before you buy

Pay into the project's escrow account only.: Every off-plan project in Dubai must have an escrow account at a bank, watched by RERA. Pay into that account, never to a person. Ask for the account number.
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. "Rent and yield" below gives the figure for this project.
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.

Rent and yield

Gross yield at the from price⁠Rent ÷ price: 6.1%
Net yield at the from price⁠(Rent − service charge) ÷ (price + DLD fee): 4.9%
Typical gross yield of similar ready homes: 9.2%
Median rent of 1-bed apartments in Liwan⁠: AED 55,000 a year
Service charge a year, from the keys⁠The area median, AED 11 per sq ft from 38 buildings, as of 2023, for the smallest home (819 sq ft): AED 9,009
Rent contracts counted: 1,357
Rented between: Apr 1, 2025 and Mar 31, 2026

1-bed apartment: AED 55,000 a year
2-bed apartment: AED 78,000 a year
3-bed apartment: AED 97,500 a year

Gross yield is a year's rent before costs, as a share of the price. At the from price: AED 55,000 ÷ AED 900,000 = 6.1%. The home earns nothing until the keys, and new buildings often rent for more than older ones.

We don't take off empty months, management or furnishing. How we work out yields

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.

Handover is listed for December 2026, next month at the time of writing. Ask the developer for the current status of the building and its completion certificate.

The three- and four-bedroom homes are duplexes of about 2,136 and 2,768 sq ft, listed with a pool, so ask what that pool is and what it adds to the service charge. The one- to four-bedroom apartments each have storage space or a maid's room. Residents get a golf zone, a meditation room, sauna and steam rooms, a party hall and a 20-seat cinema room.
