Cello Residences, Jumeirah Village Circle · by Taraf

Cello Residences, Jumeirah Village Circle

No price is given for this tower because there are too few recent sales to base one on. 0 market sales in the 12 months to 24 Oct 2026; 0 sales on record since 2020. A median needs at least 5.

The project
Cello Residences by Taraf is a residential project in Jumeirah Village Circle, Dubai. Two towers rise above a landscaped podium with a pool and outdoor amenities. The facade combines vertical fins and windows with LED lighting for the night. Sources: tarafholding.com, brochure (PDF)
The market says
Too few sales on record to say.
James Paul Booth
The agent's view
“Cello Residences is off-plan, due in 2027, so no owner has sold a completed home here yet. I see no sale here in the last 90 days. I would wait, or buy a completed home next door where the record is clear.”

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: 10/40/50

How the developer asks you to pay for a home bought off-plan. Handover stated: Q1 2027

10/40/50

10%40%50%
StageShareWhen
Down payment10%at booking
During construction40%in instalments during construction
On handover50%at handover

Source text: “The booking of the project can be done with a 10% down payment. During construction, 40% payment will be made in easy instalments. At the time of handover, 50% of the price will be paid.”

Read on 11 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. Source 2 lists only a '50/50' label with a 10% down payment and no step breakdown; this is consistent with the 10/40/50 plan (10% + 40% before handover = 50%, then 50% at handover), so the sources agree. Confirm the exact instalment schedule 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, 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 24 Oct 2026. Asking and rent = live listings on 7 Oct 2026. Counts are in brackets. A median needs 5 sales or 3 listings.

Type
No sales and no listings.

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 (0 of 0 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 (0). They stay in the list below with a label.

Too few resale sales to state a yearly change

0 resale sales in the last 12 months and 0 in the 12 months before. Each period needs at least 5.

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. Grey bars have fewer than 3 sales.

The official record: 2 registered sales since 2014

Dubai Land Department register for "Cello Residences", 27 Nov 2014 to 12 Feb 2026: 2 other sales, plus 1 gifts. This source has every year and every unit type, but no unit numbers.

YearOthers: sales
20151
20141

Median AED per sq ft is shown for 3 or more sales in a year. 0 of these sales were off-plan and 2 were of completed units. What our unit list above does not have: sales before 2020; mortgages and gifts. For homes from 2020 to 12 Feb 2026 the register has 0 sales and our unit list has 0.

Which side faces what

The direction of each landmark from Cello Residences, 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 Cello Residences 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.

Where sources disagree

  • Developer: Driven Properties headline says 'by Yas Holdings', while its own snapshot names Taraf Development, as do Propsearch and another source. Taraf is the real estate arm of YAS Holding according to a PSINV search results, so this is consistent.
  • Sales count: Binayah shows 11 sales since January 2026 while a Binayah search results shows 10; Luxury Located says 168 sales since March 2024 and 15 in the last 12 months.
  • Average price per sq ft: Luxury Located gives a 12-month median of AED 1,405, Binayah AED 1,407 (average since January 2026); different periods and measures.
  • Studio count: Binayah shows 1 studio sale in 12 months and Luxury Located 2.
  • Starting price: Driven Properties says from AED 588,000, Continental Club AED 594,000, Syneraproperty AED 1.14M.
  • Unit sizes: Luxury Located shows a 462 sq ft 1-bed, below the 730 sq ft minimum for 1-beds in the Propsearch and another source guides.

  • This building is not finished. Adverts repeat what the developer promises.

Source: adverts for homes in this building, read 6 to 11 Oct 2026. An advert describes one home, not the building. Parking in every JVC building.

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, 2020 to 24 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 (drivenproperties.com, live adverts: community guide, luxurylocated.com, propsearch.ae), 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: sales, a floor plan document, unit positions on a floor, the side and view of each unit.
