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.
Every off-plan project in Dubai must have an escrow account at a bank, watched by RERA. Pay into that account, never to a person. Ask for the account number.
Budget for the service charge.
Once the building is finished you pay a yearly service charge per sq ft, set from the building's budget and approved by RERA. Ask Emaar Properties for the estimate.
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 96,000 ÷ AED 1,760,000 = 5.5%. 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.

Emaar Properties' Palace Residences in Dubai Hills Estate has one- to three-bedroom apartments and townhouses from AED 1,760,000, with a listed handover of April 2028. Its from price is about 4.9% below 641 similar one-bedroom sales in Dubai Hills Estate (12 months to October 2026).
The from price here is about 4.9% below 641 similar one-bedroom sales in Dubai Hills Estate (12 months to October 2026), as listed by the Dubai Land Department. Those sales cover the whole area, not only this project, so ask which unit the from price buys.
You pay 10% on booking, 70% during construction and 20% at handover. At the from price that is AED 176,000, AED 1,232,000 and AED 352,000. The listed handover is April 2028, about 17 months away, so 80% of the price is due before handover. Separately, the 4% DLD fee comes to AED 70,400; ask when it is due.
The listing gives sizes from 754 to 1,550 sq ft. The developer lists about 754 sq ft for one bedroom, 1,181 sq ft for two and 1,540 sq ft for three, all as apartments. Townhouses are also listed with no size, so ask for those floor plans. Residents share a gym and a pool, plus a children's pool and play area, and the developer mentions park views.
Dubai Hills Golf Club is about 1.3 km away and Kings Hospital about 1.4 km. GEMS New Millenium School and GEMS International School, Al Khail are each about 1.5 km away, and GEMS Wellington Academy about 1.6 km. Garmin Metro Station (formerly Onpassive, Noor Bank, Al Safa) is about 6.0 km away, around 11 minutes by car.
