The unit size, tower, floor and view are not specified. Buyers should verify all of these from the SPA or title deed. The tower is important as handover timing and view orientation vary.

Frequently asked questions

How does AED 1,700,000 compare to DLD transactions?

Recent DLD 1BR transactions for Binghatti Skyrise include AED 2,039,999 for 849 sqft (Tower B, 22 Sep 2026), AED 1,905,000 for 831 sqft (Tower A, 11 Sep 2026), AED 1,625,000 for 831 sqft (Tower A, 10 Sep 2026) and AED 1,400,000 for 762 sqft (Tower B, 29 Sep 2026). The asking price of AED 1,700,000 falls within the transacted range and is below most comparable transactions.

What size is this 1BR?

The agent brief does not state the unit size. Published 1BR floor plans in Binghatti Skyrise show sizes of 762, 831, 849 and 938 sqft. Based on the AED 2,000,000 OP, the unit is most likely the 831 or 849 sqft variant (AED 2,407 or AED 2,356 per sqft at OP). The smaller 762 sqft units have lower OPs. Buyers should confirm the exact size from the SPA or title deed.

Is the 15% discount genuine?

The stated OP of AED 2,000,000 and selling price of AED 1,700,000 give a 15% discount (AED 300,000 saving). DLD data supports this: a 849 sqft unit transacted at AED 2,039,999 in September 2026, consistent with a AED 2M launch price. Active listings for 849 sqft 1BR units start at AED 1,940,000. At AED 1,700,000, this would be the lowest priced 1BR in the building if for a comparable size.

When is the handover?

The agent states December 2026. Property Finder, Bayut and Metropolitan all indicate the official handover is Q4 2026. This is consistent. However, a previous agent listing for a studio in the same building stated Q4 2027, suggesting potential delays. Buyers should confirm the current timeline.

What should buyers verify?

Buyers should confirm the unit size (not stated in brief), which tower (A, B or C) the unit is in, the exact floor and view orientation, and the remaining payment schedule. The 15% discount is significant but size-dependent in terms of per-sqft value.
