DAMAC District by DAMAC

DAMAC District is a mixed-use development by DAMAC Properties inside the DAMAC Hills master community in Dubailand. It combines two residential towers, Tower A at G+2P+29 and Tower B at G+2P+26, holding 1,090 residential units, with a separate G+2P+10 office building that connects directly into DAMAC Mall. It is the first project to bring graded workspace into DAMAC Hills. Handover is scheduled for Q3 2029.

DAMAC District stands on the western edge of DAMAC Hills in Dubailand, where the masterplan meets the approach toward DAMAC Lagoons. The community is reached via Hessa Street, Al Qudra Road, and Emirates Road (E611). No metro line serves DAMAC Hills, so the address is car-led, with Jebel Ali School about five minutes away and Al Maktoum International Airport about 28 minutes away.

The project offers one and two bedroom apartments across the two residential towers, plus office floor plates in the separate office building. One bedroom layouts measure approximately 627 to 1,035 sq ft (58 to 96 sq m) and two bedroom layouts approximately 959 to 1,626 sq ft (89 to 151 sq m), both including a separate study. Office units measure approximately 3,164 to 6,588 sq ft (294 to 612 sq m), with full leasable floor areas ranging from 22,459 to 22,882 sq ft.

One bedroom apartments start from AED 1.142M ≈ USD 311K and two bedroom apartments from AED 1.706M ≈ USD 465K. Office spaces start from AED 6.095M ≈ USD 1.66M. The final price of any given unit depends on floor level, orientation, and which frontage it faces, since both residential towers are dual-aspect.

Handover is scheduled for Q3 2029. The project is at the earliest stage of its construction cycle, so the full construction-linked portion of the payment plan still sits ahead of it rather than behind it. Progress against each RERA inspection is tracked in the DAMAC District construction updates guide.

The launch plan is structured 20/40/40: a 20 per cent deposit on booking, 40 per cent during construction, and 40 per cent on completion. The construction tranche is paid as monthly instalments of roughly 1 per cent across 40 months from booking, with a quarterly variant of 15 larger instalments available instead. The 4 per cent Dubai Land Department registration fee is payable in addition to the initial deposit, not inside it.

The property investment threshold for the 10 year UAE Golden Visa is AED 2M ≈ USD 545K. Apartment starting prices at DAMAC District sit below that line, at AED 1.142M for a one bedroom and AED 1.706M for a two bedroom, so a single apartment bought at entry pricing does not on its own meet the threshold. Office units, starting from AED 6.095M, sit well above it. Buyers can also reach the threshold by holding Dubai property with a combined value of AED 2M or more. The DAMAC District Golden Visa guide sets out how the threshold is assessed.

Yes. DAMAC District is a freehold development, open to all nationalities, with full ownership rights registered at the Dubai Land Department. That applies to the office units as well as the apartments.

Yes. The full process, from reservation and booking through SPA signing and registration, can be completed remotely, and I manage it end to end with the developer on your behalf. Each stage of the remote purchase is documented in my Dubai real estate guide library.

All off plan payments are made into the project's DLD-registered escrow account and are released to the developer only against construction progress verified by independent inspection, rather than on request. The framework is regulated by the Dubai Land Department. The mechanics are set out in the DAMAC District escrow account guide.

The two halves of the project answer different cases. The apartments sit inside a completed, operational community with an established rental market, so yield can be underwritten against real transaction history rather than a projection, and the one bedroom is the liquid unit at the price floor. The office floors are a scarcity case instead: Dubai's graded office supply has been absorbed faster than it has been built for several years, and Dubailand has almost none of it, so this is new commercial stock in a market with very little. Suitability in either case comes down to entry price, holding horizon, and exit strategy, and both are shaped by a Q3 2029 handover with 40 per cent of the value due at completion.
