Important: Price Discrepancy
The agent brief states AED 18,000,000 and claims this is the lowest on market. However, the same penthouse (4,814 sqft total, same agent Mehrnoosh Babaei at fam Properties, ref AS-159644) was found actively listed at AED 17,000,000 on fam Properties as of October 2026. This is AED 1,000,000 below the quoted price. If this is the same unit, the actual current asking may be AED 17,000,000. Buyers should verify the current price directly with the agent.
Below OP Analysis
At AED 18,000,000, the stated saving is AED 1,200,000 (6.2%) from the OP of AED 19,200,000. At the fam Properties listed price of AED 17,000,000, the saving would be AED 2,200,000 (11.5%). The OP of AED 19,200,000 cannot be verified through public DLD records. No penthouse or 4BR DLD transaction appears in the publicly accessible records for this building. The highest visible DLD sale is AED 8,000,000 for a 3BR unit. The OP claim should be treated with caution.

- AED 4,650,000 to AED 5,412,287 for 3BR units
- AED 2,019,522 to AED 2,448,507 for 1BR units

Hotel Apartment Classification
Avani Palm View Hotel and Suites is a hotel-operated building developed by Al Fahim Group and managed by Minor Hotels under the Avani brand. The 264 units are classified as serviced apartments, though DLD records list them as apartments. Units are privately owned and can be rented independently. Buyers should understand the hotel management structure, associated service charges, any revenue-sharing or rental pool arrangements, and the implications for resale liquidity. Large hotel apartment penthouses can have limited resale markets compared to residential penthouses in prime freehold towers.

Verification Notes
The asking price, stated OP, size, high floor, negotiable status and reduced-from figure are from the agent brief. The 4,656 sqft plus 157 sqft balcony matches the portal listing total of 4,814 sqft. Bedrooms confirmed as 4 (plus maid, driver and office rooms). The OP of AED 19,200,000 is unverifiable through public DLD data. The same unit appears to be listed at AED 17,000,000 on fam Properties by the same agent, contradicting the AED 18,000,000 figure and the lowest on market claim. The reduced from AED 22,000,000 claim is also unverifiable. Buyers should negotiate based on the AED 17,000,000 listing, verify the OP with SPA documentation, and understand the hotel management obligations and service charges.
