Hayat

About Hayat

A gated villa and townhouse community by Dubai South’s own developer, in the Residential District beside Al Maktoum International Airport. Dubai South reported more than AED 1.2 billion of sales within hours of the launch.

My take

• Suits: Buyers betting on Al Maktoum Airport and Expo City.
• What I'd check: Sales sources quote different payment plans, some with a part due after handover. Get the plan in writing for the exact unit.
