Historical transaction context: The asking rate is 66.8% (~AED 17,418,538 on a 6,354 sq.ft. unit) above recent nearby completed homes in La Mer. Paying above recent nearby transactions increases your upfront entry basis—local secondary prices would need to sit at least 66.8% higher—plus ~4%–6% in registration and resale costs—at handover just to match today's baseline.

Handover Horizon (Potential Risk)

~3.2 Yrs (2029-06)

Estimated ~3.2-year horizon until 2029-06 target handover (~38 months)

Target completion is scheduled for 2029-06. SKID does not assume or predict developer delays, but a ~3.2-year construction window carries potential schedule and market-cycle exposure.

Why this matters: Capital committed during construction remains illiquid until handover, and multi-year timelines carry potential exposure to contractor pacing, phased delivery, and market shifts.

Competing Supply (Potential Risk)

4 Launches

4 competing off-plan launches tracked in La Mer — potential handover competition

SKID tracks 4 competing off-plan launches in La Mer. While phased handovers and district demand may absorb new inventory, a concentrated pipeline increases potential competition among resale buyers at handover.

Why this matters: Future supply impact is a potential risk rather than a certainty: if multiple towers deliver in the same window, sellers may face longer marketing times or more competitive secondary resale pricing.
