Below OP Analysis
The seller purchased at AED 1,460,000 and paid a 4% DLD fee of AED 58,400, bringing total investment to AED 1,518,400. At AED 1,350,000, the seller is absorbing:
- Price discount: AED 110,000 (7.5% below OP)
- DLD fee loss: AED 58,400
- Total seller loss: AED 168,400 (11.1% of total investment)
This is a genuine distress signal. The building is near handover (92% complete), and the seller is choosing to exit at a loss rather than wait for completion.
DLD Transactions (1BR, Creek Vista Heights, October 2026)
- AED 1,254,166 for 611 sqft, Tower A (12 Oct 2026, AED 2,051 per sqft, off-plan)
- AED 1,267,232 for 610 sqft, Tower A (9 Oct 2026, AED 2,076 per sqft, off-plan)
These transactions are for the smaller 611 sqft 1BR layout. At AED 2,039 per sqft, the 662 sqft unit is priced slightly below the DLD rate for smaller units, which supports the value proposition. The larger layout provides 51 sqft more space at a comparable per-sqft rate.
Competing 1BR Listings (662 sqft Layout)
- AED 1,300,000, Tower A, Burj Khalifa view, low floor (FAM Properties)
- AED 1,400,000, Tower A, MBR City view (DrivenProperties)
At AED 1,350,000, this listing sits between the cheapest (AED 1,300,000, low floor) and the next option (AED 1,400,000). The view premium (Burj and Downtown) may justify the AED 50,000 difference over the AED 1,300,000 low-floor listing, depending on floor level.
Layout Note
Creek Vista Heights has multiple 1BR layouts: 611 sqft (most common), 662 sqft (this unit, likely the 02 series or corner layout), 719 sqft and 761 sqft. The 662 sqft layout includes a laundry room and is larger than the standard 611 sqft without reaching the premium sizes. It is a valid confirmed layout per Property Finder and FAM Properties listings.
