Urgent Sale | 18.1% Below OP | 2 BR in Samana Skyviews

Overview of the deal

An owner in Samana Skyviews by Samana, Dubai Production City, is selling a two-bedroom apartment before handover for AED 1,250,000, about 18.1% below the original price plus the 4% Dubai Land Department fee. Handover is expected in Q4 2028.

In Dubai real estate, urgent resales like this happen when an owner needs to exit before completion. You pay part of the price on transfer and take over the remaining developer instalments. Few properties for sale in Dubai list this far below the original cost, so they are often reserved quickly.

The unit

The apartment measures 1,128 sq ft on a mid floor and looks over the building's amenities. Its standout feature is a private pool on the balcony, the design Samana is known for.

• Type: two-bedroom apartment

• Size: 1,128 sq ft

• Floor: between 8 and 13

• View: amenities

• Private pool on the balcony

• Expected handover: Q4 2028

Next to any 2 bedroom apartment Dubai has under construction at this budget, the balcony pool is what sets this unit apart.

The building and community

Samana Skyviews is an apartment project by Samana Developers in Dubai Production City. Samana is known for accessible residences with private pool apartments and flexible payment plans. The amenities list is not confirmed for this listing, so ask us for the developer's brochure.

Price, discount and payment position

The original price plus the 4% DLD fee came to AED 1,525,888. The asking price is AED 1,250,000, a difference of AED 275,888, or about 18.1%. On transfer, the buyer pays:

• Payment to the seller: AED 369,680

• DLD transfer fee (4% plus AED 40): AED 58,728

• DLD registration trustee fee including 5% VAT: AED 5,250

• Buyer's agent commission (2% plus 5% VAT): AED 26,250

That is AED 459,908 on transfer. The remaining developer schedule, as published by the owner, totals AED 880,320:

• July 2026: AED 146,720 (this date has passed)

• September 2026: AED 14,672 (this date has passed)

• October 2026: AED 14,672 (due this month)

• Spread over 45 months: AED 704,256

The total cost for the buyer comes to AED 1,340,228. As the July and September 2026 dates have passed, we confirm with the seller whether those instalments are paid before you offer, since that changes the balance you take over.

Why this deal and for whom

You enter below the original price and still keep a long schedule, with most of the balance spread over 45 months. A new payment plan Dubai developers offer at launch gives a similar wait at full launch pricing.

This suits Dubai property investment buyers comfortable holding until late 2028, and end users who want a two-bedroom home with its own pool. Among apartments for sale in Dubai near AED 1.25 million, a balcony pool is not standard. Many units in off-plan projects Dubai investors bought at launch return to the market this way.

FAQ

Quick answers on this unit.

Is the 18.1% discount guaranteed?

No. It compares the asking price with the original price plus DLD fee. It is not a valuation, and the price can change, so we confirm it when you enquire.

How much cash do I need on transfer?

Based on the owner's figures, AED 459,908, which may change once the status of the 2026 instalments is confirmed.

When is handover?

Expected in Q4 2028, with the final date set by the developer. If you want to buy property in Dubai with time before completion, that gives you time to plan.
