Urgent Sale | 14.9% Below OP | 1 BR in Skyvue Stellar

Overview of the deal

A one-bedroom apartment at Skyvue Stellar, the Sobha Realty tower in Sobha Hartland II, Bukadra, is available as an urgent sale at AED 1,485,000. The seller puts the original price plus the 4% DLD fee at AED 1,745,829, so the asking price is AED 260,829 lower, a discount of about 14.9%.

The tower is under construction, with handover expected in 2029. Resales like this appear when an owner needs to sell within a shorter timeframe. For anyone who wants to buy property in Dubai below the launch figure, they are one of the few routes in.

The unit

A compact one-bedroom layout with its own balcony, placed high in the tower.

• Size: approximately 633 sq ft

• Floor: between levels 34 and 38

• View: community and amenities

• Balcony: yes

• Expected handover: 2029

Few owners sell a 1 bedroom apartment Dubai-wide for less than they paid, which makes this unit an exception. The size suits a single owner or a couple.

The building and community

Skyvue Stellar sits within Sobha Hartland II, the Sobha Realty community in Bukadra. Buyers who follow Sobha projects will know Sobha Realty for its attention to build quality. It is a premium developer best known for the Sobha Hartland communities.

When Sobha Hartland apartments change hands before completion, the new owner takes over whatever is left of the developer's instalment schedule, so the payment position below matters as much as the discount. No amenities list is confirmed for the tower yet, so ask us for the developer's current brochure.

Price, discount and payment position

The asking price is AED 1,485,000. On transfer, the buyer pays:

• Payment to seller: AED 302,483

• DLD transfer fee (4% of the original price plus AED 40): AED 67,187

• Trustee office fee: AED 5,250

• Buyer's agency commission (2% plus VAT): AED 31,185

That makes AED 406,105 due on transfer. The remaining developer plan of AED 1,182,517 then continues:

• 24 months from booking date: AED 168,931

• 36 months from booking date: AED 168,931

• 42 months from booking date: AED 168,931

• On handover: AED 675,724

The total cost for the buyer, fees included, is AED 1,588,622. The instalments run from the original booking date, so we confirm the calendar dates with the developer before you commit. The payment plan Dubai developers set at launch passes to the new owner on transfer.

Why this deal and for whom

The price is about 14.9% below the seller's original cost including the DLD fee, and only around a quarter of the total outlay is due on transfer.

That suits a buyer focused on Dubai property investment who is comfortable waiting until 2029. It also suits an end user who wants a Sobha address and prefers to pay in stages. Among the off-plan projects Dubai buyers compare today, a discounted resale is a different proposition from buying at launch.
