Construction instalments are spread evenly between booking and handover. Real schedules often use fixed dates or construction stages, so check the developer's milestone schedule before you sign.
How the numbers are worked out.
Day one
price × booking% plus 4% registration in Dubai, about AED 4,200 trustee fee, about AED 3,500 administration and, unless you buy direct, 2% commission.
Construction
price × construction% ÷ instalments, one every three or six months from booking until the month before handover.
Handover
100% − booking − construction − after handover. A loan covers up to 50% × price; the rest is cash.
Questions about the calculator.
Where do the real plans come from?
From each developer's published payment schedule, verified between 28 September 2026 and 9 November 2026. Choosing one also loads that project's entry price and handover date.
How are construction instalments spread?
Evenly, every three or six months from booking until handover. Real schedules often use fixed dates or construction stages, so check the developer's milestone schedule.
What is included in day-one cash?
The booking deposit, the 4% Land Department registration fee on a Dubai purchase, a trustee fee of about AED 4,200, developer administration of about AED 3,500 and, unless you buy direct from the developer, a 2% agency commission.
Does the mortgage cover post-handover instalments?
No. Post-handover instalments are developer credit written into your contract, so the calculator applies a loan only to the handover balance.
