Bottom Line

High pre-handover capital commitment: 65% due before completion

The published payment schedule requires 65% of the contract price (~AED 2,217,150) during construction, with 35% due at or after handover. (Verified Fact · Verified Launch Schedule)

Payment-Plan Exposure

65/35 Split

High pre-handover capital commitment: 65% due before completion

The published payment schedule requires 65% of the contract price (~AED 2,217,150) during construction, with 35% due at or after handover.

Why this matters: Front-loaded installment schedules increase capital tied up while the building is unfinished; confirm that milestones are linked to certified construction progress rather than calendar dates.

Developer Track Record (Incomplete Data)

History Incomplete

Incomplete historical delivery data for Expo City in catalog

Expo City is named on the launch, but SKID currently has 0 verified past-handover completion records in its catalog to evaluate historical on-time delivery performance.

Why this matters: An incomplete catalog record does not necessarily mean a developer has no prior projects elsewhere, but it introduces uncertainty—rely on verified DLD construction escrow milestones and independent due diligence.

Handover Horizon (Potential Risk)

~3.5 Yrs (2029-10)

Estimated ~3.5-year horizon until 2029-10 target handover (~42 months)

Target completion is scheduled for 2029-10. SKID does not assume or predict developer delays, but a ~3.5-year construction window carries potential schedule and market-cycle exposure.

Why this matters: Capital committed during construction earns no rental income until handover, and multi-year timelines carry potential exposure to contractor pacing, phased delivery, and market shifts.
