Silva at Dubai Creek Harbour by Emaar Properties

Silva at Dubai Creek Harbour is a residential tower by Emaar Properties in the Green Gate district of Dubai Creek Harbour. The single building comprises ground, two podium levels and 47 floors, with 434 units in total: one, two and three bedroom apartments, plus three bedroom townhouses set within the ground and podium levels of the tower.

Silva is in Green Gate, the park-focused district of Dubai Creek Harbour beside Green Gate Park. By car it is about 5 minutes from the Ras Al Khor Wildlife Sanctuary, 10 minutes from Downtown Dubai, 15 minutes from Dubai International Airport, and 40 minutes from Al Maktoum International Airport.

1 bedroom apartments start from AED 1.79M ≈ USD 487K (740 - 972 sq ft), 2 bedroom apartments from AED 2.65M ≈ USD 721K (1,154 - 1,650 sq ft), 3 bedroom apartments from AED 3.87M ≈ USD 1.05M (1,834 sq ft), and 3 bedroom townhouses from AED 6.31M ≈ USD 1.72M (3,253 - 3,265 sq ft). Final pricing depends on the specific unit, floor, and view.

Silva follows an 80/20 payment plan: a 10% down payment on booking plus the 4% DLD registration fee, seven instalments of 10% scheduled between August 2025 and August 2028, and a final 20% on completion, scheduled for September 2029. The instalment dates are the developer's estimates linked to construction milestones.

Handover is expected in Q3 2029. Main construction is under way: the July 2026 RERA inspection reported enabling works complete, foundations at an advanced stage, and substructure work progressing. Progress against RERA inspection data is tracked in the Silva construction updates guide.

It depends on the unit. The 10 year UAE Golden Visa requires a property investment of at least AED 2M ≈ USD 545K. Silva's 2 bedroom apartments (from AED 2.65M), 3 bedroom apartments (from AED 3.87M), and 3 bedroom townhouses (from AED 6.31M) are priced above that threshold, while the 1 bedroom apartments, from AED 1.79M, sit below it. The dedicated Silva Golden Visa guide covers the eligibility steps in detail.

Yes, Silva at Dubai Creek Harbour is a freehold property, open to all nationalities.

Yes. The full process, from reservation to 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 for Silva are made into the project's DLD-registered escrow account with Emirates Islamic Bank P.J.S.C. and released to the developer only against verified construction progress, a framework regulated by the Dubai Land Department. The Silva escrow account guide explains how the account works.

Most buyers use the developer's payment plan, as off plan mortgage options for non-residents are limited. Financing becomes more accessible at handover, when completed units qualify for standard UAE mortgage products available to non-residents, which is also when the final 20% of the Silva plan falls due.

It depends on the tier and the plan behind it. The 1 bedroom from AED 1.79M is the lowest entry and keeps capital outlay contained, the 2 bedroom from AED 2.65M adds Golden Visa eligibility, and the townhouses from AED 6.31M serve a smaller pool of buyers who want townhouse space within a tower address. The deciding factors are entry price, holding horizon to the Q3 2029 handover, and exit strategy: resale, rental, or moving in.
