Layouts and the handover date come from the sales-launch announcement; the date
of that announcement is shown next to the prices. It is what the developer
claimed at launch, not a registry record — off-plan, phasing and dates get
revised. I will send the current ones over WhatsApp.
Developer prices
These are the starting prices as of the date shown, not today's list: off-plan
they are revised several times a year, and more often upwards than down.

version of this page.
About the building
A residential building in Dubai South. Developer — Marquis Developers.
About the project
Marquis Aura is a residential building in Dubai South, handover is due Q2 2029.
The developer is Marquis Developers.
The building holds 220 apartments in total. Layouts, according to the sales-launch announcement — studios, 1, 2 and 3 bedrooms.
The database has nothing for this project at the moment: lots come and go here, and it refreshes nightly.
Where it is
The pin is placed by district — I send the exact address on request.
Nothing in the stock for this project right now
Listings for Marquis Aura do not turn up every day. Message me — I will check the closed bases and suggest similar options nearby, in Dubai South.
The final payment on this building falls in 2029 — under off-plan plans that is
40–60% of the price in one go. A UAE bank closes it: the flat becomes the security,
and nothing is added on top of what the developer has already been paid.
Up to 80% of the appraised value, no extra down payment
3.99% fixed for three years, up to 25 years in term
6–12 months before the keys — the bank wants six months of income history
Already been invoiced, or missed the date? That is not a dead end either — write and
we will look at what the developer will accept.
The sales-launch announcement says Q2 2029. The date in the contract for a particular unit can differ — I check it before the deal.
What layouts are there in Marquis Aura?
Studios, 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom and 3-bedroom, according to the sales-launch announcement. Which sizes are actually free right now depends on what is on the market; I will send the current list.
Where is Marquis Aura?
Dubai South. The airport city: Al Maktoum International, Expo City and a vast planned district on the Abu Dhabi side of the emirate.
How much does an apartment in Marquis Aura cost?
Our database has no open listings for Marquis Aura at the moment. I will check the price of the layout you want against the closed databases and send it together with the deal costs.
Dubai South’s free zone issues a same-day e-licence for qualifying digital activities, from AED 12 500, entirely online. At the national level the goal is bigger: from 1.2 million companies today to more than 2 million by 2031, plus at least ten new unicorns.
August 2026 in numbers: about 10 900 homes sold for AED 23.4bn, average prices 1.7% below a year earlier, three quarters of sales off-plan, and Dubai South leading on volume. What changed over the season and what to expect this autumn.
fDi Markets data shows Dubai attracted 754 new greenfield creative-industry projects in 2025, worth $3.76bn and creating 19 304 jobs, the top city out of 233 for the fourth year running. Separately, Al Maktoum airport is getting a 50km underground people mover. What both mean for rental demand.
The RTA is planning a 55 km, five-station Airport Express Line from DXB via Al Jaddaf and Al Khail Road to JVC and Al Maktoum, with flight check-in at the stations. Etihad Rail is separately building a 350 km/h Abu Dhabi–Dubai line with a 30-minute journey. What it means for JVC and Al Jaddaf.
July 2026: 13 930 sales worth AED 34.9bn, down about 31% in number on a record July 2025. August: around 11 600 sales worth AED 27.9bn, down 37% in number and 44% in value. Where the slowdown is real, and where it is a base effect.
It is easy to fall into two extremes about a cultural landmark next door — that it automatically lifts prices, or that it means nothing. Neither is right.
A developer building in Dubai South. Ownership and residency are separate things here, and the practical consequences of leaving are smaller than most owners fear — with exceptions.
The developer of the residential districts around Al Maktoum International. What an infrastructure-led location offers, and how to think about a thesis that depends on someone else’s timetable.
I will tell you which layouts are available now, what entry really costs and what the people who live in or let the building think of it — no marketing language.
