What is an off-plan property in Dubai?

An off-plan property is a unit purchased directly from the developer before construction is completed, often at a lower price with flexible payment plans.

Why invest in off-plan properties in Dubai?

Off-plan investments provide early access to new developments, lower entry prices, and higher potential for capital appreciation once the project is completed.

What are the payment plans like?

Most developers offer easy installment plans often 10–20% upfront, with staged payments throughout construction.
