## Overview

Select Group was established in Dubai in 2002 and is privately owned, with Rahail Aslam as chairman and Israr Liaqat as group chief executive. It says it has handed over more than 10,000 homes across a development footprint of 24.7 million sq ft, with a gross development value of AED 35.2 billion. It reports about 5,000 further units in its pipeline and a staff of more than 750. It also develops in the United Kingdom, where its completed work includes 98 Baker Street in London.

Its Dubai work is concentrated on the water, in Dubai Marina and Business Bay. Completed projects named on its website include The Residences at Marina Gate, Jumeirah Living Marina Gate, Studio One and 15 Northside. In Business Bay it is the developer of Peninsula, a waterfront master community that includes the completed Jumeirah Living Business Bay, a 35-storey tower of 82 residences.

Branded residences are now its main line at the top end. In July 2026 it completed Six Senses Residences The Palm on the West Crescent of Palm Jumeirah and began handing homes to owners. The company describes it as the first residential development in the Middle East and North Africa to carry the Six Senses name. Six Senses Residences Dubai Marina, a 122-storey tower of 251 residences designed by Woods Bagot, is under construction for handover in 2029. It is also building at Dubai Design District (d3), where Artistry Two Residences followed Artistry One in February 2026.

On payment terms, Artistry Two was launched with what the company called a flexible 50/50 plan and a likely handover in 2029. A 50/50 split means half the price falls due at completion, which is a firmer structure than the long post-handover plans common lower down the market.

## Strengths

- More than 10,000 homes handed over since 2002, by the company's count, including Marina Gate in Dubai Marina.
- Completed and began handover of Six Senses Residences The Palm in July 2026, during a difficult year for the market.
- Works with established hotel brands (Six Senses, part of IHG, and Jumeirah) on its branded residences.
- Sites are in mature waterfront districts with existing transport, retail and rental demand.

## Considerations for buyers

- Branded residences carry higher purchase prices and service charges. Ask what the operator is contractually committed to provide, and for how long.
- A 50/50 plan, as offered at Artistry Two, leaves half the price due at handover. Arrange a mortgage or cash for that well ahead.
- Dubai Marina and Business Bay have a large stock of competing apartments, and more is being built in both.
- Six Senses Residences Dubai Marina, its flagship tower, is still under development. Take the completion date from the sale agreement and follow construction progress.
- Select Group is private. We found no published accounts or credit rating.
