Layouts and the handover date come from the developer's brochure in our archive.
Prices and payment plans from the same source are deliberately not published:
they are dated to when the brochure was issued and do not match today's prices.
I will send the current ones over WhatsApp.
Developer prices
These are the starting prices as of the date shown, not today's list: off-plan
they are revised several times a year, and more often upwards than down.

About the building
18-storey residential building in DubaiLand Residence Complex, currently under construction. Developer — Imtiaz Developments.
Specifications for The Archive by Imtiaz per Propsearch and the Dubai Land Department.
They describe the whole building, not the individual unit.
About the project
The Archive by Imtiaz is an 18-storey residential building in DubaiLand Residence Complex, handover is due Q3 2028.
The developer is Imtiaz Developments.
Layouts, according to the developer's brochure — studios, 1, 2 and 3 bedrooms.
No lots from this project are in our database today. It is topped up every night, so listings for the building can turn up on any day.
An 18-storey building in Dubailand Residence Complex built around a book concept: libraries, reading rooms, and work studies. Entry from $181,000, keys stated for Q3 2028.
Layouts and prices
Four unit types: studios from 37 m², one-bedrooms from 51 m², two-bedrooms from 95 m², and three-bedrooms from 121 m². Prices are stated from $181,000, which works out to around $4,900/m² for a studio — one of the lowest entry prices in the district.
A one-bedroom from 51 m² is a noticeably more compact format than the neighbouring projects, where one-bedrooms typically start above 70 m². For a rental scenario that's an advantage: a lower ticket price, and demand for one-bedrooms is steady in a district with universities and a tech hub nearby.
Two payment plans, and they mean different things
The down payment is 20% either way. From there it forks: either 30% during construction and 50% on handover, or 40% during construction and 40% after handover, in equal instalments of 3.3% per quarter over three years.
The first option costs less overall but requires a large sum ready at handover. The second spreads the load, but almost half the price still hangs over you after you've moved in. The choice between them comes down to "have the money ready by 2028" versus "pay in small amounts until 2031."
Location and amenities
The universities and tech hub are stated at three minutes away, GEMS school at ten. The materials mention that the tech hub is planned to create more than 70,000 jobs — that's the main argument for rental demand here, but the figure refers to plans, not to today.
Inside: libraries, writing studies, and reading rooms; on the roof, pools, an open-air cinema, and a barbecue area. Plus fireside lounges, a gym, a children's play area, gardens, fountains, mini golf, and pet-walking areas.
Sales-launch materials from the selling side: floor areas, prices, two payment plans, and handover date. Price per square metre is our own calculation.
How many deals this location is doing
4.7%of the month's registrations in Dubai
That is the share of every off-plan deal in the emirate for the month that went
to Dubailand Residence Complex — out of 9 475 registrations. For
scale: off-plan accounts for 72.8% of the market
as a whole, so the bulk of the city's turnover runs through construction rather
than through finished homes.
🔴 This is a figure for the location, not for this building.
A cluster holds dozens of towers with different handover dates and prices, and
a high share means there is a lot of supply here and a lot of deals — not that
this particular tower sells better than its neighbour. On a resale that cuts
both ways: liquidity is higher, but so is the number of flats competing with
yours.

Where it is
The pin is placed by district — I send the exact address on request.
Nothing in the stock for this project right now
The stock refreshes every night, and lots here appear and go. Message me — I will check the closed bases and suggest the nearest alternatives in DubaiLand Residence Complex.
The final payment on this building falls in 2028 — under off-plan plans that is
40–60% of the price in one go. A UAE bank closes it: the flat becomes the security,
and nothing is added on top of what the developer has already been paid.
Up to 80% of the appraised value, no extra down payment
3.99% fixed for three years, up to 25 years in term
6–12 months before the keys — the bank wants six months of income history
Already been invoiced, or missed the date? That is not a dead end either — write and
we will look at what the developer will accept.
The developer's brochure says Q3 2028. The date in the contract for a particular unit can differ — I check it before the deal.
What layouts are there in The Archive by Imtiaz?
Studios, 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom and 3-bedroom, according to the developer's brochure. Which sizes are actually free right now depends on what is on the market; I will send the current list.
Where is The Archive by Imtiaz?
Dubailand. Not one district but a vast planned region covering much of inland Dubai — a name that means very little without a sub-community attached.
How much does an apartment in The Archive by Imtiaz cost?
No open lots for the building today. I will check the price of the layout you are after in the closed databases and send it with every cost of the deal worked out.
