When will Muraba Veil be handed over?

The Dubai Land Department (DLD) register holds a completion date of 31 December 2028 for Muraba Veil, and Muraba gives the same target, Q4 2028. Gulf News also reported a December 2028 completion.

Progress has been slow so far. Construction was registered as starting on 1 December 2024, and the tower was 7.6% complete at the DLD inspection of 28 September 2026, with 27 months left to the registered date. Continental Club’s pace estimate, based on the past year of inspections, is about 0.58% a month.

Building-by-building dates and how the date has changed: Muraba Veil handover date.

Muraba Veil construction update

DLD inspections recorded 5.45% on 16 March 2026, 7.16% on 18 June 2026, 7.5% on 17 September 2026 and 7.6% on 28 September 2026. The project is DLD project 3106, with its escrow account at Commercial Bank of Dubai.

The tower is registered as five basements, ground, one podium and 72 floors. It is 380 metres tall and 22.5 metres wide, the width of one apartment, and wrapped in a stainless steel mesh “veil” that gives it its name (Dezeen, 17 October 2024). WSP is the engineering consultant (The Foundry).

Muraba Veil homes and sizes

Muraba markets 131 residences from 2 to 5 bedrooms, each spanning the full width of the tower (Construction Week, 22 October 2024). The DLD register lists 135 units, including a few non-residential units.

Home type Units (DLD) Typical size
2 bedroom 54 about 3,839 sq ft
3 bedroom 48 4,951 to 8,172 sq ft
4 bedroom 28 9,919 to 15,356 sq ft
5 bedroom 1 about 26,667 sq ft

Counts and sizes are from the DLD register via Continental Club. Ceiling heights start at 3.2 metres and reach 7.65 metres in some units (The Foundry).

Muraba Veil prices and resale

Broker pages list prices from about AED 11.7 million. The lowest DLD sales match that: two 2 bedroom units at AED 11,764,843, on 22 April and 23 May 2025. Continental Club also records a starting price of AED 18 million in Q4 2024, so sources differ on the launch figure.

The DLD has recorded 41 sales since 2023, including earlier land transfers. Median prices are AED 13,658,036 for a 2 bedroom of about 3,840 sq ft and AED 22,913,251 for a 3 bedroom of about 4,940 sq ft. The building median is about AED 3,897 per sq ft, up 8% over the past year. Recent sales include a 3 bedroom at AED 36.6 million on 10 September 2026 and a 4 bedroom at about AED 42.95 million on 6 May 2026.

The anticipated service charge is AED 38 per sq ft a year (The Foundry).

Muraba Veil payment plan

The plan is 50/50. The Foundry lists:

  1. 5% on booking, plus an AED 5,000 admin fee.
  2. 15% plus the 4% DLD fee, 30 days after booking.
  3. 10% each in September 2025, September 2026 and September 2027.
  4. 50% on completion, set for December 2028.

Christie’s lists a similar split of 10%, 15%, 15%, 10% and 50%. One Continental Club summary describes a 75/25 plan, which does not match the other published schedules.

Muraba Veil developer and delivery record

Muraba Properties, founded in 2013 and led by managing director Ibrahim Al Ghurair, has worked with Pritzker Prize winners RCR Arquitectes for a decade. Muraba Veil is the fifth project of that partnership (Construction Week). Its earlier Dubai building, Muraba Residences on the Palm Jumeirah East Crescent, has 46 units (Continental Club). In 2024 Muraba said it takes its time on each project rather than set dates early (Time Out Dubai, 23 October 2024).

What to check before buying at Muraba Veil

  1. Progress against the registered date. At 7.6% in September 2026, the remaining 92% would need to be built in 27 months to meet 31 December 2028.
  2. The completion date and grace period in the SPA, since 50% of the price is due on completion.
  3. The unit count and size basis. The register shows 135 units and marketing shows 131, and duplex and penthouse sizes vary widely.
  4. Service charges. AED 38 per sq ft on a 3,839 sq ft 2 bedroom is about AED 145,900 a year.
