Project factsheet

About the project

The Sanctuary is a residential community in Dubai.

The database currently holds 6 lots in this project, from 5 500 000 AED; 3 of them priced below the market, the deepest discount 25%.

An Ellington project with the most detailed payment schedule in our archive: 20% at booking, eight instalments of 5% tied to days from the booking date, and 40% on completion.

Payment schedule — by days from booking

The developer's payment sheet ties instalments not to construction milestones but to days from the booking date. 20% at booking. Then 5% each at: 60 days, 120, 240, 360, 450, 540, 720 and 900. The remaining 40% at completion.

The same document labels the instalments with calendar months, which reveal the original sales timeline: April 2023, June 2023, October 2023, February 2024, May 2024, August 2024, February 2025 and August 2025.

Tying payments to days from booking rather than to construction milestones means paying on a calendar regardless of how construction is actually progressing. That's a fundamentally different risk than a plan like "10% on completion of piling."

Payment structure and schedule — the project's developer payment sheet, with the calendar breakdown of instalments in the same document.

Handover payment

A mortgage covers the final instalment

The final payment on this building falls in 2027 — 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.
