Location: Jabal Ali Industrial Second
Jabal Ali Industrial Second is in the Jebel Ali part of south-west Dubai. The wider Jebel Ali district is known for Jebel Ali Port, the free zone and large logistics and industrial areas. Major roads such as Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road (E311) and Sheikh Zayed Road serve this part of the city.
The name suggests an area with an industrial background. So check the details before you buy:
- What is built around the plot today, and what does the master plan allow nearby?
- How far is it from your workplace, a Metro station, schools and shops?
- What are the likely noise, traffic and truck movements on the surrounding roads?
It may suit buyers who work in the Jebel Ali area, or investors who want to rent to people employed nearby. This depends on what you are offered, so visit the site area before you decide. You can compare other schemes on our page for off-plan projects in Jabal Ali Industrial Second.
Construction progress and handover
The DLD register shows 0% progress, with construction starting in August 2026. Expected completion is Q2 2029. That is a planned date, not a promise. Off-plan dates can move.
Before you reserve a unit, check these points:
- The handover date written in the Sales and Purchase Agreement (SPA), and what happens if it is late.
- The project's DLD registration and escrow account details.
- Whether construction has actually started, and the progress figure on the DLD register at the time you buy.
- Which payments are linked to construction milestones and which are fixed dates.

How to buy off-plan in Portside by Samana Developers
- Choose a unit. Ask Dani for the current availability, floor plans and price list.
- Reserve it. You pay a booking deposit and sign a reservation form. Read the terms first.
- Sign the SPA. This sets the price, payment schedule and handover date.
- Register with DLD. Off-plan sales are registered in the Oqood system. The DLD fee is 4% of the purchase price, and there are small admin fees on top.
- Pay into escrow. Dubai law requires buyer instalments for registered off-plan projects to go into a project-specific escrow account. Never pay the developer directly into another account.
- Handover. Inspect the unit, record snags and complete the final payment.
Foreign buyers can purchase in designated freehold areas of Dubai. Confirm that this plot is eligible when you reserve. Property worth AED 2 million or more can support a Golden Visa application, subject to current rules. Off-plan eligibility has its own conditions, so check these with an adviser.
The price and payment plan are not in the DLD data. Ask Dani for the latest prices and payment plan. For general questions, read the Dubai property investment FAQ, or see all Dubai off-plan projects to compare.
