Why the Price Qualifies as Below DLD Transacted

The agent cites a last transaction of AED 14,200,000. The asking price of AED 13,000,000 is AED 1,200,000 lower, a 8.5% discount, which matches the AED 1.2 million gap the agent quotes. The brief does not give the date of that transaction, the villa type, or its size, so DPF cannot confirm it is a like-for-like comparison. Buyers should ask for the DLD transaction record and check that it relates to a six-bedroom villa of similar size and plot.

About Sobha Reserve

Layout and Features

The agent supplied the six-bedroom layout, the 7,025 sq ft built-up area, the 6,200 sq ft plot, the private lift and the private pool. The built-up area is larger than the plot, which is normal for a villa built over several floors. Bathrooms, parking, orientation and the villa number were not supplied.

Payment Plan and Handover

The agent expects handover in about three months. The amount paid and the balance due at handover were not supplied. Because handover is close, a buyer may need to fund the final payment soon after transfer. Request the Sobha statement of account, confirm the handover date with Sobha, and check its resale NOC conditions.

Acquisition Costs

Dubai Land Department fees are typically 4% of the price, about AED 520,000 at this asking price, plus registration, trustee and brokerage costs.
