Location and surroundings of Dubai Islands

Dubai Islands is an emerging waterfront destination in Dubai, consisting of several islands with beaches, marinas and residential areas. The area has been developed to offer a mix of living, tourism and recreation. Located on the waterfront, Marea Residences offers direct access to the beach. The area is quiet and green, with walking trails along the water. The location combines a holiday feeling with the proximity to the city centre. The island is easily accessible via bridges and roads, making you quickly in other parts of Dubai. New facilities such as a shopping center and entertainment venues will come close by.

From Marea Residences you can reach Dubai Island Beach and the future Dubai Islands Mall in about 5 minutes. The beach is ideal for swimming and sunbathing, and the mall will soon offer shops, restaurants and entertainment. Dubaiโ€™s main sights, such as Burj Khalifa and Downtown Dubai, can be reached in about 20 minutes by car. Dubai International Airport is also approximately 20 minutes away, which is convenient for frequent travelers. The central location on the island ensures a good balance between peace and accessibility.

The 70/30 payment plan at Marea Residences

The payment plan for Marea Residences is divided into 70% during construction and 30% at handover. When booking you pay a deposit of 5% of the purchase price. The remaining 65% will be paid in instalments during the construction period. The last 30% will be paid on the transfer of the property in the second quarter of 2027. This plan gives you the opportunity to spread the payment over the construction time. The exact deadlines and conditions are set by the developer and may vary per home. It is customary that the payments are linked to building mileage.

When purchasing a property in Marea Residences, you will be guided by a registered real estate agent. This real estate agent has a RERA licence and is registered with the Dubai Land Department. He or she will help you book the property, review the contract and payments. You do not have to contact the developer; the real estate agent acts as an intermediary. This ensures a smooth running of the purchase process and gives you certainty. The real estate agent can also advise on financing and legal aspects. This way you can buy a property in Dubai with confidence.

How does a mortgage work for off-plan property in Dubai?

You use your own funds during construction. You pay the payment plan instalments from your own funds. A mortgage is usually arranged only at handover, for the amount still outstanding at that point. Some banks provide finance earlier, but the UAE Central Bank sets a 50% maximum for off-plan property.

Situation (UAE resident)Maximum mortgage
First home up to AED 5m80%
First home above AED 5m70%
Second home or investment60%
Off-plan, before handover50%

Non-resident? These maximums do not automatically apply. Banks use their own, usually stricter, rules for foreign buyers. If you live abroad, expect to contribute more of your own funds.

Income matters. In principle, your total monthly debt repayments may not exceed 50% of your gross monthly income, and the mortgage may not exceed 7 times your annual income. The maximum term is 25 years.

Borrow more after handover? If the property is worth more than your purchase price at handover, a bank may sometimes provide additional finance based on the valuation through equity release. This requires a separate discussion with an adviser.

An estimate, not advice or an offer. Statutory maximums are no guarantee. Income, debts, age, employer and credit profile determine what a bank will actually lend.
