Questions and answers about lot NP1-232567

How much is this 1-bedroom apartment in Porto Playa?

Lot NP1-232567 is priced at AED 1 660 000, about $452 000. The listing does not state a size, so no price per square foot is given.

How much has the price of this lot been cut?

The price before the cut was AED 2 035 000; it is now AED 1 660 000 — AED 375 000 less, or 18%.

Is the property ready or still under construction?

The handover date in the listing is Q1 2027. Until then payments follow the developer's payment plan. The date comes from the seller and is checked against the sale agreement before a deal.

Can I get a mortgage on this lot while it is still under construction?

During construction the buyer pays the developer under the payment plan — UAE banks grant standard mortgages on ready homes. A loan is possible for the final payment, once the property has its completion certificate.

Handover payment

A mortgage covers the final instalment

The final payment on this building falls in 2027 — 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.
