1 Bedroom Apartment for Sale in Greenside Residence, Dubai Hills Estate — AED 1,628,540 | Zero-Profit Seller Exit at OP Plus DLD | 90% Paid | 10% to Handover Q2 2027 | 748 Sq Ft | Emaar

Seller Makes Zero — Exiting at Exact Cost Recovery | OP AED 1,565,888 | SP = OP + DLD | 90% Deployed for No Return | Only AED 156,589 Remaining to Handover | 748 Sq Ft | AED 2,177/sqft | Community View | Greenside Residence | Dubai Hills Estate | Emaar | Q2 2027

A rare and precisely defined distress configuration: a seller who has invested approximately AED 1,471,951 into this asset — 90% of the purchase price plus the DLD they paid at registration — is asking for exactly that amount back and nothing more. The asking price of AED 1,628,540 is mathematically equal to the seller’s original purchase price (AED 1,565,888) plus their 4% DLD paid (approximately AED 62,652). The seller is making zero net return. After holding a position in a Dubai Hills Estate Emaar off-plan asset for the full duration of the project cycle, with 90% of the purchase price deployed and one payment remaining, this seller has decided that the priority is a clean, swift exit at cost rather than a campaign to extract a profit margin from the secondary market. That decision creates a specific and unusual opportunity for a buyer: acquiring a near-handover Emaar 1-bedroom in Greenside Residence, Dubai Hills Estate at the seller’s exact documented cost basis — not above it. The seller is not making a loss in the conventional sense — but in a market where Greenside Residence has been in development since launch and where Dubai Hills Estate Emaar apartment values have consistently tracked at or above original launch prices — a seller who is willing to exit at cost is absorbing the full opportunity cost of their capital deployment for zero gain, and transferring any market appreciation that has occurred since launch entirely to the buyer. Only 10% of the original purchase price remains payable to Emaar — AED 156,588.80 — at the Q2 2027 handover. Approximately 12 months from now, the buyer makes a single remaining payment to Emaar and receives the title deed and keys to a 748 sq ft Emaar-built, community-facing 1-bedroom in one of Dubai’s most consistently valued and most comprehensively amenitised premium residential communities. The capital efficiency of this near-handover entry is exceptional: the buyer’s total acquisition cost is AED 1,628,540 (SP) plus their own DLD, agency, and admin — approximately AED 1,728,462 all-in — against a near-term handover in a community where Emaar’s delivery certainty is the most established in the Dubai apartment market. The seller’s zero-profit exit is the distress. The buyer’s advantage is entering at the seller’s cost basis on a near-handover asset with only one milestone remaining.

The Zero-Profit Distress Case — Why This Seller’s Exit Creates a Buyer’s Opportunity

The Seller’s Position

• OP: AED 1,565,888
• DLD Paid by Seller (4%): Approximately AED 62,652
• Seller Total Documented Cost: AED 1,628,540
• 90% Paid to Emaar: Approximately AED 1,409,299
• DLD Paid: Approximately AED 62,652
• Total Seller Cash Deployed to Date: Approximately AED 1,471,951
• Seller Asking Price: AED 1,628,540
• Seller Net Gain: Zero — asking price equals total documented cost exactly

What This Means for the Buyer

• Buyer Acquires At: AED 1,628,540 — the seller’s exact documented cost basis
• Buyer Pays Now to Seller: Approximately AED 1,471,951 (SP minus 10% remaining to Emaar)
• Remaining Payable to Emaar at Q2 2027 Handover: Approximately AED 156,589
• Buyer DLD (4% of SP): AED 65,142
• Buyer Admin: Approximately AED 580
• Buyer Agency (2% + VAT): Approximately AED 34,200
• Total Buyer All-In: Approximately AED 1,728,462
• Total Remaining Capital Required from Buyer (all fees + final Emaar tranche): Approximately AED 256,511

The seller has deployed approximately AED 1,471,951 into this asset and is recovering exactly that amount — zero profit, zero return on capital for the full investment duration. The buyer who acquires at this price enters at the seller’s own cost basis — which in a project and community where values have consistently performed since launch, means the buyer is not paying a market premium above the seller’s entry cost. Any gap between the seller’s OP + DLD basis and the current secondary market value of a comparable Greenside Residence 1-bedroom represents paper equity for the buyer from day one. The buyer should verify current comparable Greenside Residence 1-bedroom secondary market prices against the DLD registry and major portals as part of due diligence — if comparables are trading above AED 1,628,540, the zero-profit seller exit creates an immediate market discount for the buyer, in addition to the capital efficiency advantage of the near-handover position with only 10% remaining.

The Near-Handover Capital Efficiency — 90% Paid, One Milestone Remaining

The 90% payment position of this Greenside Residence 1-bedroom is one of the most capital-efficient near-handover configurations available in the Dubai Hills Estate off-plan secondary market. The seller has fulfilled every Emaar payment obligation to date — approximately AED 1,409,299 representing 90% of the original purchase price — meaning the remaining Emaar obligation that the buyer assumes as part of the assignment is only 10% of the OP: approximately AED 156,589. That single remaining milestone is payable to Emaar at Q2 2027 handover — approximately 12 months from now — and it is the last financial obligation before the buyer receives the DLD-registered title deed and keys. For a buyer committing to this assignment, the forward capital commitment is extremely clearly structured: compensate the seller (approximately AED 1,471,951 now, representing SP minus the remaining Emaar balance), pay the buyer’s own DLD and agency fees, and then make one final payment of approximately AED 156,589 to Emaar in Q2 2027 at the point of key collection. The construction risk that comes with a 24-month or 36-month remaining handover simply does not apply here — at 10% remaining, the project is in its final delivery phase and Emaar’s Q2 2027 completion timeline is substantiated by the advanced construction stage. Near-handover distress at this payment completion level represents one of the lowest-risk off-plan investment profiles that Dubai’s secondary market produces, and in Greenside Residence, Dubai Hills Estate, with Emaar as developer, the certainty of delivery is the highest available in the market.

About Greenside Residence — Dubai Hills Estate, Emaar

Greenside Residence is an Emaar residential apartment development within Dubai Hills Estate — positioned within the community’s apartment cluster to provide residents with direct connectivity to Dubai Hills Mall, the Dubai Hills Golf Club and park network, the Dubai Hills Boulevard retail and dining corridor, and the Dubai Hills Metro Station on the Blue Line. The Greenside naming references the development’s adjacency to the golf course green landscape that defines the visual character of this specific location within the Dubai Hills masterplan — an address whose primary visual environment is the green, open parkscape of the golf course rather than the urban density of a conventional city-centre apartment development. A 748 sq ft 1-bedroom apartment in Greenside Residence with a community view represents the most accessible price point in the Greenside product range — an entry into the Dubai Hills Estate Emaar apartment ownership structure with full access to the community’s comprehensive amenity infrastructure and the near-handover certainty of a Q2 2027 delivery at 90% completion. At AED 1,628,540 — the seller’s exact documented cost basis, with zero profit transferred to the buyer — this distress resale provides the most competitively priced entry into Greenside Residence’s near-handover secondary market currently available from a motivated seller.

Investment Case — Zero-Profit Seller Exit, 90% Paid, Near-Handover, Dubai Hills Estate

The investment case for this Greenside Residence 1-bedroom at AED 1,628,540 is built around three compounding propositions that together make this one of the most capital-efficient near-handover distress configurations in the Dubai Hills Estate apartment secondary market. First, the zero-profit seller entry advantage: the seller is exiting at cost recovery only — the buyer acquires at the seller’s exact OP plus DLD, not above it. If comparable Greenside Residence 1-bedrooms are trading at or above this level in the secondary market, the buyer enters at or below market with full DLD-registry validation available to confirm. Second, the near-handover capital efficiency: with 90% paid and only AED 156,589 remaining to Emaar at Q2 2027, the buyer’s forward capital commitment from today is limited to a single, clearly defined, 12-month-away milestone — the lowest-risk remaining payment schedule of any active Greenside Residence resale. The construction risk profile that accompanies conventional off-plan investment simply does not apply at 10% remaining. Third, the Dubai Hills Estate rental premium: the community’s combination of Dubai Hills Mall, the Golf Club and Park, the Blue Line Metro station, and the school catchment consistently drives one of the strongest and most professionally diverse rental demand profiles in the Dubai apartment market, supporting rents materially above comparable square footage in communities without this amenity combination — and entering at a 1BR 748 sqft Emaar apartment at AED 1,628,540 on the basis of a zero-profit seller exit creates the most favourable yield-on-cost foundation possible for this product type at this address.
