Binghatti Projects in Dubai: Prices, Payment Plans and Handover Dates
Binghatti is the developer whose buildings you recognise before you read the name — the folded, interlocking balcony facades that have gone up across Business Bay, JVC and Al Jaddaf in the last few years. It builds at volume and at speed, and it has spent the last two years moving up the price ladder, from studios under a million dirhams to a branded tower marketed as the tallest residential building in the world.
Four Binghatti projects are on our list and they sit at four very different points of that ladder. This page sets out what each costs, what the payment plan is, and the one pattern worth knowing about before you buy off-plan from this developer.
Key takeaways
- Entry is AED 777,777 at Binghatti Hills in Dubai Science Park, on a 70/30 plan with 20% down.
- The top of the range is AED 8.4 million for a two-bedroom at Burj Binghatti Jacob & Co Residences — a 557 m, 104-floor branded tower on the Dubai Canal.
- Two of the four have moved their handover dates. Burj Binghatti was sold as June 2026 and the latest report puts completion in Q4 2027; Binghatti Hills has passed its Q2 2026 launch date, with brokers printing Q4 2026 and one portal 15 April 2027.
- The plans are consistent: 70/30 on three of the four, 60/40 on the Downtown tower, with 10% to 20% on booking.
- Scale is the developer's signature. Binghatti Hills alone holds 1,666 apartments and 21 shops; Aquarise an estimated 1,626 units. Large buildings let quickly and resell into their own supply.
The four projects
| Project | Community | From | Plan | Handover |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Binghatti Hills | Dubai Science Park | AED 777,777 | 70/30, 20% down | Contested — Q4 2026 to Apr 2027 |
| Binghatti Aquarise | Business Bay | AED 1.15 M | 70/30 | June 2027 |
| Binghatti Skyblade | Downtown Dubai | AED 1,674,999 | 60/40, 10% on booking | November 2027 |
| Burj Binghatti Jacob & Co | Business Bay | AED 8.4 M | 70/30 | December 2027 |
Binghatti Hills, Dubai Science Park
The developer's largest single project: 1,666 studios, one and two-bedroom apartments plus 21 shops in a twin-tower building at Al Barsha South. From AED 777,777, with the smallest units from about 446 sq ft. Most sources cap the size range at 1,884 sq ft; one prints 4,200 sq ft for the largest layout, which is the sort of discrepancy to settle with the layout sheet rather than the listing.
Binghatti Aquarise, Business Bay
A 28-level tower with an estimated 1,626 homes from studios to four-bedrooms, plus Royal Suites with private pools and 28 retail units. The listing price is AED 1.15 million; the developer's own studio price is AED 999,999, so ask which unit each figure refers to before treating either as the entry point. Handover is on record for 30 June 2027.
Binghatti Skyblade, Downtown Dubai
621 residences in Downtown, and the widest internal price spread of the four: studios from AED 1,674,999, premium studios from AED 1,774,999, one-bedrooms from AED 3,649,999 and three-bedroom Burj Royal Wing units from AED 14,499,999. That is a Downtown address being priced as a Downtown address. Sold on a 60/40 plan with 10% on booking, handover 30 November 2027.
Burj Binghatti Jacob & Co Residences
The flagship: 104 floors and 557 m on the Dubai Canal in Business Bay, built with the jeweller Jacob & Co and intended to be the tallest residential building in the world. Two-bedroom Sapphire suites start at AED 8.4 million, three-bedroom Emerald suites at AED 10 million, on a 70/30 plan, with half-floor sky mansions and penthouses above that. It was sold as a June 2026 handover; the latest report puts completion in Q4 2027.
The pattern to price in
Two of these four have slipped. That is common enough in Dubai that it should not stop a purchase, but it should change how you plan one. If you are buying off-plan to let, do not model rent from the brochure date — model it from the date written into your sales agreement, and ask what compensation, if any, the contract gives you if that date moves. If you are buying to live in, check the current construction percentage yourself rather than accepting a percentage quoted by a broker.
The protection that does not depend on any of this is the escrow account. Off-plan payments in Dubai are held in a DLD-approved escrow account under Law 8 of 2007, released to the developer against construction milestones. Ask for the account details and the project number on the Land Department record, and pay into nothing else.
What the money buys, by budget
| Budget | The Binghatti option | What you give up |
|---|---|---|
| Under AED 1 M | Binghatti Hills studio | Al Barsha South, not a prime address; a very large building |
| AED 1 - 2 M | Aquarise in Business Bay | Two more years of construction |
| AED 1.7 - 3.6 M | Skyblade studios and one-beds, Downtown | Downtown pricing per square foot |
| AED 8 M+ | Burj Binghatti branded suites | A resale market of a few hundred buyers |
Anything at AED 2 million and above also clears the Golden Visa threshold in a single purchase, which at this developer means Skyblade's one-bedrooms and everything in the flagship.
How Binghatti compares
Against Emaar, you are trading delivery record for price: Emaar's communities cost more per square foot and its schedule record is the best of the majors. Against DAMAC, the comparison is closer — both build at volume, both lean on branded partnerships. What Binghatti has that most mid-tier developers do not is a design signature strong enough that buyers recognise the building, which helps resale in a market where one tower looks much like the next. Our page on Dubai's developers puts the majors side by side, and every live Binghatti project is on the Binghatti projects page.
FAQs
Is Binghatti a reliable developer in Dubai?
It is one of the higher-volume private developers in the city with a large delivered portfolio, and its buildings are distinctive enough to be recognised at resale. Its weak point in our own records is schedule: two of the four projects we track have moved their completion dates.
What is the cheapest Binghatti project?
Binghatti Hills in Dubai Science Park, from AED 777,777 for the smallest apartments at about 446 sq ft, on a 70/30 plan with 20% payable on booking.
When will Burj Binghatti Jacob & Co be completed?
It was marketed for a June 2026 handover and the most recent report we have puts completion in the fourth quarter of 2027. Ask for the date in the sales agreement and the current construction percentage before relying on either.
What payment plans does Binghatti offer?
Mostly 70/30 — about 70% during construction and 30% at handover, with 10% to 20% on booking. The Downtown tower is sold on a 60/40 instead, with 10% on booking.
Do Binghatti apartments qualify for the Golden Visa?
Those priced at AED 2 million or more do, which on our list means the one-bedrooms and larger at Skyblade and everything at Burj Binghatti. The studios at Hills and the entry units at Aquarise fall below the threshold.
Before you book
Ask for the project number, the escrow account, the layout sheet with the title-deed area and the handover date in the contract. Then add 6% to 7% for the fees on top of the price and check the service charge estimate for the building — in a tower of 1,600 apartments it is a meaningful annual figure. Tell us your budget and whether the purchase is for rent, a visa or to live in, and we will tell you which of the four fits. Everything we track is on the Dubai property list.
