Why the Price Qualifies as Below OP
The agent states the original purchase price was AED 2,726,560 per unit. The asking price of AED 2,150,000 represents a saving of AED 576,560, equal to 21.1% off the original price. Calculation: 576,560 divided by 2,726,560 equals 21.15%, rounded to 21.1%.
DLD transaction records for 4-bedroom townhouses in the Maldives sub-clusters show prices ranging from AED 2,100,000 to AED 3,213,000, all for units of 2,194 sqft. The asking price of AED 2,150,000 sits near the lower end of the DLD transaction range. However, the agent-stated size of 1,550 sqft is materially different from the 2,194 sqft recorded in DLD for 4BR units. This size discrepancy means the per-sqft rates are not directly comparable between the agent-stated unit and DLD-recorded transactions.
Size Discrepancy Note
The agent states the built-up area as 1,550 sqft. DLD transaction records consistently show 4-bedroom townhouses in the Maldives cluster at 2,194 sqft. This is a significant difference of 644 sqft. Possible explanations include a different unit type or layout within the cluster, a different measurement basis, or an error in the brief. Buyers should verify the exact built-up area against the SPA and floor plan before proceeding. If the actual size is 2,194 sqft, the rate per sqft at the asking price would be AED 980, and the saving against the stated OP would need recalculation if the OP also corresponds to a different size.

Verification Notes
The asking price, original price, size (1,550 sqft), bedroom count and availability of 4 units are from the agent brief. The 21.1% discount and AED 576,560 saving are calculated figures. The agent-stated size of 1,550 sqft differs significantly from the DLD-recorded 2,194 sqft for 4BR townhouses in the Maldives cluster; this must be verified against the SPA. DLD 4BR transactions range from AED 2,100,000 to AED 3,213,000. The agent did not specify a handover date or payment plan; Property Finder shows Q4 2028 to Q2 2029 delivery across DAMAC Islands. Buyers should verify the size, original price, specific sub-cluster, handover date and remaining payment obligations.
