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.
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 Al Yakka Developers 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 48,000 ÷ AED 650,000 = 7.4%. 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.

Ryah Living is an Al Yakka Developers apartment building in Dubai Studio City, with studios to two-bedroom homes from AED 650,000 and a listed handover of December 2026. That date is next month, so ask the developer for the latest status before you pay.
The listed handover for Ryah Living is December 2026, which is due soon. A listed date is the developer's target, not a promise. Ask how far construction has got before you pay, and if the date has moved, get the new one in writing.
The plan is 20% on booking, 20% during construction and 60% at handover: AED 130,000, AED 130,000 and AED 390,000 at the from price. Separately, the 4% DLD fee comes to AED 26,000; ask when it is due.
The building is listed as B + G + 8 + R, with 122 apartments and 7 retail units. The homes are 18 two-bedroom, 48 one-bedroom and 56 studio apartments, from 351 to 1,736 sq ft across the range. Residents get a gym, a swimming pool and a children's pool, a play area, covered parking, a lobby and 24/7 security. The listing has no floor plans, so ask for the layout of your unit.
GEMS Metropole School Motor City is about 580 m away, and Arabian Ranches Golf Club about 1.4 km, a 4-minute drive. Safa Community School and Dwight School Dubai are about 2.1 and 2.3 km away, 8 minutes by car each. Jumeirah Golf Estates Metro Station is about 9.1 km away, around 19 minutes by car.
