Binghatti Skyhall Dubai: Business Bay Studios and 1BR (2026)

Binghatti Skyhall Dubai is a single tower of studios, one-bedroom flats and ground-level shops in Business Bay, Dubai, which Binghatti Developers lists on its project page as available “from” AED 985,000 (about USD 268,210, at the pegged rate of 3.6725 per USD) on 14 November 2026.

This guide to Binghatti Skyhall Dubai reads the developer’s project page and project list, its project-facts sheet and digital brochure, and four third-party pages (Property Finder, a handover tracker that quotes the Dubai Land Department registry, Bayut and an agency page), all as they stood on 14 November 2026. The sources disagree about the handover date, whether units are available, the number of units and the starting price, so each figure appears with its source and none is chosen over another.

The guide also sets out the fifteen floor-plan layouts, the Dubai rules for an off-plan buyer with an official source for each, and a list of what to obtain in writing before reserving a unit.

Overview of Binghatti Skyhall Dubai

The binghatti.com project page names the building Binghatti Skyhall, places it in Business Bay and marks it Available, with the unit types Studio and 1 BR and the line “FROM 985,000”. The same figure appears on the developer’s project list as “Starting AED 985,000”. The page text describes 717 residences “ranging from studios to spacious one bedroom apartments” and says the building is in the heart of Business Bay.

The developer’s project-facts sheet gives the property type as residential and retail, the plot as 5,704.66 m² (61,404.45 sq ft), and the building as three basements, a ground floor, three podium levels, 29 residential floors, one mechanical floor and a roof. It lists 489 studios and 228 one-bedroom units, 717 residential units in all, plus 11 shops. The page FAQ says the same counts and adds “approximately 34 floors in total, including podium and mechanical levels”.

Three further developer statements matter for a buyer. The FAQ says the expected completion date is Quarter 3, 2026, the standard payment plan is 20 percent on booking, 50 percent during construction and 30 percent on completion, and the apartments come semi-furnished. The page and the sheet print no street address, no plot number and no construction percentage. The page does not say whether the tenure is freehold; Property Finder does.

Other sources print other figures. Property Finder’s page for the project is tagged “Sold out” and lists an expected completion of 28 February 2027, while the developer’s page says Available and Q3 2026. The tables below keep those readings side by side. Nothing in this guide is a statement that a particular unit can be bought today or at a particular price; that is settled in the sale and purchase agreement.

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

A single off-plan tower is described by the developer, by listing sites and by trackers of the public registry, and their descriptions are written at different times for different purposes. For Binghatti Skyhall the developer’s own page is the primary source, and the other pages fill the gaps it leaves. The tables here keep every figure with its source, because the differences are real and no source says which one is current.

The first table sets out status, launch and handover. The handover tracker published by Real Estate Club Dubai says it follows the Dubai Land Department project registry; it gives a project number, a registered project value, a registry estimate of August 2026 and a construction reading of 31 percent, unchanged across readings between 26 October and 12 November 2026. The developer’s own page prints no percentage.

As arithmetic only: 14 November 2026 falls after 30 September 2026 and after August 2026, before 31 December 2026 (47 days later) and before 28 February 2027 (106 days later). From the construction start of 2 February 2025 that Property Finder prints, 30 September 2026 is about 20 months and 28 February 2027 is about 26 months. These are spans between printed dates, not a forecast, and the date that binds is the one in the contract.

The second table covers units and floors. The developer’s own figures are consistent across its page and facts sheet; the registry reading differs by the 11 shops.

The registry figure of 728 equals 717 plus 11, which suggests it counts the shops with the flats; that is an inference from the arithmetic and neither source says so. The developer’s brochure prints the residential count and the shop count separately, so this guide uses 717 flats and 11 shops and shows 728 as the registry’s figure.

The basement count is a small difference of wording. The developer’s string says three basements, the tracker’s prose says two, and Bayut speaks of three podium levels of parking, which is a different part of the building. The contract and the approved drawings settle it.

Fifteen layouts: suite, balcony and total area

The distinctive feature of Binghatti Skyhall in the developer’s documents is how much of each studio plan is balcony. The brochure prints twelve studio layouts and three one-bedroom layouts, each with a suite area, a balcony area and a total unit area. The one-bedroom plans carry balconies of 22 to 31 m², and in the largest studios the balcony is more than 40 percent of the printed total. Because the price of a unit is quoted against a total, the split matters.

The developer’s notes under the plans say that suite area is measured to the centre line of party walls and the outside face of exterior walls, balcony area to the outer face of the enclosing guard, that all dimensions are approximate and measured at a typical floor, and that the sale and purchase agreement states the actual size of each unit. The shares in the last column are calculated from the printed areas.

Reading the table, the suite areas are narrow: from 27.71 to 31.61 m² (298 to 340 sq ft), a spread of 3.90 m². The total areas are wide: from 36.72 to 54.16 m² (395 to 583 sq ft), a spread of 17.44 m². In other words, almost all of the difference between the smallest and the largest studio is balcony. The three layouts with the largest balconies (Types 8, 10 and 11) all print balconies above 17 m².

Two points of method. The brochure’s text layer places Type 7 and Type 8 in adjacent columns and the pairing of areas is shown here in the order extracted. Types 2 and 6 print the same areas, so the twelve studio layouts show eleven distinct total areas. The ranges in this guide, 395 to 583 sq ft for studios, therefore come from the developer’s plans, and they differ from the larger ranges printed elsewhere (see below).

The one-bedroom Type 1 prints a suite of 60.98 m² and a balcony of 31.41 m², which add up to 92.39 m², while its printed total is 92.30 m²; the gap is 0.09 m² and the brochure does not explain it. The one-bedroom plans also print room sizes (for example a master bedroom of 15 or 16 m² and a living and dining area of 12 to 18 m²). These are the developer’s approximate figures and are not repeated per layout here.

Property Finder prints different size bands. Its page shows studios from 395 to 834 sq ft and one-bedroom units from 825 to 995 sq ft, and it lists a two-bedroom type with a size of zero; the developer’s brochure prints no unit larger than 583 sq ft among studios and no two-bedroom plan. The tracker and Insiderealty print an overall range from about 396 to 1,032 sq ft (96 m²). The brochure’s largest one-bedroom total is 994 sq ft, so those larger figures are not found in the developer’s documents.

The brochure’s floor-plan sheets are labelled 1st floor, 2nd floor and “3rd to 29th floor typical”. Counting the labels gives 1 + 1 + 27 = 29 residential floors, which matches the developer’s “29 Residential Floors”.

The sheet text also labels a ladies’ and gentlemen’s gym and a pool deck with an adult pool and a kids’ pool, and plan text labels lifts numbered 1 to 8. The developer prints no number of units per floor or per layout, so how the 489 studios divide among the twelve studio types is not stated.

What the finish and the amenities list say

The developer’s FAQ says Binghatti Skyhall “comes semi-furnished” and does not list what is included. The brochure’s interiors pages show renders of a bedroom and a studio, and a page headed with a palette of “subtle hues and rich textures”, but no specification of kitchen fittings, appliances, air conditioning or wardrobes. The finish schedule for a unit is therefore a contract item.

The amenities named in the facts sheet are an adult pool, a kids’ pool, a kids’ play area, a jogging path, resort-style living and a seating area. The project page shows a tile headed “workouts with outdoor views”, and the gallery includes a render of a gym.

Bayut lists the same pools, jogging path, play area and landscaped seating and says some other facilities “may” be provided; that wording is not a confirmation and those items are left out here, as are the facilities that appear only in the description text on Property Finder, which does not match the developer’s documents.

Prices by source and date, in AED and USD

The developer prints one price for Binghatti Skyhall Dubai: “FROM 985,000” on the project page and “Starting AED 985,000” on the project list, both read on 14 November 2026. The card line beside it reads “STUDIO | 1 BR” and the page does not say which type the figure belongs to. The USD figures in this guide are arithmetic at the pegged rate of 3.6725 per USD, so AED 985,000 is about USD 268,210.

The developer prints no one-bedroom price. Property Finder, Insiderealty and the tracker print figures that differ from each other by hundreds of thousands of dirhams, and they are listing-site and agency indications, not a price list. A “from” price is the minimum shown for the cheapest unit; it does not say what a given unit costs.

The spread for the entry figure is AED 319,000, the arithmetic gap between the developer’s 985,000 and Property Finder’s studio figure of 1,304,000. The sources do not say why they differ. Property Finder’s figure is the one its page labels as the starting price for a studio.

Sale records shown by Property Finder

Property Finder’s page includes a “sold history” box, powered by a data supplier, with two rows. They are reproduced as printed. They are records of individual transactions, shown without the seller or the stage of registration, and they are not price lists for other units.

The same page says “Developer properties are out of stock” and invites readers to see 33 resale listings. The developer’s page, in contrast, shows the project as Available. Both are statements by the sites that make them. Whether a given unit can be bought from the developer, and not only on the resale market, is a question to put to the developer with a unit number. Dubai’s rule for resales before the title deed exists is covered in section 7.

Some other web snippets quote AED 995,460 or AED 1,039,000 as entry prices for the building. They were not verified on a page of their own, so they are not used.

The 20/50/30 payment plan in dirhams

The developer’s FAQ describes “the standard payment plan structure”: 20 percent on booking, 50 percent during construction and 30 percent on completion. Bayut prints the same split, with the 30 percent due on handover in Q3 2026. Property Finder prints 20 percent as the down payment, 50 percent during construction and 30 percent on handover, and Insiderealty prints “20% on booking, 50% during construction and 30% upon handover”. No source read for this guide prints a post-handover instalment period.

A search snippet seen while preparing the guide mentioned a split of 10 percent down and 60 percent during construction. The page behind it could not be opened and it is not treated as a printed plan.

To see what the percentages mean in dirhams, the next table applies the printed split to the developer’s from price of AED 985,000. It is arithmetic on a printed figure, not an offer: the schedule for any unit is whatever its sale agreement says, and the “construction” share is normally split into stages that the agreement names.

The registration fee in the last row is a separate amount from the three instalments and is based on the contract value of the unit, so the figure for any unit depends on its price. The department’s statement says the fee is paid by agreement between seller and buyer, which the sale agreement should record.

Payments and construction stage

The Dubai Land Department’s frequently asked questions state that the schedule of payments follows completion rates. When the developer sends a payment request, the buyer has the right to know the current completion percentage through a letter from the project consultant approved by the department. Otherwise the buyer is not obliged to pay unless it is confirmed that the project has reached the stage or percentage in the agreed schedule.

The same page says a buyer can obtain a report of the completion percentage prepared by the technical auditor of the Real Estate Regulatory Agency, after paying the auditor’s fee, which it states as AED 15,000 for the unit.

It adds that the agency reviews listed projects periodically and that a technical report expires after three months. A construction reading of 31 percent appears only in the tracker’s quotation of the registry; a buyer who wants the current figure can ask for the consultant’s letter or use the department’s project status service.

Location of Binghatti Skyhall Dubai in Business Bay

The developer places Binghatti Skyhall in Business Bay and prints no sub-area, plot or street. Its FAQ calls the site “the heart of Business Bay” with direct access to Sheikh Zayed Road, Al Khail Road and nearby metro stations, and close to the Dubai Mall and Burj Khalifa, with Downtown Dubai, the Dubai International Financial Centre and Dubai International Airport “minutes away”. It gives no distances or times.

Wikipedia’s entry for Business Bay describes it as a central business district south of Downtown Dubai, built along an extension of Dubai Creek, with a total area of 64,000,000 sq ft (5,900,000 m²) and upwards of 240 planned buildings, and says the infrastructure was completed in 2008. Property Finder’s community text says Business Bay “features 394 buildings”. The two figures are different kinds of statement, a plan and a count, and neither is a fact about this tower.

Property Finder’s page for the project carries a location object with the coordinates 25.1810851, 55.2760375, typed as a tower. They are not published by the developer and are not checked against the plot here. For orientation only, Wikipedia’s infobox for Business Bay gives 25.18366, 55.26664; the straight-line distance between the two points is about 1 km, calculated from the coordinates. The developer’s own map embed searches for the project name and gives no coordinates.

Drive times to named places come from two agency-style sources and do not agree. Insiderealty prints 5 minutes to the Burj Khalifa, the Dubai Mall and Dubai Opera, 7 minutes to Dubai Design District and the DIFC, and a 20-minute drive to the airport. Property Finder’s page prints 15 minutes to the Burj Khalifa and Downtown Dubai and 25 minutes to the airport. Property Finder’s description text also contains items that match no developer document, so its times are shown as printed and not endorsed.

None of the times says how it is travelled or at what hour, and the sources do not say from which point of the building they start. The Roads and Transport Authority’s metro map lists a Red Line station named Business Bay (code R26), next to a station for Burj Khalifa and the Dubai Mall in the list. The developer’s page says “nearby metro stations” without naming one, so a walking route from the actual tower is worth timing in person once the plot is identified.

What the sources agree on is the district type: a dense commercial and residential area next to the Sheikh Zayed Road corridor. What they leave open is the exact plot and the immediate surroundings of the tower, which matter for views and noise. A buyer can ask for the plot number in writing and look the project up on the department’s tools described below.

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

The table below sets out general Dubai rules that apply to an off-plan buyer, each next to the authority that publishes it. They were read again on 14 November 2026. None of them is a statement about the sale terms of a particular unit in Binghatti Skyhall, and the authorities’ own pages are the reference if a rule has changed. The guides on buying off-plan in Dubai and on whether foreigners can buy apartments in Dubai cover the same ground in general terms.

What the rules mean for this project

Four points connect the table to Binghatti Skyhall. First, the tracker quotes the registry for a project number, 3504, and for the registered developer, Binghatti Developers Fze; the developer’s own pages print neither. A buyer can ask the developer to confirm the number and then look the project up on the department’s tool.

Second, no source read for this guide names the escrow bank or the escrow account for the building. Third, the department’s pages used here do not list which Dubai areas are freehold; Property Finder prints freehold for the project, and the tenure belongs in the contract. The guide to freehold and leasehold in Dubai defines both terms.

Fourth, the VAT row concerns residential units; the 11 shops are commercial units, for which the Federal Tax Authority’s pages are the place to check. On taxes and loans that the table leaves aside, the guides on property tax in Dubai and the mortgage guide for foreign buyers are the starting points; no property tax or housing-fee figure is stated here because none was verified on an official page today.

The Golden Visa rule and this project

The Dubai Land Department’s service page for the Golden Visa for property owners allows an applicant who owns property whose purchase value is equal to or more than AED 2 million at the time of purchase to apply for a 10-year renewable residence permit. The property must be wholly owned by the applicant, one or more properties counting. A mortgaged property needs a bank letter showing the amount paid, and the page lists availability of an e-certificate of title among the requirements.

The u.ae government portal lists the real estate category with a minimum capital of AED 2 million and a duration of 5 years. The two official pages differ on duration, and the guide to the Dubai Golden Visa covers the route in more detail.

Comparing printed prices with the threshold is arithmetic only: the developer’s from price of AED 985,000 is below AED 2,000,000, the one-bedroom indications of AED 1,800,000 to 1,850,000 are below it, and the 2,256,000 row in Property Finder’s sold history is above it. No residence eligibility is claimed here for any unit. How an off-plan purchase before the title deed exists is treated is a question for the authority, in writing.

What to ask for in writing before reserving

Because the developer’s public pages leave out the contracting entity, the escrow account, a construction percentage and the price of most unit types, the sale documents carry more weight than usual for Binghatti Skyhall Dubai. The list below covers the items a buyer would normally request before paying any reservation amount. It lists documents to request and does not say whether anyone should buy.

1. The sale and purchase agreement draft, showing the unit number, floor, type (which of the twelve studio or three one-bedroom layouts) and the area on which the price is based, with a statement of whether the balcony is counted.
2. The price for that exact unit in AED, any reservation or booking amount, and the date by which the agreement must be signed.
3. The handover date as written in the contract, the definition of handover, and the contract’s wording if the date changes.
4. The payment schedule by construction stage or by date, with each instalment in AED for the unit, and how the 30 percent on completion is triggered.
5. The name of the project’s escrow account, the bank that holds it, and payment instructions that point to that account.
6. The Dubai Land Department project number, so the project can be looked up on the Project Status service, and the current completion percentage from the project consultant.
7. The registration fee that applies, who pays it, when it falls due, and whether the Oqood step is handled by the developer.
8. An estimate of the annual service charge for the unit, the name of the management company, and how the charge is invoiced.
9. The finish schedule for the semi-furnished unit: what is supplied in the kitchen, bathrooms and bedroom, which appliances, air conditioning and wardrobes are included, and which items the brochure renders show only as illustration.
10. Whether parking and storage are included, what they cost and how they are allocated.
11. The full legal name and registration details of the entity that contracts with the buyer, and who signs on its behalf.
12. The conditions for assigning or reselling the unit before registration, with the cost and process of the developer’s no-objection certificate.
13. The VAT treatment of the unit, confirmed in writing by the developer or by an adviser.
14. Any statement on residence rights tied to the unit, obtained from the authority itself rather than from a seller.

If a listing site shows a plan, a handover date or a facility that the developer’s documents do not, the buyer can ask the seller to put it in the agreement. Only a figure written into the contract binds the parties; a figure on a listing site is an indication.

Binghatti Developers

The developer’s About page says the company was founded in 2008 by Dr. Hussain Binghatti and carries the name of his late father, Ghatti Bin Ghaeb. The group’s legal name is given as Binghatti Holding Limited, and the footer of the site shows a Sheikh Zayed Road address in Dubai. Four leadership roles are named on that page: founder, chairman, vice-chairman and chief executive officer. Press releases and brochures describe an integrated model in which design, development, construction and delivery are done in-house, and say the company began as a contractor.

Portfolio figures differ between documents and are shown as printed. The company’s results release of 12 November 2026 refers to a portfolio of more than 100 projects valued at more than AED 100 billion and nearly 60 completed developments. A second company page on results and portfolio mentions over 50 delivered developments and a pipeline of roughly 30 million sq ft of sellable area.

The release also says five projects were completed in 2026 so far (Binghatti Apex, Ghost, Ivory, Haven and Grove) with about 2,600 units handed over. All of these are the company’s own statements; no independent count was found. Binghatti’s project list shows current offerings, and the Dubai developers directory on this site lists other developers active in the city.

Other Binghatti projects and nearby Business Bay listings

Binghatti Skyhall is one tower on its own plot, and the developer’s pages link it to no other building. Several other Binghatti projects are filed by the developer under Business Bay too. Each is a separate building with its own status, handover and sources, and each has a guide of its own. The table lists them with the “Starting AED” figure on each card of binghatti.com/en/projects on 14 November 2026, converted at 3.6725. A card price is the developer’s lowest figure for the cheapest unit and is not an offer.

For Burj Binghatti Jacob & Co Residences and Bugatti Residences by Binghatti, the names are those the developer prints for the co-branded projects, and this guide states nothing further about the partners. Binghatti Skyblade, listed by the developer under Downtown Dubai, starts at AED 1,674,999 (about USD 456,092) on its card.

For comparison with listings from other developers in the same district, the guides on Bayz by Danube, The Quayside by Ellington and The Crestmark by Ellington are filed under Business Bay. Each of those guides carries its own sources and prices, and no guide here ranks one building above another.

More background is in the Dubai real estate market guide. The Dubai city page and the UAE country page list the other Dubai guides on this site.

Frequently asked questions

What is Binghatti Skyhall Dubai and where is it?

Binghatti Skyhall is a single tower in Business Bay, Dubai, by Binghatti Developers. The developer’s facts sheet lists 717 residential units, 489 studios and 228 one-bedroom flats, plus 11 shops, in a building of three basements, ground, three podium levels, 29 residential floors, a mechanical floor and a roof. The page prints no plot number or street, and the developer calls the finish semi-furnished.

Is Binghatti Skyhall Dubai available or sold out?

Both statements appear and neither is confirmed here as a fact. The developer’s page of 14 November 2026 marks the project Available, from AED 985,000. Property Finder tags it Sold out, says developer properties are out of stock and lists 33 resale properties. Whether a specific unit can be bought from the developer is a question for the developer, with the unit number.

When will Binghatti Skyhall Dubai be handed over?

The sources print different dates. The developer’s FAQ and Bayut print Q3 2026, the registry estimate quoted by a tracker is August 2026, Insiderealty prints Q4 2026, and Property Finder prints Q1 2027 with an expected completion of 28 February 2027. The sources do not explain the differences. The date that counts is the one in the sale and purchase agreement, with the definition of handover.

What does a flat in Binghatti Skyhall Dubai cost?

The developer prints only a from price of AED 985,000, about USD 268,210 at the pegged rate of 3.6725, and does not tie it to a unit type. Property Finder prints a studio starting price of AED 1,304,000 and a one-bedroom starting price of AED 1,800,000; Insiderealty prints AED 1,850,000 for a one-bedroom. These figures do not form a price list, and the price of a unit is whatever its contract says.

What payment plan applies?

The developer’s FAQ describes a standard plan of 20 percent on booking, 50 percent during construction and 30 percent on completion, and Bayut, Property Finder and Insiderealty print the same split. On the from price that is AED 197,000, AED 492,500 and AED 295,500. The Dubai Land Department says payments are tied to completion rates in the agreed schedule, so a buyer can ask for the stages in the contract.

How big are the units in Binghatti Skyhall?

The developer’s brochure prints total areas of 36.72 to 54.16 m² (395 to 583 sq ft) for the twelve studio layouts and 76.68 to 92.30 m² (825 to 994 sq ft) for the three one-bedroom layouts, including balconies. Studio suites are 27.71 to 31.61 m². Some listing pages print larger bands, which the brochure does not support, so the contract area for the unit is the one to check.

Is Binghatti Skyhall freehold, and can foreign nationals buy?

Property Finder prints freehold on its project page, while the developer’s page does not state tenure at all. The Dubai Land Department says property for non-UAE citizens may be registered in the areas specified by the Ruler of Dubai under Law No. 7 of 2006. The tenure and the registration route belong in the sale agreement, and the guide to freehold and leasehold explains the terms.

What fees apply when buying Binghatti Skyhall Dubai off-plan?

The Dubai Land Department states a registration fee of 4 percent of the property’s value in a news item of 31 May 2021, paid by agreement between seller and buyer. On AED 985,000 that is AED 39,400. Which fees apply, and who pays each one and when, is a matter for the contract. Service charges are separate and approved by the regulator.

Does buying in Binghatti Skyhall Dubai give a Golden Visa?

No eligibility is claimed here. The Dubai Land Department’s page gives a purchase value of AED 2 million or more at the time of purchase and lists an e-certificate of title among the requirements. The developer’s from price of AED 985,000 is below that figure. The authority is the one to say, in writing, how an off-plan purchase is treated.

How can a buyer check the escrow account and project number?

The Dubai Land Department’s Project Status service, also in the Dubai REST app, searches by project name or number. A tracker quotes project number 3504 from the registry for Binghatti Skyhall; the developer’s pages print no number and no escrow bank, so both are first items to request in writing, together with the name of the account trustee, before any payment is made.
