Off-plan upper mid-range canal-front residential tower by Dar Global, handover due in 2027, with 19 floors, 249 units and 233 off-plan sales

DG1, Business Bay · by Dar Global

An off-plan studio in DG1 sells for about AED 1.30m

Median of 11 off-plan sales in the 12 months to 14 Oct 2026. Last sale in the tower: 7 Oct 2026. 4 sales in this period that we judge not to be market sales are left out (see the note under the table).

The project
DG1 is a single residential tower in Business Bay, directly on Dubai Canal, designed by Gensler Architects. Its twisting profile of curved balcony bands gives the tower a sculptural shape. The tower holds one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments, each with a private balcony, and a Sky Garden on level 16. Units face Downtown Dubai and Burj Khalifa. Sources: brochure (PDF)
The developer says
DG1 is the first tower built around a new concept of living, offering an exclusive collection of luxury residences for visionaries living beyond borders. As given on propsearch.ae
The market says
26 off-plan sales in 12 months at AED 2,592 per sq ft (-3% in a year); a higher price than 73% of Business Bay towers; 2 sales in the last 90 days; 35 homes for sale now.

The same sales as in August: one home sold by the developer.

James Paul Booth
The agent's view
“DG1 is off-plan, due in 2027, so no owner has sold a completed home here yet. Buyers took 2 homes in the last 90 days at about AED 2,592 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: topped out

Status on the SkyscraperCity forum: topped out, 20 floors. Last post in the thread: 15 Aug 2026. The newest clearly relevant picture (post #23, 2025-03-11) shows a low concrete structure with black formwork and a crane behind a DG1 hoarding, only a few levels above the hoarding and well below the neighbouring towers.

Payment plan: 70/30

How the developer asks you to pay for a home bought off-plan. The amounts use AED 2,700,000, the median off-plan price in the last year.

The sources do not agree. We show each plan we found. Ask the developer for the plan in force today before you pay a booking fee.

Source text: “20% Down Payment 50% During Construction 30% On Handover” (binayah.com, metropolitan.realestate)

Read on 9 Oct 2026 from broker and developer pages. A script checked that each plan adds to 100% and that the words are in the source. Plans change: the sale contract is the only binding version. On top of the price you pay the 4% Land Department fee and the registration fees. Three brokers (Binayah, Metropolitan) show a 20% booking, 50% during construction, 30% on handover plan, while Equity Edge only mentions a 20/20/60 plan without step details; the Equity Edge extract also gives a much higher starting price (AED 3.3M), so confirm the current plan and handover date (Q2 2027 on another source vs Q4/Dec 2026 on Binayah, Metropolitan and Equity Edge) with the developer.

Resale and off-plan prices by bedroom

Resale = a completed home sold on. Off-plan = a home sold before the tower is complete, in most cases by the developer. The two are different markets, so we never mix them in one price. Sold = median price of sales in the 12 months to 14 Oct 2026. Asking and rent = live listings on 7 Oct 2026. Counts are in brackets. A median needs 5 sales or 3 listings.

TypeOff-plan: soldOff-plan: per sq ftMedian asking
StudioAED 1,304,160 (11)2,550AED 1,182,000 (3)

2-bedAED 4,156,200 (5)2,501AED 3,031,107 (19)
3-bedunder 5 (2)–– (2)

Rents are asking rents, not registered contracts. Yield = asking rent divided by the median resale price, before service charge.

Sales we leave out of every median, count and chart (8 of 233 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 (8); a size more than 1.6 times the usual size for the recorded type, or a "studio" above 750 sq ft (0). They stay in the list below with a label.

Off-plan price per sq ft fell 3% in a year

Median AED 2,592 per sq ft in the last 12 months (26 off-plan sales) against AED 2,677 in the 12 months before (32 off-plan sales).

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. Grey bars have fewer than 3 sales. Off-plan sales are 100% of all sales in this tower, so the early quarters show launch prices.

Every sale since 2023: 233 sales of 218 units

Newest first. Each sale is marked Resale or Off-plan. The last column shows the change from the same unit's sale before. 1 land or whole-building sale in the records for this address is not shown: it is not a home.

Adverts: one reading on 7 Oct 2026. Sold prices: off-plan sales in this tower in the last 12 months, 5 or more of the type. An advert has no unit number, so we compare the price per sq ft with the type, not with the same unit. An asking price is not a sale price. Days listed is from the date on the advert: an agent can place a home again as a new advert, so the real time for sale can be longer. 4 adverts have the same type, size and price as another advert: they are probably the same home with a second agent. We cannot show price cuts over time or the time to sell yet: these need more than one reading.

Mortgage: what DG1 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.

Monthly payment

Cash you need on day one

Buy against rent

Loan limits: Central Bank of the UAE mortgage rules (first home under AED 5 million: 80% for residents, 85% for UAE nationals; AED 5 million and above: 70% and 75%; second home or investment: 60% and 65%; off-plan: 50%; 25 years at most; all your debt payments at most 50% of your income). Banks set their own limit for buyers who do not live in the UAE. Fees are the usual ones: Land Department 4% of the price plus AED 580; mortgage registration 0.25% of the loan plus AED 290; trustee office AED 4,200; agent 2% plus 5% VAT; bank fee 1% of the loan plus VAT (it differs by bank); valuation AED 3,150. This is an illustration, not an offer of a loan. Rates read on 9 Oct 2026.

Which side faces what

The direction of each landmark from DG1, 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.

Floor plans: where to see them

We do not hold a floor plan that we could check against the sold sizes. These pages show floor plans for DG1. We have not checked them.

No resident reviews: the tower is not built

Nobody lives in DG1 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.

Own a unit here?

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, 4 Jul 2023 to 14 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 (live adverts: community guide, metropolitan.realestate, propsearch.ae, zeuscapital.ae), read by an AI model on 15 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: unit positions on a floor, the side and view of each unit.
