Island Living By Condor

Island Living By Condor is priced on request — no public per-unit AED figure or per-square-foot rate has been disclosed, which immediately limits how far a buyer can advance due diligence without direct developer contact. To size the likely entry point, Condor's three other active projects provide the most grounded benchmarks. Golf Links 18 in Dubai Sports City starts from AED 660K for studios at approximately AED 18,550 per square metre and has 255 tracked DLD transactions — the developer's highest-volume launch by far. Sonate Residences in JVT starts from AED 1.34M for one-bedroom units at AED 14,961 to AED 17,089 per square metre, with two-bedroom units running from AED 1.87M to AED 2.2M across 111 and 112 square metre floor plates. Condor Concept 7 in JVC carries the developer's steepest premium at AED 17,969 to AED 23,979 per square metre, with one-bedroom units from AED 1.15M and two-bedroom units from AED 2.28M. A project marketed as island or waterfront living should price at or above the JVC ceiling — if the disclosed rate falls below AED 17,969 per square metre it will need strong locational justification. Handover is confirmed for Q1 2027, and buyers comparing off-plan commitment against ready inventory in this price band should work through the Off-Plan vs Ready analysis before requesting a price sheet from Condor.

Dubai's waterfront and island-adjacent off-plan segment has sustained demand-side pressure since 2022, with coastal product commanding documented premiums of 15% to 25% above equivalent mid-community stock when measured on a per-square-foot basis. The Q1 2027 handover window places Island Living By Condor in a cohort of launches targeting the same delivery quarter across Dubai, which means buyers are competing for a finite pool of projects with sub-three-year timelines at launch. That compressed window limits capital appreciation runway compared to projects targeting 2028 or 2029, but it also reduces exposure to extended market cycle risk and shortens the period during which construction delays can compound. Dubai Land Department transfer fees of 4% apply on any resale after handover — a cost buyers must model into their exit strategy when comparing gross and net yield projections. Buyers intending to use Island Living By Condor to qualify for UAE residency visa purposes should confirm the current minimum qualifying investment threshold with a UAE-registered legal adviser before exchange, as the regulatory threshold is subject to change. The buying guide covers the full legal and procedural checklist for off-plan acquisition in Dubai, including escrow verification steps that are essential for any Condor project given the Sonate Residences schedule slippage.

Condor Concept 7 in JVC is the most analytically useful reference point in the Condor portfolio. With 173 tracked DLD transactions and 55 rent signals attached — the highest rental data density of any Condor project — Concept 7 provides the clearest available yield proxy for a Condor mid-market build. One-bedroom units at 64 to 69 square metres transacted from AED 1.15M; two-bedroom units at 105 to 106 square metres from AED 2.28M. Buyers should request gross yield figures from the Concept 7 rental comps and model them against Island Living's unit sizes once the price schedule is released. Golf Links 18 in Dubai Sports City is Condor's most transacted active project at 255 recorded sales and is tracking on schedule for Q2 2026 completion. Its studio-focused, AED 660K entry point serves a different buyer profile than Island Living, but the on-schedule delivery record is directly relevant evidence for evaluating Condor's construction discipline. Sonate Residences in JVT is the critical risk benchmark. It shares Island Living By Condor's Q1 2027 target and is currently 27.59% behind its construction programme, with 165 tracked transactions across a one-bedroom and two-bedroom unit mix. Buyers must ask Condor for a Sonate progress update alongside an Island Living construction milestone report — the two projects' schedules should be treated as correlated risk, not independent outcomes.

Eight projects sit within Island Living By Condor's linked comparison set, spanning developer risk profiles from boutique to institutional. Jumeirah Asora Bay by Meraas is the benchmark for how an established government-linked developer prices genuine coastal access in Dubai. Starting from AED 350M and targeting Q1 2029, it operates in a categorically different budget tier — but with only 13.15% schedule slippage across 26 tracked DLD transactions, it demonstrates what institutional delivery discipline looks like at the ultra-luxury end. Buyers who weight developer credibility heavily in their decision criteria will find the Meraas track record difficult for Condor to match. Tomorrow Gem Harbor has no confirmed handover date and no public pricing in the current market data, placing it in the same disclosure gap as Island Living By Condor. A direct comparison between the two is not meaningful until both release price schedules. Samana Business Park 2 2 targets Q4 2028 with pricing on request, offering a longer delivery runway and more time for capital appreciation to accrue — but the absence of pricing makes comparative yield modelling impossible at this stage. For buyers who want concrete data before committing to any of these launches, Condor Concept 7 and Golf Links 18 remain the most transaction-rich options available with confirmed pricing. The full active pipeline is accessible through Dubai off-plan projects. The strongest next step for a buyer who has read the comparative data is to map Island Living By Condor's price schedule — once disclosed — against Concept 7's per-square-metre rate and Sonate's rental comps, then evaluate whether the waterfront positioning produces a yield premium that justifies the execution risk.
