Binghatti Aquarise Dubai: Business Bay Sources and Prices

Binghatti Aquarise Dubai is a residential and retail tower project in Business Bay, Dubai, which the developer’s page lists with studios to four-bedroom apartments from AED 999,999 (about USD 272,294 at the pegged rate of 3.6725) on 14 November 2026.

This guide to Binghatti Aquarise Dubai sets the developer’s page and its Project Facts sheet beside seven portal, tracker and broker sites read on the same day. Status, handover, price, payment plan and even the number of buildings are printed differently from one source to the next, so each figure appears with its source and none is chosen.

It adds the unit-count arithmetic, the printed sizes, the location, the Dubai off-plan rules with official sources, and a list of what to ask for in writing before reserving.

Overview of Binghatti Aquarise Dubai

According to the developer’s project page, read on 14 November 2026, Binghatti Aquarise stands in Business Bay and carries the status label "Available". It lists five unit types, written as Studio, 1 BR, 2 BR, 3 BR and 4 BR. The header prints "FROM" beside 999,999, with the currency shown as a symbol image, and the developer’s project list prints the same figure as "Starting AED 999,999".

That figure is AED 999,999, which is about USD 272,294 at 3.6725 dirhams per US dollar (999,999 divided by 3.6725). The page does not say which unit type it belongs to. It prints no construction percentage, and its only dated statement about completion is a line in its question-and-answer block that gives the first quarter of 2027. One broker page, discussed in section 6, pairs a figure of AED 999,000 with studios.

The developer describes the design as inspired by the sea shore and says the apartments are generally offered furnished. Its Project Facts sheet, a page image that the project page links to, adds the plot area, the floor structure and a count for each unit type. The page speaks of "the tower" in the singular, whereas one property-data site records four separate building entries; section 4 sets the two side by side.

The table gives the main facts as the developer prints them and marks what is missing. Everything else in this guide is attributed to a named source and a date, and the Dubai rules in section 8 come from official pages.

What each source prints about status, handover, floors, units and tenure

The developer’s page and its facts sheet were read beside Property Finder’s project page, the handover tracker of realestateclubdubai.com, the four building pages of famproperties.com, and the broker pages of Huspy, Off-Plan Properties, Projects Scout and Inside Realty. Pages that show no date are marked so. A blank cell means the page does not print the item, and no row is treated as the correct one.

The status labels in this table do not necessarily contradict one another. A developer label of "Available" describes a project that is open for enquiries; a portal tag of "Sold out" describes that portal’s own sales phase; and a tracker percentage describes registry readings. The three can all be true at once or none of them may be. What they cannot do is establish what a particular unit costs or when it will be handed over.

That is why the dated tables in the following sections matter more than any single label.

Floors and buildings are the second area where the sources part ways. The developer’s FAQ and facts sheet describe one tower; Property Finder also counts one building; famproperties lists four. The tracker and the developer give totals of 1,602 and 1,598 units. Section 4 works through these totals unit type by unit type.

The Inside Realty page also prints a floor count that does not match the developer’s facts sheet, and the same page lists handover quarters for other projects, so only its unit total and plan are used here. Where a figure is read from a page image, as with the developer’s facts sheet, it is checked against the arithmetic of the page: the five unit counts add to 1,598 exactly.

Status and handover: the dated readings of 14 November 2026

The developer’s page prints one dated statement about completion: the question "When is the completion date for Binghatti Aquarise?" is answered "The expected completion date is in Quarter 1, 2027". It prints no day, no construction percentage and no sign of which tower or which units the date covers. Other pages print other dates, and the table lists every one that was read directly, in order from the earliest.

Two other pieces of arithmetic put the spread in context. The end of the first quarter of 2027 is 31 March 2027; Property Finder’s 30 October 2027 falls seven months after that. And October 2026, the tracker’s expected month, sits twelve months before October 2027. The Off-Plan Properties box that prints July 2029 stands apart from every other reading, and the same page’s text gives June 2027, so the two statements on that page differ from each other as well.

Search-result snippets for further portals also showed dates, but those pages were not opened and are left out. The sources above carry the dates each of them prints, and no source’s date is treated as an update of another’s, because the pages do not say when they were last edited.

Property Finder’s page also prints a project timeline: booking started on 15 March 2025 and construction started on 16 March 2025. It tags the project "Sold out" in the same view in which its embedded data holds a stock field reading "available". The developer’s project list carries a launch-date attribute of 2025-04-17 in its page code; that attribute is not displayed text, so it is recorded here only as an attribute.

The tracker’s readings need their own table, because the series changes on one date. Its page states that it tracks the project against the DLD project registry and was last verified against the registry on 12 November 2026.

The change from 21 percent to 100 percent between 5 and 9 November 2026 is recorded here and not resolved. The tracker page gives no reason for it, and the famproperties pages print a third figure. The developer’s page prints no percentage at all.

The Dubai Land Department describes where a buyer can check progress for any registered project. Its FAQ says completion percentages come from technical reports, that a technical report is valid for three months, and that progress is shown in the Department’s project-status service, which has its own official page. That is the check to run on the day of signing, with the project’s registration number.

One tower or four buildings: the unit-count arithmetic

This section is the closest look at the numbers, because the sources describe the building in different ways. The developer’s facts line reads "3B + G + Mezzanine + 25 Residential Floors + Mechanical Room + Roof". Counting each item in that line once gives 3 + 1 + 1 + 25 + 1 + 1 = 32 levels.

The FAQ’s "about 29 total floors" equals 3 basements, 25 residential floors and the rooftop level (3 + 25 + 1 = 29). Both statements are the developer’s own and they count levels in different ways.

The developer’s unit counts add up as printed: 688 + 736 + 152 + 10 + 12 = 1,598. Adding the 28 ground-floor retail units gives 1,626 units of every kind, a figure the developer does not print. In the table, the shares are calculated from the developer’s counts and rounded to one decimal place.

Studios and one-bedroom units together make up 1,424 of the developer’s 1,598 residential units, or 89.1 percent (calculated). Two-bedroom homes are 152, and the three- and four-bedroom homes together are 22, or 1.4 percent. The Royal Suites that the FAQ mentions are described only as a "limited collection" of two and three bedroom units. The facts sheet counts by bedroom number, so no page read says how many of the 152 and 10 are Royal Suites.

The famproperties pages treat the project as four building entries, A, B, C and D, each tied to Dubai Land Department sale records. The pages print per-type counts with the word "about", and the totals the pages print match the sums of those counts, as the table below shows.

Two patterns stand out in that table. Towers A and D carry the same counts for homes, and so do Towers B and C. And the commercial units across the four entries add to 28, the same number as the developer’s retail count. What the pages do not say is how the developer’s single "tower" and the four registry entries relate to one another, or whether a unit-by-unit schedule would reproduce either set of counts.

The tracker’s 1,602 units sit four above the developer’s 1,598 residential units, and 44 above the 1,558 of famproperties (calculated). Whether the tracker counts retail units is not stated. Totals of this kind are reconciled in the sales documents, where each unit has a number, a tower or block, a floor and an area, and that is the place to resolve them for a purchase.

The plot area is a further item with an unclear scope. The facts sheet prints 21,589.98 square metres and 232,392.38 square feet; dividing the second figure by 10.7639 square feet per square metre returns the first, so the two are the same area in two units. The sheet does not say whether this is the land of one tower or of the whole site, and it prints no plot number. A site plan attached to the sale agreement is the document that settles it.

Unit types, sizes, furnishing and amenities as printed

The developer’s page and facts sheet print no apartment sizes. Sizes come from portals, which in turn take them from layout schedules or from Dubai Land Department records, and the sources differ. The table sets them side by side, in square feet as printed and in square metres by arithmetic (square feet divided by 10.7639).

Property Finder also lists the bathrooms of each layout. Studios show one. The one-bedroom layouts show one or two; the two-bedroom layouts two to four; the three-bedroom layouts three to six; and the two four-bedroom layouts five each. The two-bedroom layouts whose names carry "+ Pool" run from 2,355 to 3,127 square feet in that listing. No page read says that these are the Royal Suites, so the guide does not link the two.

The ranges differ between sources by more than rounding. The four-bedroom range on Property Finder (2,385 to 2,718 square feet) and the one on famproperties (3,840 to 3,880) do not overlap, and the Off-Plan Properties page prints "TBA" for studio size. A layout schedule with the total area, the balcony area and the area on the title is the document that fixes the size of a particular unit, and Dubai’s registration rules treat area as a term to be written into the contract.

On furnishing, the developer’s FAQ says the apartments are generally offered furnished, and its gallery shows living-room and bedroom renderings. The pages read do not list what the furnishing contains, which units are included, or what the price covers. That is a point for the schedule of finishes, listed in section 9.

For amenities, the developer’s page text carries no list. Its image set includes renderings of a pool deck and of an artificial beach, and the facts sheet names none. Portals fill the gap, and their lists do not match one another, as the table shows. Marketing adjectives are dropped from the entries.

The three lists on Property Finder alone disagree on whether the pool is indoor or temperature-controlled and on whether a sauna, a cinema or a cycle track is included. Of the amenities on this site’s feature list, only the swimming pool is shown by the developer, in a rendering; the gym, sauna and barbecue areas appear on portal lists only. The amenity schedule in the agreement, with its handover specification, is the reference.

Prices in AED and USD, and four payment plans

The developer prints one price figure, AED 999,999, as the starting point on its page and its project list. Portals and brokers print others, which differ because they refer to different unit types, different dates or different sources. The table gives each as printed with the dollar equivalent worked out at the pegged rate of 3.6725; the rate itself is shown on the Central Bank of the UAE exchange-rate table for September 2026.

Property Finder’s area page adds the resale side. It lists 135 units for sale in the building, from AED 950,000 to AED 7,000,000, with a median of AED 1,920,000 (about USD 522,805), and says its transaction count for the last twelve months is 423. That page shows no date. These are listing-site indications and not developer prices.

Two brokers print a price for each type, which is useful because the developer prints none. The Off-Plan Properties page is undated, and the Inside Realty page is in Russian and gives its own dollar figures, which are not repeated; the dollar column below is recalculated at 3.6725.

The studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom and four-bedroom figures agree between the two brokers apart from the studio’s AED 999 difference; the three-bedroom starting figures differ by AED 500,000. Property Finder’s one-bedroom figure of AED 1,915,000 is AED 65,000 above the brokers’ AED 1,850,000, again by subtraction. None of the three is the developer’s, and none carries a date.

Payment plans differ more than prices do. The developer’s FAQ prints a standard plan of 20, 50 and 30 percent. Property Finder prints 10, 40 and 50 in its key information, and its explanatory sentence under that table reads 20, 50 and 30. Huspy and Off-Plan Properties print 70 and 30, and Projects Scout prints 20, 20 and 60 with no post-handover option. Inside Realty prints both the 20/50/30 plan and a 70/30 plan with 20 percent down.

To show what these plans mean in dirhams, the next table applies each to AED 999,999, the developer’s starting figure. It is arithmetic only: no source says which plan goes with which unit, or whether any of them applies to that figure. Amounts are rounded to the nearest dirham, so each row sums to AED 1,000,000, one dirham above the base.

The DLD’s 4 percent registration fee is a further cost, and its amount is simple to compute. On AED 999,999 it is AED 40,000 (calculated, rounded), about USD 10,892; on AED 1,915,000 it is AED 76,600, about USD 20,858; and on AED 2,000,000 it is AED 80,000, about USD 21,784. Section 8 explains who pays it under the official pages, and says that other fees, such as the knowledge and innovation fees, are listed on the DLD’s own pages.

Service charges are not published on any page read. The DLD’s guide to investors says owners of units in jointly owned property become members of an owners association and pay service charges, so the estimate per square foot for this building is a question for the seller, listed in section 9.

Location of Binghatti Aquarise Dubai: Business Bay and the Dubai Water Canal

The developer places the project "in the heart of Business Bay along the Dubai Water Canal, with direct access to Sheikh Zayed Road", and says it is within easy reach of Downtown Dubai, DIFC and Dubai International Airport. It prints no street address and no plot number, and its map is a search query on the project name. The coordinates 25.176679, 55.273303 come from Property Finder’s location record for the tower and are not printed by the developer.

Business Bay is described on Wikipedia’s Business Bay article as a central business district immediately south of Downtown Dubai, built around an extension of Dubai Creek.

The same page says the Business Bay metro station opened on 15 October 2010. The Dubai Water Canal, per Wikipedia’s Dubai Water Canal article, was inaugurated on 9 November 2016, runs for 3.2 kilometres from Business Bay to the sea through Safa Park and Jumeirah, and is crossed by road bridges for Sheikh Zayed Road, Al Wasl Road and Jumeirah Road. Both are encyclopedia pages, not official ones, and are used for general geography only.

Distances come only from portals, and none of them says whether a figure is a driving time, a walking time or a straight line, or at what hour. The same Property Finder page prints both 15 and 20 minutes to the airport. The table gives each printed figure as it stands.

For a resident the daily detail that matters is the walking route to the nearest metro station and the road access to Sheikh Zayed Road at the hour of use, both of which can be measured on site. The one transport statement in the developer’s own material is in its nine-month results release of 12 November 2026, which says that the Dubai Metro Blue Line (opening 2029) will run through communities that include Business Bay.

The Roads and Transport Authority is the reference for line routes and opening dates, and this guide has not checked that statement against it.

Buying off-plan in Dubai: the rules and the official sources

The rules below apply to an off-plan purchase in Dubai in general. They are not a statement about the legal position of this project, whose registration details are not printed on the pages read. Each row names its source, and the guides to off-plan property in Dubai and to foreign buyers of apartments in Dubai give the wider picture.

In practice these rows describe a sequence. The developer registers the project and opens the escrow account. The buyer signs a reservation form and a sale and purchase agreement. The sale is registered on the interim register through the Oqood portal, instalments are paid into the escrow account, and the title is issued after completion and handover. The DLD pages read do not set a statutory percentage for each instalment, so the instalment schedule is a term of the contract.

Business Bay is described as freehold on Property Finder’s page, and the developer’s page prints no tenure. The designated areas are set by decrees of the Ruler of Dubai, and the Land Department is the body that confirms the status of a plot. The tenure statement belongs in the agreement. The guide to freehold and leasehold in Dubai explains the difference between the two forms of title.

The fee line is easy to misread. The investor guide says the 4 percent is split equally; the DLD’s 2021 release says it is paid under the agreement between seller and buyer; and the initial-sale page lists 2 percent for each side. Who pays what on a given unit is written into the agreement, and a buyer should ask for the total of every fee due at booking, registration and handover.

No residence rights are claimed for any unit in this guide; the rule is stated as the official pages give it. The DLD’s service for real estate investors says an owner of property worth AED 2 million or more at the time of purchase may apply for a renewable residence permit of 10 years.

The UAE portal’s table gives five years for real estate, and the federal ICP page lists a ten-year category and says off-plan units count when bought from an approved local company authorised by the competent authority. The official pages differ on duration, so the authority is asked which applies on the day of application.

Whether any unit would qualify depends on the DLD valuation at the time of the application and on the date of purchase. The Golden Visa guide describes the process in detail, and mortgage guide covers financing for non-residents. No official page read for this guide addresses an owner’s annual tax position, so none is stated; the property tax guide covers the subject.

Statements on returns, taxes and visa eligibility on developer and broker pages are not repeated here. This guide takes the rules from the official pages above, and a buyer confirms them with the Dubai Land Department before paying.

What to ask for in writing before reserving

The pages read agree on the outline and differ on the details. The way to settle each difference for a purchase is to have the answer written into the documents. The list below is what to have in hand before any reservation money or signature.

1. The reservation form and the sale and purchase agreement with the unit number, tower or block, floor, layout type, and the total area in square feet and square metres, including the balcony and any pool or terrace area.
2. The handover date or quarter written into the agreement, with the contract terms for a change to it. The pages read print dates from October 2026 to October 2027, and one prints July 2029.
3. The payment schedule with each instalment tied to a stated construction stage or date, and the booking amount. The sources read print four different structures.
4. The name of the project’s escrow account, the bank and the account details, to compare with the DLD records.
5. The DLD project number, the developer’s RERA registration and the permit number on any advertisement, checked on the DLD site.
6. The tenure and the freehold designation of the plot, written into the agreement or shown on the title documents.
7. Which tower or building the unit is in, since the developer describes one tower and one property-data site records four building entries.
8. A written list of every fee due at booking, at registration and at handover, including the 4% DLD fee and who pays each part.
9. The estimated service charge for the unit and the building, and the name of the management company.
10. A schedule of finishes and furnishing saying what is included in the price: kitchen, wardrobes, appliances, flooring and furniture.
11. For a Royal Suite or any layout described as "+ Pool" or "+ Maid", the plan, the areas and the description of the pool or maid’s room in the agreement.
12. The full legal name and registration details of the contracting seller, and the name of the person signing for the developer.
13. The completion percentage shown in the DLD status service on the day of signing and the date of the latest technical report.

Two items matter most when sources differ. The first is the unit’s area: the portals print ranges that do not overlap for some types, and the agreement fixes the area. The second is the handover date, because the developer’s page gives a quarter and the other pages give dates a year apart. Having both in the contract removes the largest gaps visible in this guide.

Other Binghatti projects and nearby Dubai listings

Binghatti Aquarise Dubai is one of 42 projects on the developer’s project list. Binghatti has five other Business Bay projects on that list, and each is a separate building with its own data. The table gives the starting figure on each project card as the developer prints it on 14 November 2026, with the dollar equivalent worked out at 3.6725. Status and handover are not compared, because each page has its own sources.

The two projects with a partner name in their titles are shown as the developer prints them, and this guide says nothing further about the partners. The developer’s wider directory of Dubai builders is the Dubai developers directory.

Other developers have Business Bay projects as well, and four are covered by pages on this site. They are placed here by location only, not ranked against this project, and each page carries its own sources and dates.

Dubai-wide context is in the Dubai market guide, the Dubai city page and the UAE country page.

Binghatti Developers (the developer)

The sections below use only what the developer’s own pages state, and each figure is dated. The developer’s About page says the company was started in 2008 by Dr. Hussain Binghatti, who gave it his late father’s name, and it lists a founder, a chairman, a vice-chairman and a chief executive officer by name. The company is Binghatti Holding Limited, trading as Binghatti or Binghatti Developers, and the footer gives its address as Sheikh Zayed Road, Dubai.

Its nine-month 2026 results release of 12 November 2026 describes it as a vertically integrated developer, with in-house design, development, construction and delivery, a portfolio exceeding 100 projects valued at more than AED 100 billion, and nearly 60 completed developments. The release names five projects completed in 2026 so far (Binghatti Apex, Ghost, Ivory, Haven and Grove), with approximately 2,600 units handed over, and says eight further completions are expected by the end of the year. The release is on the developer’s site.

The investor-relations page repeats the portfolio figures in slightly different words, citing over 50 delivered developments, and the two pages are read here as printed. Neither page names this project among the completed or the expected completions. The developer’s investor-relations page lists branded projects with named partners, and these are shown above under the developer’s own titles.

Frequently asked questions

What is Binghatti Aquarise Dubai and where is it?

It is a residential and retail tower project in Business Bay, Dubai, on the Dubai Water Canal according to the developer’s FAQ. The developer’s Project Facts sheet counts 1,598 residential units and 28 ground-floor retail units. The developer prints no street address or plot number, so the location is shown in section 7 as the pages describe it.

What is the starting price of Binghatti Aquarise Dubai in dollars?

The developer prints "FROM 999,999" on its page and "Starting AED 999,999" on its project list, which is about USD 272,294 at the pegged rate of 3.6725. The unit type is not stated. Property Finder prints AED 1,915,000 for a one-bedroom, Huspy AED 1.34 million and Projects Scout AED 2,000,000, so the figure depends on the source.

When will Binghatti Aquarise Dubai be handed over?

The sources disagree. The developer’s FAQ says the first quarter of 2027. Property Finder and Projects Scout print 30 October 2027, Huspy and Inside Realty the second quarter of 2027, and the tracker expects October 2026. Only the date in the sale agreement binds the seller, so it is the one to have in writing.

Is the project available or sold out?

The developer’s page labels it "Available" and Property Finder tags it "Sold out", while the same Property Finder data carries a stock field reading "available". Each label describes its own page. The units for sale on a given day are confirmed with the seller in writing, with the unit number.

How many units are there in the project?

The developer’s facts sheet prints 688 studios, 736 one-bedroom, 152 two-bedroom, 10 three-bedroom and 12 four-bedroom units, which add to 1,598, plus 28 retail units. The tracker prints 1,602, and four famproperties building pages add to 1,558 with their commercial units. Section 4 sets out the differences.

Which payment plan applies?

The developer’s FAQ prints 20 percent on booking, 50 percent during construction and 30 percent on completion. Property Finder prints 10, 40 and 50, two brokers print 70 and 30, and Projects Scout prints 20, 20 and 60. No source ties a plan to a unit, so the schedule in the agreement, with its stages, is what counts.

Is Binghatti Aquarise Dubai freehold, and can foreigners buy there?

Property Finder prints Freehold, and the developer’s page prints no tenure. The UAE government portal says foreign ownership in Dubai is permitted in areas designated as freehold. The Land Department confirms the status of a plot, and the agreement should state the tenure.

What does the DLD registration fee come to?

The DLD’s investor guide gives 4 percent of the purchase price, paid in equal parts by seller and purchaser, and a DLD release says it is paid under the buyer-seller agreement. On AED 999,999 it is about AED 40,000. The agreement sets who pays, and further fees are on the DLD’s pages.

Does buying here lead to a residence visa?

No claim is made. The DLD service for real estate investors sets a threshold of AED 2,000,000 for a renewable permit, and the ICP page says off-plan units count when bought from an approved company. The developer’s AED 999,999 figure is below that line, and the authority decides eligibility on the date of application.

What should be in writing before a reservation is paid?

The unit number and area, the handover date, the schedule of payments tied to construction stages, the escrow account name and bank, the DLD project number, the fees and who pays them, the service-charge estimate and the finish. Section 9 gives the full list of thirteen items.
