What separates them
Townhouses and villas: a four-bedroom townhouse from AED 4,160,000 at 2,521 sq ft, a five-bedroom twin villa from AED 7.29M, and a four-bedroom standalone from AED 9.32M. Service charge AED 4.5 per sq ft, the lowest here, and handover in August 2029, the earliest here. The 5 and 6-bedroom standalone villas have sold out.
Rugby Sevens is 12 minutes, Academic City 20, Downtown 30 to 35.
Standalone villas in three, four and five bedrooms from AED 6.76M, 8.30M and 11.30M. Built area 3,400 to 5,800 sq ft on plots of 3,800 to 6,800.
The plan is 80/20 and the 20% at handover can be financed. Expo City and DWC are both 10 minutes, Dubai Hills 20, Marina 25.
Four clusters under one name and one handover date, running three different payment plans. Ghadeer, Mahra, Roudah and Dana share an amenity list and a completion date. They do not share a price, a height or a schedule.
The first-floor homes are a different product. The buildings step back, so that floor carries deep terraces sold inside the area — about AED 555 per sq ft for the extra space, against roughly AED 1,900 for the rest of the building. The floor premium is 2% to 3% bottom to top, so the aspect moves the price more than the height does.
678 residences and 14 retail units across three towers of 21 levels, inside the Siora masterplan on Island B. Ceilings run 3.2 m in the living areas. The earlier release sold out; Tower B is the live one.
The plan is 10 / 40 / 50 at even intervals measured from your booking date rather than construction milestones, and the deposit is the lowest on this page.
Two towers, 590 homes, 796 to 5,985 sq ft. Floor-to-ceiling height is 3.6 m on every residential floor — not the podium levels only, and not the penthouses only.
The clubhouse runs four levels: co-working, wellness, retreat and social. The service charge is AED 21 per sq ft, which is what four levels of clubhouse and this specification cost to run.
Six buildings and 903 homes in Phase 1, with a hotel, private beach, jazz club and cinema on site. Heights run from G+20 at Sunset down to G+6 at the Shores buildings.
Read the floor ladder before you pick. The upper floors sold first, so the homes left at the lower prices are the low floors — and a low floor here faces the building in front.
What it costs to buy in Dubai
4% to register, paid once, plus admin fees. Those vary by developer and by service, so we quote them on your unit rather than publish a figure that will be wrong for your deal.
You pay no commission on any of these. The developer pays the agent on a launch. That is true whoever you buy through.
No VAT on the home. No property tax. No capital gains tax. No tax on the rent.

How we work
The developer pays us. You pay us nothing, and your cost is the same whether you use us or go direct.
The terrace pricing at Expo Valley Views. The ceiling height on every floor at Eltiera. The floor ladder at Meriva. We work those out before a page goes up, and we show you the working.
Every project page carries that list. It is the most useful part of the page.

The cash you can put down, the handover you can wait for, the product you actually want. Send us those three and we will tell you which of these fits — and which to ignore. Zero commission either way.
