About Binghatti Starlight

Binghatti Starlight is a 25-storey residential tower in Al Jaddaf, Dubai — specifically within Healthcare City Phase 2 on the western banks of Dubai Creek. Developed by Binghatti Developers, one of the UAE's most prolific and recognisable developers with an investment portfolio exceeding AED 40 billion, the project takes its design inspiration from celestial light: the distinctive hexagonal façade creates a mesmerising interplay of light and shadow that shifts throughout the day. The building comprises studios, 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom apartments totalling approximately 510 units, with three basement levels for parking. Each unit delivers floor-to-ceiling windows, large balconies, and contemporary interiors in light tones and eco-friendly materials. The project is delivered semi-furnished, with fully fitted kitchens including integrated appliances as standard — a meaningful cost saving for buyers who intend to let immediately after handover.

Payment and Handover

This is an off-plan SPA assignment. Binghatti Starlight's original payment plan is 70/30: 20% down payment on booking, 50% during construction in staged installments, and 30% on handover in Q2 2026. As a near-handover unit, the majority of construction-stage payments are expected to be largely settled by the seller. The buyer assumes the remaining SPA obligations per the original payment schedule. A 4% DLD Oqood transfer fee applies at assignment — approximately AED 28,400 on the distress price of AED 710,000. A trustee office fee of approximately AED 4,200 also applies. Annual post-handover service charge: approximately AED 15.36 per sq ft (based on comparable Al Jaddaf Binghatti buildings) — approximately AED 6,881 per year on this 448 sq ft unit. Full cost breakdown and paid-versus-outstanding installment schedule available on request. Note on UAE residency visa: The distress price of AED 710,000 is below the AED 750,000 threshold for a 2-year UAE residence visa linked to property. Buyers seeking visa eligibility should confirm the applicable rules with the Dubai Land Department or their legal advisor at the time of purchase.
