Short answer

Danube Properties gives two different completion dates for Elitz 3 on its own project page: April 2027 in the main project details and Q4 2026 in its FAQ section (accessed 1 Sep 2026). Separately, Danube named Elitz 1 and 3 among 11 projects due for handover within 12 months of a July 2026 announcement, which points to a date around mid to late 2027 (Danube via Gulf News, 30 Jul 2026). Danube's inventory for the project is sold out. It uses the same 1% monthly payment plan as its other projects.

When will Elitz 3 be handed over?

Danube’s own project page is not consistent about the completion date. Its main project details, checked 1 September 2026, state April 2027. Its own FAQ section, on the same page, states Q4 2026.

Separately, in July 2026, Danube announced 11 projects due for handover within the following 12 months, naming Elitz 1 and Elitz 3 among them. That announcement gives one 12 month window for the whole group of 11 projects, which points to a date around mid to late 2027, a third figure again.

Construction on the project began in December 2023, according to Propsearch. Given the three different dates in play, from Danube’s own materials and its group-wide announcement, get the completion date for your specific tower confirmed in writing, and check it against your SPA and the Dubai Land Department’s project status enquiry service.

What is the Elitz 3 payment plan?

Danube’s page describes its standard 1% monthly plan: about 20% of the price at booking, then 1% of the price paid each month until the building is ready, with the remaining balance collected at completion. Danube’s public materials do not state separately how the 4% DLD registration fee is billed alongside the monthly instalments.

Example only. For a studio at a resale price of AED 758,000, illustrating the structure rather than an original launch price:

Payment Amount
Reference price AED 758,000
4% DLD registration fee (paid separately) AED 30,320
Approx. 20% at booking AED 151,600
1% monthly instalments (illustrative, over construction period) Ongoing
Balance at completion Remainder after booking and instalments

This uses a resale figure to illustrate the mechanics only, since Danube’s own launch price for the project is not published on its page. Confirm the exact schedule for your unit before booking.

What do homes at Elitz 3 cost?

Danube’s own project page lists the development as sold out, so its original launch prices are no longer available there. Dubai Land Department transaction data from August 2026 shows:

Unit type Size Recent price
Studio 448 sq ft About AED 758,000
1 bedroom 762 to 764 sq ft AED 1.11M to AED 1.19M
2 bedroom 1,279 to 1,289 sq ft AED 2.03M to AED 2.09M

These are recorded transactions, not current asking prices.

Who is the developer and what is its handover record?

Danube Properties says it has completed 16 projects to date, with 16 more under construction, and that it has delivered more than 15,000 apartments through its 1% payment plan overall (Danube via Arabian Post, 30 Jul 2026). It named Elitz 1 and Elitz 3 among 11 projects due for handover within 12 months of its July 2026 announcement.

What to check before booking

  1. Written confirmation of the completion date, given Danube’s own page gives two different dates for this project.
  2. How the 4% DLD fee is billed alongside the 1% monthly instalments, since Danube’s public materials do not set this out.
  3. The DLD project status for your building, through the Dubai Land Department’s project status enquiry service.
  4. Whether your unit is developer resale or a secondary sale, since Danube’s own allocation is reported sold out.
