Official Account Details
The Edit at d3 Escrow Account at a Glance
Payments toward an apartment or penthouse at The Edit at d3 go into one project escrow account at Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank, supervised by the Dubai Land Department and kept apart from the developer's own finances. The details below are the ones the DLD register shows for project 4177. My advice to first-time end users and seasoned investors alike is identical: save this number now, before any payment request arrives, so that every future instruction is compared against your own record rather than against whatever an email claims.

Where the Project Stands
Registration and Escrow Status
The Edit at d3 entered the Dubai Land Department register on 6 November 2025 as project 4177, with DHRE 2 BTS L.L.C recorded as the registered developer entity and Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank as the escrow bank. For a family putting down a deposit and for an investor sizing up cash exposure, the practical meaning is the same: the account receiving your money is named in a register you can open on your own phone, not in a sales presentation.

Before You Transfer
Compare the account number on the payment request with the Escrow Account panel in Dubai REST. Compare it again with the escrow details written into your Sales and Purchase Agreement. Check that the amount matches the instalment due under your payment schedule. If a single digit differs, hold the transfer and message me first.
I verify these details against Dubai REST before publishing and after each new inspection. If anything on this page ever differs from what you see in the app, trust the app and tell me.
Before You Transfer
- Match the account number on your payment instruction to the Escrow Account panel in Dubai REST.
- Match the same number to the escrow details in your Sales and Purchase Agreement.
- Confirm the amount and the construction milestone it corresponds to.
- If anything differs, even by one digit, stop and message me before sending.
Your Money, Step by Step
How The Edit at d3's Payment Plan Meets the Escrow Account
The developer's launch schedule for The Edit at d3 is a 75/25 plan: a 20% down payment on booking with the 4% DLD registration fee on top, six instalments totalling 55% between June 2026 and May 2028 (10%, 5%, 10%, 10%, 10% and 10%), and 25% on handover. The schedule runs on calendar dates, while escrow releases run on inspected progress, and the protection lives in the gap between the two. At the 0.24% reading of 19 August 2026, buyers who have kept to the schedule have paid far more than the works on site represent, and the escrow rules exist to keep that difference in the supervised account until inspections record the construction behind it.
Booking: 20%
The 20% down payment is paid into account 2942*****, and the 4% DLD registration fee is charged on top of the price when the purchase is registered under Oqood.
Construction Instalments: 55%
Six dated instalments from June 2026 to May 2028 build up in escrow. Releases to the developer follow RERA-inspected progress, and at 0.24% on 19 August 2026 the site is still at enabling works.
Handover: 25%
The largest single payment waits until handover, anticipated in June 2030, and a retention portion of the escrow funds is held after completion against defect repairs.

The Edit at d3 Escrow Account Frequently Asked Questions
Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank holds the escrow account for The Edit at d3, account number 2942***** (shown in full in the Escrow Details section above), linked in the DLD register to project number 4177, which was registered on 6 November 2025.
The Edit at d3 was sold at launch on a schedule of a 20% down payment with the 4% DLD registration fee on top, then 10%, 5%, 10%, 10%, 10% and 10% falling due between June 2026 and May 2028, and 25% on handover, anticipated in June 2030. Purchase-price payments go into the project escrow account, and releases to the developer follow construction progress recorded through RERA inspections rather than the instalment calendar.
The DLD register shows 0.24% for The Edit at d3 at the inspection dated 19 August 2026, up from 0% at the previous inspection, and the RERA inspection report for that date records enabling works as progressing. At this stage almost the entire build, and with it almost all of the construction-linked escrow releases, still lies ahead. The inspection history is tracked on The Edit at d3 construction updates page.
Yes. Funds paid for The Edit at d3 remain in the escrow account and continue to be released only against inspected construction progress, whatever the calendar says. Escrow protects capital while the project is completed; it does not compensate buyers for delay, and delay terms sit in the Sales and Purchase Agreement.
No. Every off-plan payment for The Edit at d3 belongs in the DLD-registered escrow account 2942***** at Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank (the full number sits in the Escrow Details section above), as recorded in the Sales and Purchase Agreement. A request to pay into a personal account, an agent's account, or a different company account, particularly one offered with a discount for paying directly, matches the standard pattern of payment fraud, however official the paperwork appears. Such a request can be checked against the escrow account registered in Dubai REST and the Sales and Purchase Agreement before any money moves.
If the Dubai Land Department cancels a registered project, RERA takes control of the escrow account and buyer refunds are handled from the protected funds under DLD supervision. That protection covers money paid into the registered account for project 4177; money sent anywhere else sits outside it. How the framework operates across Dubai is explained in the Dubai Land Department guide.
The Edit at d3 is marketed under the Meraas brand, while the DLD register records DHRE 2 BTS L.L.C, developer number 1510, as the registered developer entity for project 4177, and the RERA inspection report carries the same name. The escrow account linked to that register record is the Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank account shown in the Escrow Details section above.
The Edit at d3 appears in the Dubai REST app under Services, Project Status, as project number 4177 with the register name The Edit At D3. Its Escrow Account panel shows the bank, Abu Dhabi Islamic Bank, and the account number, and the same details appear in each buyer's Sales and Purchase Agreement.
