Meraas offers flexible and well-structured payment plans, with the most common option being a 75/25 payment plan. This typically includes an initial booking deposit, followed by staged instalments during the construction phase covering 75% of the property value, with the remaining 25% payable on handover.
Depending on the project, Meraas may also provide alternative structures such as 60/40 or 50/50 plans, as well as staged instalments with low initial deposits, often starting from around 10–20% on booking. In select developments, extended post-handover payment options may be available, allowing buyers to spread payments beyond completion. This approach helps minimise upfront capital while aligning payments with construction progress and long-term financial planning, enhancing both accessibility and investment potential in Dubai’s property market.
Meraas is widely considered a strong investment option within Dubai’s real estate market. As a design‑driven developer with more than 15 years of experience and now part of Dubai Holding Real Estate, Meraas benefits from a powerful land bank and strategic backing that supports large‑scale developments and long‑term growth.
Properties developed by Meraas, such as City Walk, Bluewaters Island, La Mer, and Nad Al Sheba Gardens, are located in high‑demand areas with strong rental and capital appreciation metrics, often delivering gross yields in the 5–8% range and solid resale performance compared to broader market averages. Their projects combine lifestyle amenities, waterfront access, and premium urban convenience, which help sustain both rental occupancy and price growth over time.
