Overview

Apartments and offices in one mixed-use development inside DAMAC Hills, linked to DAMAC Hills Mall. One-bedroom apartments listed from AED 1,447,000 in November 2026, with handover due in Q3 2029.

DAMAC District is a mixed-use development by DAMAC inside DAMAC Hills, the established golf community in Dubailand. It puts apartments and office space in the same scheme and shares a set of wellness and leisure facilities between them: an organic pool, garden yoga, padel courts, a gym with AI-assisted training, private dining pods and co-working space. DAMAC says the development connects directly to DAMAC Hills Mall, with the Trump International Golf Club Dubai close by. DAMAC records the launch as September 2025 and its unit cards give handover in the third quarter of 2029.

On 13 November 2026 DAMAC's website listed nine one-bedroom apartments, from 800 to 950 sq ft and priced from AED 1,447,000 to AED 1,646,000. These are the units on offer in November 2026, not the full range in the building. DAMAC's FAQ also mentions two-bedroom apartments, but none was listed online that day and Property Finder showed its two-bedroom type as out of stock, so we have left them out here. If a two-bedroom layout is what you need, ask us to check with DAMAC directly.

The project page headlines a 60/40 payment plan, but the schedule DAMAC publishes for the one-bedroom units (plan PP-648114, November 2026) reads differently. It asks for 9% immediately, then 12 instalments totalling 45% between month 1 and month 30 after purchase, and 50% on completion. Those figures add up to 104% because the immediate payment includes the 4% DLD registration fee, so the developer's own split is 5% on booking, 45% during construction and 50% on completion. Half the price therefore falls due at handover, which suits buyers who plan to arrange a mortgage or sell around that date.

The sources do not fully agree. Property Finder showed developer stock as sold out on 13 November 2026, with resale listings available; DAMAC's own site still listed nine units. Property Finder also gives completion as March 2029 rather than the third quarter, a booking date of February 2026 and a 20/40/40 plan. We treat DAMAC's own figures as the reference, and the sale and purchase agreement as the document that counts.

Who it suits: buyers who want a compact apartment in a finished community with retail and a school already open, and investors who see rental appeal in homes beside office space. What to weigh: handover is almost three years away, half the price is due on completion, and a building shared with offices may have a more complex service charge structure. DAMAC's FAQ puts Jebel Ali School about 5 minutes away and Al Maktoum International Airport about 28 minutes by car.

Buying costs

Government fees are paid on top of the purchase price. This is the position for the entry-level home; costs scale with price. In Dubai the registration authority is the DLD.

Purchase priceEntry 1-bedroom apartment at DAMAC DistrictAED 1,447,000
DLD transfer fee (4%)Paid to the Dubai Land Department on registration. The department lists it as 2% from each party, but contracts almost always pass the full 4% to the buyer, so a developer's '50% DLD waiver' means the developer is paying its own listed half. Off-plan, it is paid when the sale is registered in the Oqood system.AED 57,880
Oqood registration admin feeOqood portal fee of AED 1,000 plus knowledge and innovation fees, for registering the off-plan sale contract.AED 1,020
Estimated total to completeAED 1,505,900about £309K

Developers may add their own administration charge on off-plan sales. It is set by the developer, not the land department, so it is not included in this estimate: ask for it in writing before you reserve. Adjust the assumptions in the buying cost calculator.
