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. "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: 4.9%
Net yield at the from price⁠(Rent − service charge) ÷ (price + DLD fee): 3.8%
Typical gross yield of similar ready homes: 7.4%
Median rent of studio apartments in Business Bay⁠: AED 73,000 a year
Service charge a year, from the keys⁠The area median, AED 30 per sq ft from 36 buildings, as of 2024, for the smallest home (487 sq ft): AED 14,610
Rent contracts counted: 2,745
Rented between: Apr 1, 2025 and Mar 31, 2026

Studio apartment: AED 73,000 a year
1-bed apartment: AED 98,000 a year
2-bed apartment: AED 140,000 a year
3-bed apartment: AED 200,000 a year
4-bed apartment: AED 327,500 a year

Gross yield is a year's rent before costs, as a share of the price. At the from price: AED 73,000 ÷ AED 1,480,000 = 4.9%. 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.

About One River Point

One River Point is a 45-storey Ellington tower in Business Bay, with studios, apartments, duplexes and penthouses from AED 1,480,000 and handover listed for June 2027. The price check puts the from price per square foot 15% above 487 similar sales in Business Bay over the 12 months to November 2026.

Price is the first thing to check. The from price per square foot is 15% above 487 similar sales in Business Bay over the 12 months to November 2026. Ask for the price per square foot of your unit and compare it with other studios in the area.

The plan is 20% on booking, 50% during construction and 30% on handover. At the from price that is AED 296,000 to book, AED 740,000 during the build and AED 444,000 at handover. Separately, the 4% DLD fee comes to AED 59,200; ask when it is due. The listed handover is June 2027, about seven months from now, so ask Ellington for a construction update and how much of the 50% is now due.

The tower stands beside the Dubai Water Canal. It has studios, apartments with one to three bedrooms, and three- and four-bedroom duplexes and penthouses, from 487 to 5,847 sq ft including balconies. Each duplex and penthouse has its own terrace, a study and storage, and some units have a private pool, so ask which ones. Some layouts add a maid's room, a laundry room or a powder room.

By our map, Status Clinic is about 200 m away and Business Bay Metro Station about 1.1 km. Horizon English School, JSS School and Dubai International School are all about 1.4 to 1.5 km away, three to seven minutes by car by our estimate. Jumeirah Beach is about 3.7 km away, and Dubai Hills Golf Club about 14 minutes by car.
