High Floor | 1 BR + Storage | Motivated Seller

Overview

This is an off-plan 1 bedroom apartment with a separate storage room in Sobha Solis Tower B, part of the Sobha Solis development in Motor City. The developer is Sobha Realty, the building is under construction, and handover is expected in Q4 2027. The unit measures 577 square feet, sits on a high floor, and the asking price is AED 1,198,292.

It is a resale of an off-plan unit, so you buy the position from the current owner rather than from the developer's sales office. The listing describes the seller as motivated. For buyers looking at off-plan properties Dubai has in established communities, it offers a compact, smart-home apartment with a handover date just over a year away.

The home

The layout is a straightforward one-bedroom plan with one bathroom and a balcony. The extra storage room is the detail that stands out at this size: it takes suitcases, sports gear and seasonal items out of the bedroom and living area, which makes 577 square feet work harder. Floor-to-ceiling windows and the high-floor position give the rooms light and a view towards a local landmark.

• 1 bedroom and 1 bathroom
• 577 sq ft
• Separate storage room
• High floor with a balcony
• Smart home features
• Fully fitted kitchen with appliances
• Floor-to-ceiling windows
• Walk-in closet and built-in wardrobes
• Central air conditioning

The apartment will be delivered unfurnished, which leaves the choice of furniture to you or, if you plan to lease it, to your tenant brief.

Building and community

Sobha Solis is one of the Sobha projects in Motor City. The location has direct access to Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road, Hessa Street and Umm Suqeim Street, which connects residents to much of the city by road. Motor City apartments suit people who want a residential setting with quick links to those main roads.

The development plans a wide set of shared facilities, grouped here as listed by the owner:

• Pools and wellness: Olympic pool, shared swimming pools, children's pool, steam and sauna, shared spa
• Fitness and sport: gym, calisthenics area, jogging track, tennis, table tennis, outdoor rock climbing, indoor rock climbing for kids, parkour leisure area
• Leisure and social: club house, lounge, library, music studio, indoor games room, outdoor cinema
• Outdoors: zen garden, barbecue area, dog park, kids' play area
• Building services: concierge, 24/7 security and CCTV

Few one-bedroom buyers will use all of these, but the range is broad enough that residents can exercise, relax and meet friends without leaving the development.

Price, fees and payment

The asking price is AED 1,198,292, which is roughly AED 2,077 per square foot. Because this is an off-plan resale, the price normally covers the amount the seller has already paid to the developer plus the seller's premium or discount, and the buyer takes over the remaining instalments. Ask us for the exact paid-to-date figure and the outstanding schedule before you make an offer, because that determines how much cash you need now.

• Dubai Land Department fee: 4% of the price, about AED 47,932
• Developer NOC: issued by Sobha Realty for the transfer; the fee is confirmed by the developer
• Agency commission: agreed in writing before an offer is made
• Remaining instalments: paid to the developer under the original payment plan Dubai buyers sign with Sobha

Investment or living

For an end user, the appeal is simple: a new 1 bedroom apartment Dubai buyers can move into from late 2027, in a development with a long amenity list. For an investor, the facts that matter are the size, the storage room, the high floor and the handover date. Compared with ready apartments for sale in Dubai, the cost here is spread over the remaining instalments. As a Dubai property investment, an off-plan resale lets you hold a unit before completion and decide nearer handover whether to live in it, lease it or sell it.

We do not quote a rental yield for this unit because the building is not finished. When it is close to completion, we can share current rents for comparable Motor City units.

Buying process with Mahboob Estate

Buying an off-plan resale has a few extra steps compared with a ready home. As a real estate agency Dubai investors use for both types, we take care of them in order.

• Review: we share the sale and purchase agreement details, the paid-to-date amount and the remaining schedule
• Offer and agreement: once a price is agreed, buyer and seller sign the sale agreement (Form F)
• Developer NOC: the seller applies to Sobha Realty for the no-objection certificate
• Transfer: the Oqood registration is moved to your name at the Dubai Land Department and the fees are paid
• Until handover: you pay the remaining instalments to the developer and receive the keys on completion

If you want to buy property in Dubai while living abroad, most of these steps can be handled remotely. Every step follows standard Dubai real estate procedure, and we explain each document as it comes up. We can also line up other properties for sale in Dubai in the same budget for comparison.
