Where it is

Dubai Design District

Dubai Design District — the emirate's creative free zone on the canal, where the residential component came after the offices rather than before them.

  • creative-industry professionals
  • central canal-side location
  • scarce residential stock

What to check: d3 sits inside the TECOM free zone, so the ownership and registration position is not automatically the same as mainland Dubai. Establish from the title documentation which applies to the specific unit before going far.

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.
