Forest City Tower: Getting In Two Months Before Handover
Al Helal Al Zahaby Real Estate is delivering Forest City Tower in Majan, a residential community within Dubai's Dubailand corridor. Construction started in October 2024, and the building completes in December 2026. For a buyer looking at off-plan property, that timeline matters. Handover is roughly two months away, which removes most of the construction-phase risk from the purchase. The project offers apartments and penthouses across a wide price range, in a location that trades central convenience for quieter suburban living.
Majan: Where This Sits in Dubai
Majan connects to Emirates Road (E611) and Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311), putting Downtown Dubai and Dubai International Airport within 25 to 35 minutes in light traffic. The district sits inland, away from the coastal premium of areas like Dubai Marina, and it has a quieter, more suburban character than many parts of the city.
The area is still developing. Residents here are more car-dependent than in denser, more established Dubai communities. Buyers prioritizing living space and value over walkability to commercial hubs will find Majan a practical base. Buyers who prefer a central, fully built-up urban environment will find it less suitable.
Getting In for 10%
A 10% down payment secures the unit. Construction-phase payments cover 50%, and 40% falls due at handover.
| Stage | Amount |
|---|---|
| Down payment | 10% |
| During construction | 50% |
| Handover | 40% |
The 10% entry keeps the initial outlay low. With handover two months away, the construction instalments are largely settled. What a buyer committing today is really taking on is the 40% at handover: that amount needs to be funded by December 2026. The plan carries no post-handover component, so the full purchase price closes at that point.
What AED 530K to AED 5.2M Buys You Here
The price range runs from AED 530,000 to AED 5,200,000. That is nearly a tenfold spread, and it reflects two distinct product tiers in one building: the apartment units at the base of the range, and the penthouses at the top.
At the lower end, apartments appeal to investors targeting rental yield and first-time buyers looking for a functional, managed unit at an accessible entry price. At the upper end, penthouses occupy the building's flagship tier at AED 5,200,000. The gap between the two buyer profiles is wide. This is not a boutique single-product building; it covers both accessible and premium price points under the same address in Majan.
Apartments and Penthouses
Forest City Tower offers apartments and penthouses. These serve entirely different buyers. Apartment buyers want a compact, well-managed unit at a clear price point, and the entry from AED 530,000 keeps the building accessible to first-time buyers and smaller investors. Penthouse buyers want the top floor, the best position in the building, and the premium product the project offers. The two groups rarely compete for the same unit.
What the Building Provides
| Category | Amenities |
|---|---|
| Wellness | Indoor Swimming Pool, Gymnasium |
| Outdoor | Landscaped Gardens, Children's Play Area |
| Services | Restaurants, CCTV Security |
The indoor pool matters in Dubai's climate. Summer heat makes outdoor pools impractical for several months each year, and an indoor facility runs year-round. The on-site restaurants allow residents to handle daily meals without leaving the building, which carries more practical value in a car-dependent location like Majan than it would in a central district with nearby dining options.
The gym, children's play area, and restaurant access together signal a mixed resident base: working professionals who want fitness and convenience, and families who value children's facilities and daily services within the complex. The amenity count is modest at six items, but the selection is practical and well-matched to the building's price range.
