  • 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 Meraas 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.

Rent and yield

Gross yield is a year's rent before costs, as a share of the price. At the from price: AED 130,000 ÷ AED 2,350,000 = 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.

About Riwa at MJL

Riwa at MJL is a Meraas project in Umm Suqeim with apartments of one to three bedrooms plus four-bedroom penthouses from AED 2,350,000, and handover listed for August 2027. The beach by the Burj Al Arab is about 280 m away on the map, and the from price per square foot is about 13% above 95 similar one-bedroom off-plan sales in Um Suqaim Third.

Riwa belongs to Madinat Jumeirah Living and lies between Jumeirah Beach Road and Al Wasl. Umm Suqeim beach, by the Burj Al Arab, is about 280 m away and a clinic about 390 m. Kings' Dubai is about 740 m away and Raffles World Academy about 890 m. Mall of the Emirates Metro Station is about 2.1 km away, around 4 minutes by car by our estimate, and Dubai Internet City about 11 minutes.

The price check uses sales across Um Suqaim Third, not in this project. It puts the from price per square foot about 13% above the median of 95 similar one-bedroom off-plan sales registered with the Dubai Land Department there in the 12 months to October 2026. Ask for the price per square foot of the exact unit you are offered.

The plan is 20% on booking, 55% during construction and 25% at handover, listed for August 2027, about nine months away. At the from price that is AED 470,000 on booking, AED 1,292,500 during construction and AED 587,500 at handover. Ask when the 55% construction payment falls due. Separately, the 4% DLD fee comes to AED 94,000; ask when it is due.

The listing gives one-bedroom apartments of 877 sq ft, two-bedroom of 1,447 sq ft, three-bedroom of 2,402 sq ft and four-bedroom penthouses of 4,390 sq ft. The overall range starts at 724 sq ft, so check the floor plans. It mentions a pool and landscaped gardens but gives no full list of facilities, so ask for one. The listing doesn't give the ownership type, so confirm the ownership terms with the developer.
