Payment plan

Payment plan

35% across booking and construction, 65% on handover. No post-handover plan, so the completion tranche falls due in full at keys. The 65% aligns with typical non-resident mortgage LTV, meaning the booking and construction payments approximate the equity portion for mortgage-intending buyers.

The investment case

Who it suits, and why

Type of investment

Capital appreciation

  • For investors who prioritise long-term value growth and accept a more modest rental yield.
  • Suits buyers with a longer horizon who don't rely on rental income.

Best positioned for

InvestorEnd user

Investors seeking coastal exposure in Dubai below Palm Jumeirah pricing, with a fully furnished product that is immediately deployable for short-term rental at handover. The beachfront position 200 metres from Baby Beach and the private pool terraces are the primary short-let pricing drivers.

Investment analysis

Villa Del Gavi is a boutique, fully furnished residential development on Dubai Islands, a master-planned waterfront district north of Deira. The project sits at the upper end of the mid-to-premium segment.

It is positioned as a branded, high-specification asset in a district still in active infrastructure build-out. The target investor is one seeking coastal exposure in Dubai at a price point below Palm Jumeirah, with upside tied to district maturation and a fully furnished product that is immediately deployable for short-term rental at handover.

The 65% payment at handover limits pre-handover capital exposure to 35% of purchase price, functioning closer to a deferred purchase model than a standard construction-phase plan.

Why this works

  • Approximately 29 units, limiting secondary market oversupply at project level
  • 200 metres from Baby Beach with direct beachfront access
  • Pre-handover capital exposure capped at 35% of purchase price
  • The 65% handover tranche aligns with typical non-resident mortgage LTV of 60%, approximating the equity portion for mortgage-intending buyers
  • Fully furnished with SMEG kitchens, Fabel Casa wardrobes and Italian stone flooring, so no fit-out cost and immediate rental deployability
  • Private pools on select terraces and balconies across all floors
  • Dubai International Airport under 20 minutes, supporting both short-stay and relocation demand

Exit options

  • Pre-handover resale once the 35% paid threshold is reached
  • Post-handover open market sale
  • Short-term rental via holiday home licence
  • Long-term tenancy
