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 4,136,000 = 2.4%. 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.

The from price per square foot at W Residences at Dubai Harbour is about 27% below 39 one-bedroom off-plan sales in the project over the 12 months to November 2026. Arada's project has apartments, duplexes and penthouses with one to five bedrooms from AED 4,136,000, and the listed handover is December 2027.
The Dubai Land Department lists 39 one-bedroom off-plan sales in W Residences at Dubai Harbour in the 12 months to November 2026. The from price per square foot is about 27% below their median. Ask which unit, floor and view the from price is for.
The plan is 10% on booking, 50% during construction and 40% at handover. At the from price that is AED 413,600, AED 2,068,000 and AED 1,654,400. Separately, the 4% DLD fee comes to AED 165,440; ask when it is due. The listed handover is December 2027, about 13 months away, so ask for the dated payment schedule.
The project has one- to four-bedroom apartments, duplexes and five-bedroom penthouses. The listing gives a range of 1,216 to 11,234 sq ft, but it gives 1,072 sq ft for one bedroom, below the bottom of that range, so check the floor plans. The developer lists a 200-metre infinity pool, a gym, a spa, children's pool and play area, landscaped gardens, concierge services and covered parking. Homes have smart home technology and central air conditioning.
Top Medical Center is about 180 m away and Mina Seyahi Tram Stop about 530 m. Marina Walk is about 830 m away and Dubai Media City about 850 m. Marina Beach Dubai is about 1.7 km away, and Regent International School about 3.1 km.
