Dubai Silicon Oasis area guide →Is the property ready or still under construction?
The listing gives no handover date. The project passport gives 2009 as the completion year.
Can this lot be bought with a mortgage, and what would the payment be?
UAE banks lend on ready homes, and the listing does not confirm that this property is ready. If it has been handed over, the numbers are: a resident puts down from 20%, here AED 199 000; a loan of AED 796 000 over 25 years at 3.75–4.99% a year comes to roughly AED 4 100–4 600 a month. A non-resident puts down from 40% (AED 398 000) and pays about AED 3 100–3 500 a month. The bank approves the rate and the amount.
Run your own numbers in the mortgage calculator →What costs come on top of the price?
The main one is the Dubai Land Department registration fee: 4% of the price, AED 39 800 for this lot. With a mortgage the bank charges for processing and valuation, and the mortgage is registered for a separate fee. I will send the full calculation for this lot on request.
Does buying this lot qualify for a UAE residence visa?
On price the lot clears the classic threshold for the two-year residence visa, AED 750 000. It is AED 1 005 000 short of the 10-year Golden Visa, granted from AED 2 000 000. The threshold is measured by the Dubai Land Department valuation, not the contract, and only freehold qualifies.
