01 / THE REASON TO LOOK CLOSER

40% before handover. A greener waterfront life in Abu Dhabi.

The payment timing and the planned landscape make a clear combination. Paying 40% before handover leaves a smaller portion of the price due during construction, while Sobha City brings waterfront, forest-led neighbourhoods and an executive par-3 golf course into one planned community. The remaining 60% is a substantial completion payment to plan for from day one.

01

40% before handover

On the approved eligible-unit offer, 40% of the purchase price falls before handover and 60% at completion. For an illustrative AED 1 million purchase, that is AED 400,000 before handover and AED 600,000 at handover, excluding fees.

02

Landscape with specific ambitions

The masterplan describes approximately 60% open and green space, more than 50,000 trees and an approximately 20 km wellness loop. These are planned features, subject to delivery.

03

Waterfront life, connected to Abu Dhabi

A 2 km promenade and an executive par-3 golf course complement the setting. Sobha quotes approximately 13 minutes to Yas Mall and 14 minutes to the airport; journey times vary.
