Evergreens at DAMAC Hills 2 Golden Visa
A Clear Threshold Check for Two Apartment Types

Eligibility Snapshot
Evergreens at DAMAC Hills 2 Golden Visa Facts
Evergreens is a 131-residence freehold apartment project by DAMAC in DAMAC Hills 2, entered on the Dubai Land Department register as DAMAC Hills (2) - Evergreens, project number 3092, on 23 May 2024. Construction started on 3 July 2024, and the Dubai Land Department project register showed a reading of 26.43% at the inspection of 5 May 2026. For residency planning, one figure decides the question: the purchase value. 1 bedroom apartments start at AED 650K ≈ USD 177K and 2 bedroom apartments at AED 1.13M ≈ USD 308K, so no single unit here reaches the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K property value the Golden Visa property route currently asks for, under the rules in force at the time of application. That makes Evergreens a purchase to judge as a home or a holding on its own merits, not as a residency product. DAMAC's handover target is Q4 2026, the point at which the Oqood contract registration gives way to a title deed.

Unit by Unit
How Evergreens Apartments Compare With the AED 2M Threshold
A sub-threshold project deserves a straight answer rather than a soft one, and at Evergreens the gap is not marginal. The 2 bedroom apartment would need about AED 870K ≈ USD 237K more in registered value to reach the line, and the 1 bedroom about AED 1.35M ≈ USD 368K more. Paying faster, or paying in full, does not narrow either figure, because the test is the value on the contract rather than the amount paid. The honest reading: a single Evergreens apartment does not deliver Golden Visa eligibility.
| Unit Type | Unit Size | Starting Price | Qualifies Alone |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Bedroom Apartment | 541 sq ft (50 sq m) | AED 650K ≈ USD 177K | No |
| 2 Bedroom Apartment | 885 sq ft (82 sq m) | AED 1.13M ≈ USD 308K | No |
| Neither apartment type qualifies alone at current starting prices. The 2 bedroom sits AED 870K ≈ USD 237K below AED 2M ≈ USD 545K, and the 1 bedroom AED 1.35M ≈ USD 368K below it. | |||
Why this matters: the test is the value registered on the contract, so an Evergreens purchase at AED 1.13M ≈ USD 308K stays at that value whether 20% or 100% of it has been paid. The same logic holds on resale: a secondary unit priced below AED 2M ≈ USD 545K does not qualify on its own either, so check the contract value of any specific unit before building residency plans around it.
Payment Plan and Timing
What the 20/50/30 Plan Changes for Evergreens Buyers
Evergreens is sold on a 20/50/30 plan: 20% on booking (plus the 4% DLD fee), 50% during construction according to the developer's schedule, and 30% on handover, which DAMAC targets for Q4 2026. On projects that do clear the threshold, off-plan buyers usually weigh two moments: applying on the strength of the Oqood-registered contract once the paid-value conditions in force are met, or waiting for the title deed after handover.
My read on the timing: at Evergreens neither moment opens through one apartment, because both test the same registered value, and that value sits below the line from the day of booking. The plan shapes your cash flow, not your residency position. It matters only for a buyer whose Golden Visa case rests on a larger qualifying holding, and only if the rules in force at the time allow properties to be combined: the Oqood issued after booking and the title deed expected at the Q4 2026 handover are then the documents that evidence the Evergreens apartment in that file. On the build itself, the Dubai Land Department register showed 26.43% at the 5 May 2026 inspection, and the RERA report from that visit describes enabling and foundation works as substantially completed, the structure progressing at an advanced stage and MEP works at an early stage. Off-plan conditions are revised from time to time, so check the current rules before relying on any timeline.
VIP processing, no service fee: where a purchase through me forms part of a qualifying property holding, I prepare the file, submit it and track its status at no service cost. The visa itself is not free: the government fees set by the issuing authorities still apply.

The Building Behind the Numbers
A Golden Visa answer is only half of the decision. The full Evergreens guide covers what the purchase itself buys: 1 and 2 bedroom layouts with balconies, current pricing, the pool deck and outdoor cinema, and the DAMAC Hills 2 community around the building.

Evergreens at DAMAC Hills 2 Golden Visa Frequently Asked Questions
At current starting prices, the 2 bedroom apartment at AED 1.13M ≈ USD 308K sits about AED 870K ≈ USD 237K below the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K property value threshold, and the 1 bedroom apartment at AED 650K ≈ USD 177K sits about AED 1.35M ≈ USD 368K below it. Neither apartment type at Evergreens qualifies for the Golden Visa on its own. The full criteria are set out in the Golden Visa requirements guide.
Whether several properties can be combined, and on what conditions, is decided by the rules in force at the time of application, and those rules are updated from time to time. Where combining is accepted, an Evergreens apartment would typically be assessed at its registered purchase value, AED 650K ≈ USD 177K for a 1 bedroom or AED 1.13M ≈ USD 308K for a 2 bedroom, not at an estimated future value. Evergreens is a freehold project that buyers of any nationality can own, and title is registered at the Dubai Land Department.
No. Evergreens is under construction, and off-plan Golden Visa applications are typically supported by the Oqood-registered contract plus any paid-value conditions then in force, but those conditions only come into play once the registered value reaches the threshold. Neither Evergreens apartment type does so on its own, before or after the title deed is issued at the handover expected in Q4 2026. The off-plan route is explained in the off-plan property Golden Visa guide.
The plan is 20% on booking plus the 4% DLD fee, 50% during construction according to the developer's schedule, and 30% on handover in Q4 2026. Paying more of the price does not raise the registered purchase value, so the plan changes cash flow rather than eligibility. The DLD fee is paid to the Dubai Land Department on top of the price and is not part of the property value, so it does not count toward the threshold either.
No. A mortgage changes how a purchase is paid for, not the registered value of the property, so a financed 2 bedroom apartment at AED 1.13M ≈ USD 308K remains below the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K threshold. For properties that do qualify, any conditions on mortgaged property are set by the rules in force at the time of application and are explained in the Golden Visa requirements guide.
Not through a single Evergreens apartment. Under the rules commonly applied, each co-owner's share of a jointly owned property is assessed against the threshold, and the full value of the larger apartment type, AED 1.13M ≈ USD 308K for a 2 bedroom, is already below AED 2M ≈ USD 545K, so no share of it can reach the line. Joint ownership conditions are set by the regulations in force when the application is made.
Family sponsorship under the Golden Visa follows from the main investor's own visa, so it is only available once the investor qualifies. Because neither the 1 bedroom nor the 2 bedroom apartment at Evergreens reaches the threshold alone, an Evergreens purchase by itself does not open a sponsorship route for family members. Who can be sponsored, and on what terms, is explained in the Golden Visa benefits guide.
The program's current term is 10 years and renewable, and renewal is commonly tied to still holding a qualifying property value at the time of renewal, under the rules then in force. An Evergreens apartment would matter for renewal only as part of a holding that clears the threshold, since neither apartment type does so alone. The steps for a first application are covered in the Golden Visa application guide.
No service fee applies where the purchase forms part of a qualifying property holding bought through this advisory: preparing the file, submitting it and tracking its status are handled at no service cost. Government fees still apply in full, at the rates the issuing authorities publish when the application is made. The service does not change eligibility, which depends on the registered property value.
Eligibility is decided by the UAE residency authorities (ICP) and the Dubai Land Department at the time of application, against the requirements then in force, including ownership verification and standard checks. No purchase at Evergreens guarantees a Golden Visa, and at current prices neither apartment type qualifies alone. Construction status for the project can be followed on the Evergreens construction updates page.
