Benchmark Verification Required

The agent labels this as a distress deal but has not stated an original purchase price or market benchmark. DPF cannot verify the distress claim or calculate a savings figure without a stated benchmark.

For context, available 2-bedroom units in The Quayside are listed from AED 3,770,000 to AED 3,910,000 on secondary portals, all at 1,420 sqft. The asking price of AED 3,650,000 falls below this available inventory range by AED 120,000 to AED 260,000. The original launch starting price for 2-bedroom units was approximately AED 3,299,828. Buyers should review DLD transaction records for recent sales to establish current market value.

Handover Date Discrepancy

The agent states handover in Q3 2027. Published Ellington Properties timelines indicate Q1 2026 (January 2026) for The Quayside. As of September 2026, the project may already be completed or may have experienced delays. This is a significant discrepancy that DPF staff should clarify with the developer before publishing. If the building is already complete, the ready_status should be updated to Ready.

Verification Notes

The asking price, built-up area, 2-bedroom plus maid configuration, full Burj Khalifa view and handover date (Q3 2027) are sourced from the agent brief received in September 2026. No original purchase price or market benchmark has been supplied. Published Ellington timelines indicate Q1 2026 handover, which conflicts with the agent's stated Q3 2027. The price per square foot of AED 2,570 is calculated from the asking price and stated built-up area. Project details are drawn from Ellington Properties and secondary market sources. Buyers should independently confirm all figures, including the seller's SPA, payment history, remaining instalments, and most critically the current handover status, with the developer before committing.
