Orra
2 BR · Apartment
About the building
30-storey residential building in Dubai Marina, completed in 2012. Developer — Orra Real Estate Development. Architect — Al Hawraa Engineering Consultants.
Where it is
Dubai Marina
The original high-rise waterfront: a dense forest of towers around a man-made marina, and still the busiest rental market in the city.
- reliable rental income
- car-free living
- fast resale
What to check: Much of the stock is fifteen to twenty years old and building condition varies enormously. Get the service charge history and walk the common areas before you offer — an unmaintained tower will cost you more than the discount you got.

Dubai Marina area guide →Is the property ready or still under construction?
The listing gives no handover date. The project passport gives 2012 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 520 000; a loan of AED 2 080 000 over 25 years at 3.75–4.99% a year comes to roughly AED 10 700–12 100 a month. A non-resident puts down from 40% (AED 1 040 000) and pays about AED 8 000–9 100 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 104 000 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, yes: the 10-year Golden Visa is granted for property from AED 2 000 000, and this lot is priced at AED 2 600 000. The threshold is measured by the Dubai Land Department valuation, not the contract, and only freehold qualifies.
