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 13 finished projects by this developer since 2019. 13 of the 13 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 14 per sq ft a year in 2023, from 9 buildings on the Dubai Land Department register. For the smallest home (2,915 sq ft) that is about AED 41,000 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 115,000 ÷ AED 3,200,000 = 3.6%. 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.

South Bay 6 is a Dubai South Properties community of three- to seven-bedroom villas and townhouses in Dubai South, from AED 3,200,000. Its listed handover of September 2026 has passed and may be out of date, and the price check puts its from price per square foot about 33% below 68 similar sales across the area.
The listed handover date, September 2026, has passed, so it may be out of date; ask the developer for the current position. Ask Dubai South Properties for the completion certificate before you pay. The price check puts the from price per square foot about 33% below 68 similar sales across Madinat Al Mataar (12 months to October 2026). Those are three-bedroom off-plan sales across the area, not in this project.
The listing shows both a 60 / 40 and a 60 / 20 / 20 plan, so ask for the current one in writing. On the 60 / 40 split, the from price means AED 1,920,000 during construction and AED 1,280,000 at handover. With the handover date passed, ask how much is due when you sign. Separately, the 4% DLD fee comes to AED 128,000; ask when it is due.
Homes are listed at 2,915 to 13,682 sq ft overall, and the listing sizes a three-bedroom home at 6,374 sq ft and a seven-bedroom at 13,682 sq ft. The listing also mentions semi-detached homes and mansions; ask which types are on sale. The community is set around a crystal lagoon the listing puts at 3 km, with a pool, a children's pool, a gym, a spa and a barbecue area.
Al Maktoum Airport clinic is about 1.2 km away. Expo 2020 Metro Station is about 8.4 km off, a 21-minute drive. Greenfield International School and The Arbor School are 27 to 28 minutes by car, and Jebel Ali Open Beach about 26.
