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.
A mortgage at the keys
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. "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.

Gross yield is a year's rent before costs, as a share of the price. At the from price: AED 100,000 ÷ AED 2,950,000 = 3.4%. 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.

DAMAC Bay by Cavalli is a three-tower DAMAC Properties project in Dubai Harbour, branded with Cavalli, with one- to five-bedroom apartments and duplexes from AED 2,950,000 and a listed handover of September 2027. 80% is due before handover, and the from price is 28% above 37 similar one-bedroom sales in the project (12 months to November 2026).
The from price is 28% above 37 similar one-bedroom sales in DAMAC Bay (12 months to November 2026). The check compares price per square foot, not total price. Ask for prices on your exact floor and view.
The plan is 20% on booking, 60% during construction and 20% at handover. At the from price you pay AED 590,000 to book, AED 1,770,000 during the build and AED 590,000 at handover. The listed handover is about ten months away, so ask when the 60% construction payment falls due. Separately, the 4% DLD fee comes to AED 118,000; ask when it is due.
Apartments have one to three bedrooms, and duplexes of three to five bedrooms with private pools sit on the upper floors. The developer also offers full floors of 7 or 8 units, about 8,682 to 8,799 sq ft in total. The listed size range is 718 to 6,582 sq ft, but the unit sizes given run from about 663 sq ft for one bedroom to 6,473 sq ft for five, so check the floor plan of your unit. Homes are unfurnished, with kitchen appliances, walk-in wardrobes and balconies.
The Mina Seyahi tram stop is about 550 m away and Dubai Media City about 820 m. Marina Walk is about 940 m away and Marina Beach about 1.8 km.
