Why This Price Qualifies as Below OP
The seller originally purchased this apartment at the Emaar developer price of AED 1,574,888. The current asking price of AED 1,250,000 produces a saving of AED 324,888, equivalent to a 20.6% reduction. The price was recently reduced a further AED 50,000 from AED 1,300,000.
The OP is confirmed with a high degree of confidence. Multiple initial-sale listings on Dubizzle show the developer price for the 728 sqft 1BR layout in Terra Heights Building 1 at exactly AED 1,574,888, matching the agent's stated OP to the AED. Additionally, a separate resale listing by Elite Merit Real Estate for the same 728 sqft layout is priced at AED 1,350,000 and described as 14% below OP, which implies an OP of approximately AED 1,570,000, closely corroborating the figure.
At AED 1,250,000, this unit is AED 100,000 below even the other distress resale at AED 1,350,000, making it the lowest priced 1-bedroom in Terra Heights by a considerable margin.
