James Paul Booth
The agent's view
“The Portman is off-plan, so no owner has sold a completed home here yet. Buyers took 18 homes here in the 12 months to 26 Oct 2026, at about AED 1,261 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: 70/30 or 20/50/30

How the developer asks you to pay for a home bought off-plan. The median off-plan price here in the last 12 months is AED 1.02m (Land Department records); each share applies to your own price.

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: “70-30 is the payment plan of Portman at JVC Dubai.” (binayah.com)

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. The two sources describe the same 70/30 structure at different detail (source 1 itemises the 50% construction stage as 10+10+six 5% instalments), so they do not conflict. Source 1 also lists a 4% DLD fee payable in addition to the 20% at reservation. Source 3 had no usable plan text.

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
Studio– (under 10)–AED 865,000 (4)
1-bedAED 1,015,000 (14)1,362AED 1,299,000 (6)

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 (6 of 218 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 (6); 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 off-plan sales to state a yearly change

Median AED 1,261 per sq ft in the 12 months to 26 Oct 2026 (18 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 2023: 218 sales of 161 units

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

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. 8 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 The Portman 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

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. Assumptions, the same in every BUY DUBAI calculator: rate 3.99% a year, the most common 3-year fixed rate in two bank comparison lists dated 5 October 2026; repayment loan over 25 years; Land Department fee 4% of the price plus AED 580; trustee office AED 4,200 (AED 2,100 under AED 500,000); agent 2% plus 5% VAT; with a loan: mortgage registration 0.25% of the loan plus AED 290, bank fee 1% of the loan plus VAT (it differs by bank), valuation AED 3,150.

No resident reviews: the tower is not built

What we can show is below: what the developer and the documents say about the project. We add resident reviews after handover.

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, 13 Feb 2023 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 (Building guide from live adverts (facts and resident opinions; rewrite in your own words; cite as "live adverts")., binayah.com, dubai-immo.com, live adverts: community guide, 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: a floor plan document, unit positions on a floor, the side and view of each unit.
