James Paul Booth
The agent's view
“Alba Tower is off-plan, due in 2028, so no owner has sold a completed home here yet. Buyers took 14 homes here in the 12 months to 26 Oct 2026, at about AED 1,680 per sq ft. Sales are slow. Ask for a better payment plan before you sign, and compare the price with a completed tower next door.”

Construction progress: not found

We found no public progress record for this tower. Ask the developer for the latest inspection report from the Land Department.

Payment plan: not found

We checked the pages we hold for this tower and found no payment plan that passed our checks. We do not guess one. Ask the developer for the current plan.

Resale and off-plan prices by bedroom

Resale = a completed home sold on. Off-plan = a home sold before the tower is complete, by the developer or by an earlier buyer (a Land Department "delayed sell"). The two are different markets, so we never mix them in one price. Sold = median price of sales in the 12 months to 26 Oct 2026. Asking and rent = live listings on 7 Oct 2026. Counts are in brackets. A sold median needs 10 sales, an advert median 3 adverts.

TypeOff-plan: soldOff-plan: per sq ftMedian asking
1-bed– (under 10)–– (2)

Sold prices: Land Department sale records to 26 Oct 2026, BUY DUBAI facts cube. Asking and rent are adverts, not contracts.

Sales we leave out of every median, count and chart (2 of 39 here): bulk transfers, meaning 5 or more completed homes sold within two days at prices per sq ft within 25% of each other (0); a sale at exactly the same price as that unit's sale before (0); a size more than 1.6 times the usual size for the recorded type, or a "studio" above 750 sq ft (2). They stay in the list below with a label.

Too few off-plan sales to state a yearly change

Median AED 1,680 per sq ft in the 12 months to 26 Oct 2026 (14 off-plan sales). A yearly change needs at least 30 sales in each of the two 12-month periods.

Too few quarters with sales to draw a chart.

Bars: median AED per sq ft by quarter. Blue line and blue numbers under the bars: number of sales in the quarter. Last 16 quarters at most; Land Department records, quarters with 10 or more sales. Off-plan sales are 100% of sales in the last 12 months, so the bars can mix launch and resale prices.

Every sale since 2025: 39 sales of 39 units

Newest first. Each sale is marked Resale or Off-plan. The last column shows the change from the same unit's sale before.

Mortgage: what Alba Tower costs a month

The tower is off-plan. A bank can lend at most 50% of the price of an off-plan home, and most buyers use the loan for the payment at handover. The rate starts at 3.99%, the most common 3-year fixed rate in two bank comparison lists dated 5 October 2026. Fixed rates in those lists run from 3.75% to 4.69%. Three-month EIBOR, the base for variable rates, was 4.19% on 9 Oct 2026.

The direction of each landmark from Alba Tower, and the towers within 150 m that can stand in the way. What a home really sees depends on its floor and its side of the building. We do not have the unit positions for this tower yet, so we cannot tell you the view of one unit.

No resident reviews: the tower is not built

Nobody lives in Alba Tower yet, so there is nothing a resident can tell you. Reviews you see elsewhere under this name are about the sales office, the developer or another building. What we can show is below: what the developer and the documents say about the project. We add resident reviews after handover.

The project: what the developer and the documents say

The tower is not complete, so these are plans and claims, not facts you can check on site. Each one names its source.

Apartments

Unit mix
72 units: 40 one-bedroom and 32 two-bedroom (Palmera, Excel Properties and Provident guides). Propsearch says only 'an estimated 72 units' in one- and two-bedroom layouts.

Sources for figures not in the developer fact file:

  • Completed: Planned handover year from propsearch.ae, read 14 Oct 2026: https://propsearch.ae/dubai/alba-tower

Amenities: swimming pool, gymnasium, kids' play area, retail outlets, shaded seating areas, landscaped gardens, BBQ areas, covered/basement parking, security and CCTV, central A/C

Where sources disagree

  • Developer: Century Seven Properties (Propsearch, Binayah) versus Reportage Properties (Palmera, Excel Properties, Provident). Some pages name both the same building; treated as a conflict.
  • Completion: Q4 2027 (Palmera, Excel Properties, Provident) versus June 2028 (Propsearch).
  • Metro distance: 10 minutes (Provident) versus 18 minutes (Excel Properties).
  • Excel Properties lists a sauna, spa and cinema; other guides do not.
  • The Propsearch listing for the 11 Sep 2026 sale shows a '81k' headline price but a transaction price of AED 810,000; treated as a display error and not used.

Building

Floors, apartments and completion year
Ground + 2 podium levels + 8 residential floors + roof (12 storeys per Propsearch, plus 2 basement levels), 72 apartments. Completion year is disputed: Propsearch says June 2028, while the Palmera, Excel Properties and Provident guides say Q4 2027. Our unit codes reach floor 8, which fits 8 residential floors.

Shops in the building
Guides say retail outlets or shopping pavilions are planned on the ground levels. Not yet built, so they cannot be confirmed in use.

Amenities list
Guides list a swimming pool, gym, kids' play area, retail outlets, shaded seating, landscaped gardens, BBQ areas, covered parking and security with CCTV. Excel Properties also lists a sauna and spa and a cinema, which other guides do not mention.

Developer

Who is the developer?
Sources disagree. Propsearch, Binayah and another source name Century Seven Properties (Century 7). Palmera, Excel Properties and Provident name Reportage Properties. Not settled by the material.
Reported by a site · propsearch.ae, live adverts: community guide, palmera.realestate, excelproperties.ae, providentestate.com, web search results
Finishes
Sales guides describe fully tiled bathrooms, double-glazed windows, modern kitchen cabinets, and Italian-style design. This is marketing text, not resident feedback.
Reported by a site · propsearch.ae, live adverts: community guide, palmera.realestate
Delivery record (on time or late)
Not found. The building is not yet delivered. Handover is quoted as Q4 2027 by some guides and June 2028 by Propsearch, and Propsearch lists it as under development.

Around

Metro and public transport
Sources conflict on metro time: Provident says 10 minutes to Dubai Metro, and Excel Properties says 18 minutes; the mode of travel is not stated. Palmera says the area is close to World Trade Centre and Emirates Towers metro stations on the Red Line, with no distance given.

Ask for a report on your unit: its sales history, the same type's sales in the last 12 months and the homes for sale against it. A licensed partner agent, named on the report with the registration number, sends it. BUY DUBAI is not a broker and takes no part in the sale.

Method, sources and what we did not find

  • Sales: unit-level Dubai Land Department sale records, 16 Feb 2025 to 22 Oct 2026, checked by year against Dubai Land Department open data. Our unit list does not hold every sale, so some sales are missing.
  • Listings: one snapshot, 7 Oct 2026. Asking prices and asking rents.
  • Residents and building facts: Google Maps reviews and guide pages (excelproperties.ae, live adverts: community guide, palmera.realestate, propsearch.ae, providentestate.com), read by an AI model on 27 Oct 2026 with a fixed question list. A script checks that each answer names its source.
  • Nobody visited the tower. Every fact is from a document, a map or a resident's review.
  • Checked, not found for this tower: a Google Maps place, resident reviews, a floor plan document, unit positions on a floor, the side and view of each unit, the developer, a licensed photo.
