Danube Properties Dubai: who the developer is and what it builds
Danube Properties Dubai is the property-development arm of Danube Group, a Dubai-headquartered group whose roots, according to its own About page, lie in a single store opened in Deira about 30 years ago. Danube Group says it now operates in nine countries across the Middle East and Asia with more than 3,500 staff, and that its businesses include building materials, home furniture retail and a cladding-panel factory alongside the property company. The property company is the one buyers meet today: it markets studios, one- to four-bedroom apartments, townhouses and villas in communities across Dubai, and it is known for a monthly payment plan that Danube describes as 1% of the price per month. That is why Danube Properties Dubai has its own profile in our developers section.
On its homepage Danube Properties Dubai reports 32 projects launched, 16 delivered and 16 under construction, with construction spanning more than 25.5 million square feet. Our site lists 30 of its projects, from completed buildings in Al Furjan, Arjan and Dubai Studio City to towers in Business Bay, Jumeirah Lake Towers and Dubai Maritime City that the developer shows as under construction. Because 30 separate headings would be hard to read, this page groups the projects by community, gives one summary table, and uses the developer’s own project pages as the first source for each figure. Our listing pages are linked from every project name, and our own article, Danube property in Dubai, gives a shorter buyer-side overview.
This profile covers Danube Properties Dubai in ten parts: the group’s background, a table of key facts, the project groups, a chronology of launches and handovers, the way a Dubai off-plan purchase is registered, the ownership and Golden Visa position, a list of key facts, how Danube compares with other developers we profile, a checklist of what to prepare when reserving, and a set of frequently asked questions. Everything was checked on 11 October 2026 against the developer’s website and public sources listed at the end. Where the developer states something, we say “according to the developer”. For the wider map of the city, see our Dubai market guide and the Real estate developers in Dubai hub.

Ownership, history and backing of Danube Properties Dubai
Danube Group’s origin story has been told in the press by its founder. A Gulf News Property magazine profile from September 2018 says Rizwan Sajan grew up in Mumbai, worked in building-materials trading in Kuwait, moved to Dubai at the end of 1991 and built a trading business under the Danube name, which he took from the River Danube. The article describes the early business as an indenting and agency operation that grew through galvanised-sheet distribution and then expanded to Sharjah, Abu Dhabi and Al Ain, with 18 showrooms in the UAE at the time of writing. It names his brother Anis Sajan as managing director and his son Adel Sajan as a director. Today the leadership page lists Rizwan Sajan as founder and chairman, Anis Sajan as vice chairman and Adel Sajan as group managing director, and the management page lists Madhusudhan Rao as CEO of Danube Group and Ghayyour Ahmad as general manager for projects and development.
The group describes its other businesses on the About page: Danube Building Material, with more than 25,000 products; Danube Home, a furniture retail brand present in the UAE, Saudi Arabia, Oman, Bahrain, Qatar, Kuwait, India and Africa; and Alucopanel, a UAE factory for A2-grade facade cladding panels. Danube Properties Dubai sits within this structure as a subsidiary. Gulf News describes it as a private real estate developer, and the sources for this profile are the developer’s own pages, trade press and Dubai government material.
The group’s ties to the property market run through its supply business. At the launch of Greenz, which the developer dates to April 2026, Sheikh Nahyan bin Mubarak Al Nahyan, the UAE Minister of Tolerance and Coexistence, spoke about the company’s long relationship with the UAE through the building-materials sector before it expanded into development, according to Danube’s own report of the event. Danube says the Coca-Cola Arena launch drew more than 7,000 attendees. The company has also announced steps beyond Dubai: a new sales office at 44 Brompton Road in Knightsbridge, following an office in Harrow that opened about two years earlier, and a land purchase from AD Ports Group of about one million square metres of freehold land in KEZAD Town Centre, Abu Dhabi, valued at around AED 840 million, signed on 16 January 2026. Neither step changes what is on offer in Dubai, but both show the company’s current activity beyond its Dubai towers.
Danube Properties Dubai projects we list, grouped by community
The 30 projects below are the ones on our site. They are grouped by the community the developer’s own project page names. Unit counts, handover targets and starting prices are the developer’s figures from its project pages as read on 11 October 2026. Where a project page shows no starting price (it displays “sold out” in that field), the summary table uses the studio price on our listing page, marked L, and where the developer’s page gives a price, it is marked D. Sizes in square feet are the studio sizes quoted on our listing pages, and the price per square foot in the table is the entry price divided by that size. Dollar amounts use the 3.6725 peg. For how to read per-square-foot figures, see our Dubai price per square metre guide.
Business Bay: Bayz and Bayz 102
Bayz is a completed building in Business Bay with 463 apartments, according to the developer, in studio, one-, two- and three-bedroom layouts. The developer’s page mentions Italian fixtures, a rooftop pool, a party hall and a gym, and gives travel times of about 8 minutes to Business Bay metro station and 10 minutes to Downtown Dubai. The developer’s journey page lists Bayz among the projects completed in 2021. On our listing the studio price is AED 500,000 ($136,147) with studio sizes from 407 sq ft, which is about AED 1,229 per sq ft (entry price divided by size).
Bayz 102 is the newer tower, launched in September 2024 according to the developer’s timeline. Its project page describes 102 levels, 956 apartments from studios to four-bedroom units and penthouses, furnishings by the Italian brand Dolce Vita, and a helipad. The page gives a completion of June 2029 and a plan label of 30/70.

A sister tower, Bayz 101 (1,346 apartments, June 2028, from AED 1,175,000), is on the developer’s site but not among our listings. In a Danube announcement the two Business Bay towers were offered with a limited-time 0% down payment and 2% monthly instalments; the announcement describes the towers as rising over 100 storeys, two minutes from Downtown Dubai and within walking distance of the metro station. Terms of such offers change, so check them on the day you reserve.

Gulf News reported in April 2024 that the building is a 65-storey tower and that its gym uses equipment from Being Strong, a fitness-equipment company associated with the actor Salman Khan. The page lists a 2-minute trip to the DMCC metro station and 10 minutes to Marina Walk. With studios of about 400 sq ft on our listing, the entry price works out to about AED 2,750 per sq ft. Our areas guide sets Jumeirah Lake Towers beside the other waterfront communities.

The Jewelz and Miraclz pages put Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road about one minute away, and the Resortz page places the Miracle Garden next door. The developer’s project pages show no starting price for these completed buildings, so the figures here are from our listings and should be checked against current availability.
Al Furjan: Starz, Sparklz, Pearlz, Gemz, Dreamz and Glamz
Al Furjan is where the developer’s older and newer projects sit side by side. Dreamz is a community of 171 three- and four-bedroom townhouses, listed as completed in 2017 and described by the developer as its first completed project, with more than 40% of the land given to open space.

How to read the table: D means the price is the developer’s own starting price from its project page or FAQ; L means the studio price on our listing page. Price per sq ft is the entry price divided by the studio size on our listing, so it describes the smallest unit and not the project as a whole. Dashes mean our listing gives no size we can rely on. Tenure is shown as freehold on our listing pages and in the developer’s Golden Visa page, which refers to freehold purchases; the sale and purchase agreement records the title category for each unit.
Payment plans shown on our listings
The developer describes its plan on its 1% payment plan page: a small down payment of around 20%, a monthly payment of 1%, and the balance collected once the building is ready, which it says has been used for more than 15,000 apartments. Project pages show labels such as 30/70, and the plan for each project is set in its sale and purchase agreement. The launch-era terms printed on our listing pages are below; they describe how those projects were first sold and are not a current offer.
| Project | On booking | During construction | On handover | After handover |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Wavez | 10% | 50% | – | 40% over 40 months |
| Viewz | 10% | 55% | – | 35% over 35 months |
| Timez | AED 50,000 token | 70% (including booking balance) | – | 30% over 30 months |

| Skyz | 10% | 32% | 10% | 48% over 48 months |
| Petalz | 10% | 38% | 2% | 50% |

The pattern is a single deposit, instalments during construction and a post-handover tail of 1% per month. For Greenz, the developer’s page describes a 20% down payment, 1% monthly for 40 months and a final 40% after completion. For how instalments interact with a mortgage, see our mortgage guide for foreigners.
Danube Properties Dubai portfolio and track record
The developer’s Our Journey page gives a dated chronology, which we summarise here with outside sources where they exist. Danube Group dates to 1993. In 2017 the page lists Dreamz as the first completed project and Glitz 1 and Glitz 2 as completed, followed by Glitz 3 in 2018. The page lists Resortz, Glamz and Starz as completed in 2019, Miraclz and Bayz in 2021 and Lawnz in 2022, and shows launches of Jewelz (2018), Olivz and Wavez (2019) and Skyz (2021).
From 2022 the page lists several launches a year, among them Pearlz, Gemz and Opalz in 2022, Petalz in October 2022 and Elitz in November 2022; Viewz in January 2023, Fashionz in April 2023, Elitz 2 in July, Elitz 3 in August, Oceanz in September, Eleganz in October and Sportz in November 2023; Bayz 101 in January 2024, Diamondz in April 2024, Bayz 102 and Oasiz in September 2024 and Oasiz 2 in October 2024; Timez in February 2025, Sparklz in April 2025, Aspirz in May 2025, Breez in September 2025, Shahrukhz in November 2025, Serenz in February 2026 and Greenz in April 2026. The developer’s pages do not name every project in the same status group, so the counters on its homepage (32 launched, 16 delivered, 16 under construction) are the figures to quote, and the menu lists separately named phases such as Elitz 2 and 3 and Oasiz 2.
Three handovers in 2024 and 2025 are documented outside the developer’s site. Pearlz was handed over on 29 May 2024, about six months ahead of its planned date, according to Gulf News. Gemz handovers began on 14 November 2024, five months ahead of schedule, according to Middle East Construction News. Opalz was handed over in April 2025, which The Arabian Post calls the third consecutive early completion. In the same July 2026 report Danube Properties Dubai said it was preparing to deliver 11 developments across Dubai, naming Fashionz, Viewz, Elitz, Sportz, Diamondz, Oceanz, Bayz 101, Timez and Oasiz among them; the report also states that title deeds are typically issued 30 to 90 days after handover once payments, service charges and paperwork are complete, and quotes Vice-Chairman Anis Sajan saying Danube expects to introduce two or three projects in the 2026-27 financial year.
The newest launches are outside the 30 on our site. Greenz is a gated community of 768 townhouses and villas near Dubai International Academic City with a starting price of AED 3,800,000 ($1,034,717) and a Q4 2029 completion on the project page; the Arabian Post report says the first phase is about 750 homes with a sales value of about $1.3 billion, nearly 40% of it sold. Serenz is a 50-storey tower in Jumeirah Village Circle with 1,250 apartments from AED 1,100,000, due 2029. Breez is a 60-floor tower in Dubai Maritime City with 1,200 apartments, shown at 2029 on the project page, and Middle East Construction News gives an anticipated completion of July 2029. Shahrukhz is a 55-storey office tower on Sheikh Zayed Road with 615 commercial units from AED 1,900,000, due 2029. Shahrukhz Residences is a residential tower in Dubai Maritime City from AED 1,650,000, due Q4 2029. For the developer’s wider project list, see its project pages for Timez, Greenz and Serenz.
How buying works with Danube Properties Dubai
Buying from Danube Properties Dubai follows the standard Dubai off-plan sequence, and the steps are the same for completed units bought from the developer. The developer’s own FAQ page says buyers select a property, complete the booking process and receive guidance on next steps through its sales team, and that the documents usually needed are a valid passport plus anything requested during booking, depending on the buyer’s residency status. Our off-plan buyer guide covers the same ground in more detail; the short version follows.
- Choose a unit and reserve. The reservation form records the unit, the price and the deposit. On the Timez listing the booking token is AED 50,000 ($13,615); other projects set a percentage of the price, as in the payment table above.
- Sign the sale and purchase agreement. The Dubai Land Department’s service page says the sale and purchase contract must be signed by both developer and purchaser. The agreement sets the price, the payment schedule, the handover date and the unit description.
- Interim registration (Oqood). Under Dubai Law No. 13 of 2008 off-plan sale contracts are entered in the Interim Property Register. The Land Department service page says the developer registers the sale in the provisional register within 90 days from the date of signing, lists a fee of 2% of the sale value for each of seller and purchaser plus AED 10 knowledge and AED 10 innovation fees, and says the output is a provisional registration e-certificate.
- Escrow. Under Law No. 8 of 2007 a developer selling off-plan opens a bank account in the project’s name, buyer payments are deposited into it, and each project has its own account. The reservation paperwork should name the escrow account to which instalments are paid.
- Instalments. Payments follow the schedule in the agreement; under the developer’s 1% structure that is a deposit, construction-stage payments and monthly instalments, some of them after handover.
- Handover and inspection. Gulf News describes an open house at Pearlz in May 2024 where units were handed to buyers. Read the handover clauses of the agreement before the date, and keep the inspection record.
- Title deed. According to the July 2026 report, title deeds are typically issued 30 to 90 days after handover once payments, service charges and paperwork are complete. Our Dubai property tax guide lists the fees and annual charges to expect.
Buyers who finance part of the price should read our mortgage guide, and buyers who want to plan succession should read our inheritance guide. Anyone buying from outside the UAE can start with our guide to foreign ownership, and our budget guide shows the cash needed beyond the price. If you want to compare a listed price with the market, our below-market-value guide explains the method.
Ownership route and Golden Visa for Danube Properties Dubai buyers
The tenure shown for Danube Properties Dubai projects is freehold, and the developer’s FAQ says international buyers can purchase off-plan and ready property in Dubai’s designated freehold areas, subject to the applicable laws. The ownership rights, inheritance position and registration fees are covered in our freehold and leasehold guide.
Our Golden Visa guide states that a property investment of AED 2,000,000 ($544,588) or more is the threshold for the 10-year property route, that the Dubai Land Department valuation on the application day decides the value, that off-plan units from a Land Department-approved developer are considered on that valuation, and that mortgaged property needs the lender’s no-objection certificate. The UAE Government portal lists a minimum capital of AED 2,000,000 for the investor category. Danube Properties Dubai describes the process on its Golden Visa page as buying freehold property, completing payments in full and acquiring the title deed, then applying through the online portal. Our guide notes a February 2026 change to the minimum-equity rule, so check the current requirement with the Land Department or the Federal Authority for Identity, Citizenship, Customs and Port Security before relying on any single page.
No project gives a visa by itself. Whether a purchase reaches the threshold depends on the unit price and the valuation. These are the price points that sit on either side of AED 2,000,000.
| Project | Price point (source) | Against AED 2,000,000 |
|---|---|---|
| Oasiz | Studios from AED 699,000; three-bedrooms from AED 1,755,000 (developer FAQ) | Below |
| Timez | Studios from AED 800,000 to 871,000 (developer) | Below |
| Sparklz | Studios from AED 900,000 (developer) | Below |
| Viewz | From AED 950,000 (developer FAQ) | Below |
| Diamondz | Studios from AED 1,100,000; one-bedrooms from AED 1,750,000 (developer FAQ) | Below |
| Diamondz private-pool apartments | AED 2,100,000 to AED 5,300,000 (developer FAQ) | At or above |
| Bayz 102 | Studios from AED 1,270,000; one-bedroom executive from AED 2,230,000; two-bedrooms from AED 3,050,000 (developer FAQ) | Studios below; larger units at or above |
| Dreamz | Three-bedroom townhouses from AED 2,100,000 (our listing) | At or above |
A buyer can also combine properties, as our guide notes, so two units that each sit below AED 2,000,000 can reach the threshold together, provided the combined valuation meets it.
