How I plan to pay3 developer plans offered

Off-plan mortgages are arranged at handover, against the completed home.

The service charge starts at handover, not at purchase, and the first year is usually pro-rated from the day you collect the keys. In Dubai the budget behind it is filed with the Mollak system each year, so the rate is reviewed once the building is occupied and can move from the launch figure.

Good to know

Straight answers from the developer's published terms, checked 8 Oct 2026.

What is the payment plan for The Archive?

+

Payment Plan 50/50: 20% on booking, 30% during construction and 50% on handover. 3 payment plans are offered in total.

How much is the booking amount for The Archive?

+

20% of the purchase price falls due on booking — from AED 137,563 on the lowest-priced home. A bank or a broker may call the same figure the reservation deposit or the down payment; it is one and the same first instalment, and it is paid to the developer rather than to us.

When does The Archive hand over?

+

Handover is scheduled for Q3 2028. Construction is 2.96% complete.

What do homes in The Archive cost?

+

Homes currently available start from AED 687,816 and range up to AED 1,627,856 for Studio – 2 bed homes. These are the prices of the homes released for sale through our live feed today, not the launch prices — earlier and cheaper releases may have sold out.

How much does each bedroom size cost at The Archive?

+

Published starting prices by layout are Studio from AED 666,000; 1 bed from AED 979,000; 2 bed from AED 1,550,000; 3 bed from AED 1,900,000. Those are the entry price for each size — floor, view and the exact layout move the figure, and the current price list carries the price of every remaining unit.

Is there a price list for The Archive?

+

Yes. Ask for it on this page and the developer’s own price list is emailed to you — unit number, floor, exact size, price and price per square foot for every home still available. 10 homes were unsold at the last check on 8 Oct 2026.

Who is the developer of The Archive?

+

The Archive is developed by Imtiaz Development in Dubailand Residence Complex · Dubai · United Arab Emirates.

What is the service charge at The Archive?

+

The published service charge at The Archive is 16 AED/sqft, billed once a year. On the smallest published layout, 382 sqft, that is roughly AED 6,112 a year. It starts at handover and the first year is usually pro-rated from the day you collect the keys. In Dubai the annual budget behind the charge is filed with the Mollak system, so the figure is reviewed each year once the building is occupied. Checked 8 Oct 2026.

Is my money protected when buying off-plan at The Archive?

+

In the UAE an off-plan instalment is paid into the project’s escrow account rather than to the developer directly, and is released against construction progress the regulator has verified. No escrow account number has been published to us for The Archive, which is not the same as there being none — an advisor can confirm the account with Imtiaz Development before you pay anything.
