The dates are our estimate: we spread the construction share evenly between now and the keys. The developer's real dates follow the building work, so they can move.
Your payments go into the project's escrow account, which RERA watches, not straight to the developer.
Before you buy
Pay into the project's escrow account only.
This project's escrow account is at the bank named on the register above, watched by RERA. Pay into that account, never to a person.
Check the developer's record.
The Dubai Land Department project register lists 17 finished projects by this developer since 2016. 17 of the 17 were finished by the completion date DLD holds now. DLD replaces that date when a project is given more time and keeps no earlier dates, so this can't show which ones ran late.
Budget for the service charge.
Buildings in this area paid a median of AED 30 per sq ft a year in 2024, from 36 buildings on the Dubai Land Department register. For the smallest home (373 sq ft) that is about AED 11,000 a year.
Register the sale with Oqood.
The Land Department records off-plan sales in its Oqood register. Until your sale is on it, the home isn't in your name.

Gross yield is a year's rent before costs, as a share of the price. At the from price: AED 73,000 ÷ AED 1,175,000 = 6.2%. The home earns nothing until the keys, and new buildings often rent for more than older ones.
Rents come from Ejari, Dubai's register of rent contracts: new residential contracts in the area, all buildings. A median is the middle one: half are lower, half higher.

BAYZ 101's from price per square foot is 8.4% below 40 studio off-plan sales in the project over the 24 months to October 2026. The Danube tower in Business Bay has studios to 4-bedroom apartments from AED 1,175,000, about 300 m from Business Bay Metro Station.
The Dubai Land Department lists 40 studio off-plan sales in this project in the 24 months to October 2026. The from price per square foot is 8.4% below their median. Ask which unit and floor the from price is for, and compare its price per square foot with the one you are offered.
The plan is 10% on booking, 63% during construction and 27% at handover. At the from price that is AED 117,500 on booking, AED 740,250 during construction and AED 317,250 at handover. That puts 73% of the price before the listed handover of June 2028. Separately, the 4% DLD fee comes to AED 47,000; ask when it is due.
All homes are apartments. The listing gives about 374 sq ft for a studio, 754 sq ft for one bedroom, 1,127 sq ft for two, 1,507 sq ft for three and 1,823 sq ft for four. It gives no list of shared facilities, so ask Danube for one, along with the expected service charge.
Business Bay Metro Station is about 300 m away and a polyclinic about 210 m. JSS School is about 1.1 km away and Horizon English School about 1.3 km. The Business Bay creek front is about 1.2 km away, and Dubai Hills Golf Club about 15 minutes by car by our estimate.
