Urgent Sale | 11.5% Below OP | 1 BR in LIV Oceanside

Overview of the deal

A 1 bedroom apartment at LIV Oceanside, a tower by LIV Developers on Dubai Islands, is being resold by an owner who wants to exit before handover. The asking price is AED 2,724,000, which the owner states is 11.5% below the original price plus the 4% DLD fee. Like many off-plan properties Dubai owners resell before completion, the unit changes hands through a transfer while the developer's schedule keeps running, with handover expected in Q4 2027.

Urgent resales move quickly among the apartments for sale in Dubai, so every figure here is the owner's and should be verified at enquiry. The unit may be reserved, repriced or withdrawn before this page is updated.

The building and community

LIV Oceanside is a residential tower by LIV Developers on Dubai Islands, a community that is still being built out. That places it among the waterfront properties Dubai has added in recent years. The owner has not listed building amenities, so ask for the developer's specification if facilities matter to you.

Price, discount and payment position

The owner puts the original price plus 4% DLD at AED 3,077,930 against a selling price of AED 2,724,000, a stated discount of AED 353,930, or 11.5%. The discount is measured on that combined figure, not on the original price alone. On transfer, the buyer pays:

• Payment to seller: AED 504,341

• DLD transfer fee (4% of original price plus AED 40): AED 118,422

• Trustee office fee: AED 5,250

• Buyer's agency commission (2% plus VAT): AED 57,204

The owner gives the total on transfer as AED 685,217. After that, the buyer takes over the staged payment plan Dubai developers commonly use for towers under construction:

• 17 September 2026: AED 147,977 (this date has passed)

• 14 February 2027: AED 147,977

• 14 July 2027: AED 147,977

• On completion: AED 1,775,728

The owner states the total remaining plan as AED 2,219,659 and the total cost for the buyer as AED 2,904,876. The September 2026 instalment is still counted in the remaining plan, so confirm at enquiry whether it has been paid.

Why this deal and for whom

The case is simple: a mid-floor unit with a marina view, priced below the owner's stated original price plus DLD. Unlike new launches among off-plan projects Dubai developers are selling today, the floor range, view and price are already fixed. It may suit someone who wants to buy property in Dubai now, pay a defined sum on transfer and spread the rest until completion, or anyone after a 1 bedroom apartment Dubai can deliver in late 2027.

Anyone treating this as Dubai property investment should compare recent resale prices and rental demand independently. Nothing here is a valuation or a promised return.

What happens next

• Contact Mahboob Estate to confirm the unit is available and the price is unchanged.

• Review the seller's payment history and the developer's transfer requirements.

• Agree terms and sign the sale agreement.

• Complete the transfer at the trustee office and settle the transfer payments listed above.
