Pounds and dollars are a guide, at mid-market rates on 3 November 2026; your bank’s rate will differ. Plans as published by the developer change between launches and unit types: we confirm the current plan in writing with the price list, and yours is the one in the sale agreement.

Before you buy

Before you buy, check

  • Handover has already moved from '2027' at launch to 'starting Q4 2027'; a major portal shows Q1 2028 for phase 1. Ask for the DLD completion date on the SPA.
  • Unit counts differ between sources (421 total per Media Office; 455 for phase 2 per a developer release). Confirm which tower and phase you are buying into.
  • Expo City has not handed over any homes yet, so there is no service-charge history. Ask for the estimated service charge in writing.
  • Construction began in earnest only after the ECC appointment in October 2025; check the current DLD progress percentage.

Check the project and its escrow account with the Dubai Land Department before you pay.
