Welcome to Dubai Daily, your essential morning briefing on Dubai's real estate market.
šļø EPISODE OVERVIEW
Comprehensive analysis of developer payment plan structures including 80/20, 60/40, 10/70/20, post-handover, and 1% monthly plans. Learn leverage optimization, cash flow impact, developer-specific strategies, and how to match payment structures to your investor profile.
š KEY TOPICS COVERED
⢠80/20 payment structure: 80% construction, 20% handover (Nakheel Bay Villas, Emaar premium)
⢠60/40 payment structure: 60% construction, 40% handover (Damac, Sobha SeaHaven)
⢠10/70/20 payment structure: 10% down, 70% construction, 20% handover (Emaar Oasis, Sobha One)
⢠Post-handover plans: Payments continue 2-3 years after completion (rental income offset)
⢠1% monthly plans: Predictable payments for salaried professionals (Danube Properties)
š” KEY TAKEAWAYS
⢠10/70/20 plans offer 2x leverage: Control 5M dirhams with 500K down vs 2.5M with 80/20, but require strongest construction-phase cash flow (39-58K monthly)
⢠80/20 plans minimize handover debt: 80% paid during construction, 20% at completion, ideal for cash-rich investors (33-58K monthly)
⢠60/40 plans balance payments: Moderate construction payments (22-42K monthly), larger handover typically mortgage-financed, suits balanced investors
⢠Post-handover plans allow rental income offset: 6% yield (120K annually) partially offsets 200-300K annual post-handover payments
⢠Additional costs add 5-7%: DLD (4%), Oqood (1-5K), service charges (15-30/sq ft), agency (2% + VAT)
