Location: Al Hebiah Fifth
Al Hebiah Fifth sits in the inland, southern part of Dubai, in the wider Dubailand district. This part of the city has been developing over the past several years. It is generally associated with newer, planned communities rather than the established waterfront districts.
It tends to suit buyers who want a newer-build setting and are comfortable being away from the coast. It may also suit investors who are planning for the long term. Before you commit, check the exact plot location, the access roads and the travel times to your workplace, schools and the airport. The master plan will show which of these are already in place and which are still planned.

Construction progress and handover
The DLD register shows 0% construction progress, a construction start in July 2026 and expected completion in Q1 2030. That is a build period of roughly three and a half years from the stated start. Handover dates in off-plan projects are targets and can move, so treat Q1 2030 as an expectation and not a promise.
Before you buy, it is worth checking:
- That the project number (4381) appears in the DLD register and matches the developer named in your paperwork.
- The handover date written in the Sales and Purchase Agreement (SPA), and what happens if it is delayed.
- Which payments are linked to dates and which to construction milestones.
- The name of the escrow account for the project.
- Updates on progress once construction begins.

How to buy off-plan in Sorrento
- Choose a unit and reserve it. You pay a reservation deposit and sign a reservation form. Ask for the price list and payment plan first.
- Sign the SPA. The Sales and Purchase Agreement sets out the price, the payment schedule and the handover terms. Read it before you sign.
- Register with the DLD. Off-plan sales are registered through the DLD's Oqood system. The DLD registration fee is usually 4% of the purchase price, plus smaller administrative fees.
- Pay into escrow. Under Dubai law, buyer payments for registered off-plan projects go into a project-specific escrow account. They are released to the developer as construction progresses.
- Handover. Once the unit is completed, you pay any final instalment and receive the keys.
Foreign buyers can purchase in Dubai's designated freehold areas. Confirm the status of the specific plot with Dani. If your purchase value reaches AED 2 million, you may be eligible for a Golden Visa, subject to the current rules. Property-based eligibility depends on the type of property and the conditions in force at the time. Our Dubai property investment FAQ covers the basics.
