Distress Deal — 6BR + Maid Villa | Autograph Collection DAMAC Hills | AED 14,280,000 | Below OP+DLD | May 2027

6-Bedroom Mansion Villa in DAMAC Hills Autograph Collection — AED 720,000 Below Seller’s Total Cost

This is a distress off-plan sub-sale on one of the most exclusive residential products available in Dubai: a 6-bedroom + maid’s room mansion villa in DAMAC Hills Autograph Collection — a gated collection of just 50 custom-built villas within the 42 million sq ft DAMAC Hills golf community. The seller’s total acquisition cost was AED 15,000,000 (original developer price plus DLD fees paid at booking). The asking price of AED 14,280,000 represents a AED 720,000 (4.8%) loss the seller is absorbing to exit. With 60% of the developer payment already settled (~AED 8,653,846), the buyer inherits a substantially funded position in one of Dubai’s most supply-constrained luxury villa communities, with only the 40% on handover (~AED 5,769,231) remaining — due May 2027.

About DAMAC Hills Autograph Collection and the Developer

The Autograph Collection is DAMAC Properties’ most exclusive residential offering in DAMAC Hills — a curated cluster of precisely 50 custom-built villas positioned within the community’s most coveted plots, adjacent to the Trump International Golf Club Dubai and the 30,000 sq ft luxury clubhouse. The villas span 4 to 7 bedrooms across 14 distinct architectural styles, with sizes ranging from 2,919 sq ft to 22,804 sq ft. Every villa is built to a bespoke specification: double-height foyers, 3.4-metre ceilings, imported marble sourced from Italy, Greece, and Spain, European-appliance fitted kitchens, smart-home controls, walk-in closets, and private pools. The 6-bedroom configuration at 9,550 sq ft BUA is a multi-storey mansion-format villa with 7 parking spaces — a specification that places it firmly in Dubai’s ultra-luxury residential tier.

DAMAC Properties, the developer, is one of the UAE’s largest and most active private real estate developers, responsible for over 48,000 delivered luxury homes and an additional 50,000 under development across 100 million sq ft of planned space. DAMAC Hills is the company’s flagship golf community — a 42 million sq ft masterplan featuring the Trump International Golf Club (an 18-hole PGA-standard championship course), DAMAC Mall, Malibu Bay wave pool, equestrian stables, and a fully self-contained lifestyle ecosystem. The Autograph Collection’s position within this community — available to just 50 buyers worldwide — is the defining scarcity factor that underpins its long-term value.

Layout and Floor Plan

This 6-bedroom + maid’s room Autograph Collection villa spans 9,550 sq ft of built-up area across multiple floors on a 4,719 sq ft plot. The multi-storey configuration — consistent with Autograph Collection’s B+G+2 or G+2 villa formats — delivers a full-depth mansion layout: basement-level entertainment suite and garage, ground floor with reception areas, formal and family dining, open kitchen, and indoor-outdoor living extending to the private garden and pool. Upper floors accommodate the six en-suite bedrooms, a master wing with walk-in wardrobe, and a top-floor terrace with community or golf course views. The driver’s room, maid’s room, and utility areas are separately accommodated within the layout. Seven dedicated parking spaces are provided — an unusual allowance that reflects the mansion-tier specification of this unit. The exact style (one of 14 Autograph architectural variants), specific floor plan, and villa position within the cluster are available on request from DistressPropertyFinder.com.

Payment Plan — What the Buyer Steps Into

• Asking Price (Net to Seller): AED 14,280,000
• Seller’s Total Cost (OP + DLD paid at booking): AED 15,000,000
• Seller’s Loss: AED 720,000 (4.8%)
• Estimated OP (excl. DLD): ~AED 14,423,077
• Already Paid to DAMAC (60%): ~AED 8,653,846
• Remaining to DAMAC at Handover (40%): ~AED 5,769,231
• Handover Date: May 2027
• DLD Transfer Fee (buyer pays 4% at sub-sale): ~AED 571,200
• Trustee / Conveyancing: ~AED 4,200
• Buyer Agency Fee (2%, if applicable): AED 285,600
• Total Transfer-Stage Cost: ~AED 15,141,000
• Total All-In (incl. 40% at handover): ~AED 20,910,231

For this DAMAC off-plan sub-sale, the buyer pays the seller AED 14,280,000 and assumes the seller’s Sales Purchase Agreement (SPA) with DAMAC Properties. The MOU records both the transfer of the SPA and the payment structure. DAMAC Properties issues the NOC once the seller’s 60% paid balance is confirmed as current — typically 7–10 working days. The DLD registers the transfer and the buyer becomes the new SPA holder. From that point, only the 40% on handover (~AED 5,769,231) remains payable — due May 2027 when DAMAC delivers the completed villa. The buyer therefore has over a year from today to plan the handover payment, either through cash reserves, bridging finance, or mortgage pre-approval. DistressPropertyFinder.com coordinates all stages from MOU drafting through to DLD transfer and handover-stage facilitation.

Pricing Analysis — Why This Is a Distress Deal in 2026

• Asking Price: AED 14,280,000 | AED 1,495/sq ft (BUA)
• Seller’s All-In Cost (OP + DLD): AED 15,000,000
• Seller’s Loss: AED 720,000 (4.8%)
• Comparable Active Listings (6BR, Autograph Collection): AED 17,000,000–17,258,000
• Comparable by BUA (7BR at similar BUA ~10,672 sqft): AED 15,900,000–17,000,000
• Effective Discount vs Active Market: AED 2,720,000–2,978,000 below current asks
• 60% Already Funded: Buyer assumes only 40% (~AED 5,769,231) forward
• Total Autograph Collection Supply: 50 villas only — permanently fixed
• DAMAC Hills Average Rental Yield: 6–7% | Autograph 4BR benchmark: 8.7%
• 6BR Luxury Villa Annual Rent (DAMAC Hills area): AED 500,000–800,000/yr
• Projected Gross Yield on Ask: 3.5–5.6% (long-term, post May 2027)
• DAMAC Hills Appreciation Projection (2025–2030): 8–12% annually

Active Autograph Collection 6BR listings are currently asking AED 17,000,000–17,258,000 on Property Finder. This seller is pricing AED 2,720,000–2,978,000 below those comparable asks — not because of any deficiency in the property, but because of a personal liquidity requirement that demands an immediate exit. The buyer captures that gap as crystallised equity at the point of transfer. Importantly, with 60% of the developer price already paid, the buyer’s forward exposure is limited to the 40% on handover in May 2027 (~AED 5,769,231) — a known, predictable cost that can be planned for in advance. In a community where DAMAC Hills villa prices are projected to appreciate 8–12% annually and the Autograph Collection’s 50-villa supply cap creates structural scarcity, the combination of below-market entry, limited forward payment, and May 2027 handover makes this one of the most efficiently structured luxury villa acquisitions available in Dubai’s 2026 market.

DAMAC Hills — Location and Why It Matters

DAMAC Hills occupies 42 million sq ft of Dubailand, situated along Al Qudra Road (D63) and Hessa Street (D61) — two of the most important mid-Dubai arterial roads connecting the community to Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road (E311) to the east and Sheikh Zayed Road (E11) to the north. The community sits equidistant between Dubai Marina (20–31 km, 20–31 minutes) and Downtown Dubai (25–34 km, 25–34 minutes), placing it in a central suburban corridor that captures both the western waterfront lifestyle demographic and the eastern business district commuter population.

The community’s defining anchor is the Trump International Golf Club Dubai — an 18-hole PGA championship course that was recognised as the Best Golf Project in the World in 2016. Golf course proximity in Dubai has a documented impact on villa pricing: within DAMAC Hills itself, units with direct course views command approximately AED 55,000 per year more in rent than non-view equivalents — a rental premium that compounds into a significant capital value premium at resale. For the Autograph Collection specifically, which is positioned directly adjacent to the course, this premium is embedded in the product rather than being an optional feature of selected plots.

Beyond golf, DAMAC Hills has built out one of the most complete community infrastructures in outer Dubai: DAMAC Mall, full-size supermarkets, schools (Jebel Ali School within the community), clinics, pharmacies, an aquatic park, equestrian facilities, and 25+ themed parks. For families considering a self-sufficient lifestyle that does not require daily transit into the city, the community stands alongside Arabian Ranches and Dubai Hills Estate as one of the three primary villa communities in this tier.

DAMAC Hills — Distances and Connectivity

• Motor City / Dubai Sports City: 11 km (11-minute drive)
• Arabian Ranches: 12 km (12-minute drive)
• Global Village (seasonal): 14 km (15-minute drive)
• Mall of the Emirates: 18 km (20–28 minutes)
• Dubai Marina / JBR: 20–22 km (20–31 minutes)
• Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC): 22 km (20–25 minutes)
• Expo City Dubai: 24 km (22 minutes)
• Burj Al Arab: 22 km (27 minutes)
• Downtown Dubai / Burj Khalifa: 28 km (25–34 minutes)
• Dubai International Airport (DXB): 36 km (30–40 minutes)

Why Invest in DAMAC Hills Autograph Collection

• Only 50 villas exist: The Autograph Collection is a permanent scarcity product — no additional units can ever be released into this specific collection within DAMAC Hills.
• Below-market entry: AED 720,000 below the seller’s own all-in cost; AED 2.7M–3.0M below current comparable active listings.
• 60% already funded: Buyer assumes only 40% (~AED 5,769,231) at handover May 2027 — reducing forward capital commitment significantly.
• Trump Golf Course premium: Direct adjacency to an 18-hole PGA championship course drives a measurable, documented rental and resale premium in this community.
• 8.7% gross yield benchmark: Autograph Collection 4BR villas demonstrate an average gross yield of 8.7% per OPR research — among the highest for luxury villa product in Dubai.
• Mansion-specification product: Private pool, cinema, gym, 7 parking spaces, imported marble, smart home — a specification typically found only at price points of AED 20M+ in comparable Dubai communities.
• DAMAC delivery track record: DAMAC Properties has delivered over 48,000 homes and is actively developing 50,000 more — May 2027 is a firmly underwritten timeline.
