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 Prescott 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.

Verano at Dubai Studio City is a Prescott Developers project with studio to three-bedroom apartments from AED 650,000 and a listed handover of September 2027. You pay 60% before handover, and the from price is about 4.1% below 84 similar studio sales in Dubai Studio City (12 months to October 2026).
The from price is about 4.1% below 84 similar studio sales in Dubai Studio City (12 months to October 2026). Ask which unit and floor the from price applies to. The listed handover is September 2027, about ten months away, so ask the developer how far construction has got.
You pay 20% on booking, 40% during construction and 40% at handover. At the from price that is AED 130,000 on booking, AED 260,000 during construction and AED 260,000 at handover. That makes AED 390,000 before handover. Ask when the 40% construction payment falls due. Separately, the 4% DLD fee comes to AED 26,000 at the from price; ask when it is due.
The listing shows studios to three-bedroom apartments from 417 to 1,871 sq ft, so ask for the floor plan of the layout you want. The developer mentions glass facades, stepped terraces and floor-to-ceiling windows. Shared facilities include a gym, a shared pool, a children's pool and play area and covered parking.
GEMS Metropole School Motor City is about 390 m away. Trump International Golf Club in DAMAC Hills is about 1.4 km away. Dwight School Dubai is about 2.0 km away and Safa Community School about 2.4 km. Jumeirah Golf Estates Metro Station is about 8.8 km away, around 18 minutes by car by our estimate, and Dubai Internet City is about the same drive.
