## When will Nuve by Zoya be handed over?

Nuve by Zoya is scheduled for handover in Q2 2028, the date Zoya Developments gave at launch in March 2026 (Zawya). The Dubai Land Department (DLD) register, where it is listed as "Nuve By Zoya" in Wadi Al Safa 5 (the registered area that covers Dubailand Residence Complex), holds a registered completion date of 30 June 2028.

The DLD inspection on 20 July 2026 recorded the project 0.79% complete. That was about three months after the registered construction start of 15 April 2026, leaving just under two years to the registered date.

## Nuve by Zoya construction update

The DLD register records construction starting on 15 April 2026 and lists the project as under construction, DLD project number 4290 (Mitchells, register as at 4 October 2026). The only published DLD inspection, on 20 July 2026, recorded 0.79% complete, which is consistent with site preparation and foundation works. Zoya has not published its own construction update for Nuve.

## Nuve by Zoya homes and sizes

Nuve is a single mid-rise building with fully furnished homes and smart home systems. The launch release lists 232 residences; the DLD register lists 234.

| Home type | Units (Zoya) | Size |
|---|---|---|
| Studio | 169 | 414 to 519 sq ft |
| 1 bedroom | 51 | 770 to 899 sq ft |
| 2 bedroom | 12 | 1,177 sq ft |

Unit counts and sizes are from Zoya's launch release (Zawya, 17 March 2026). Studios make up about 73% of the building, so most units will compete in the DLRC studio rental market after handover. Amenities listed include an infinity pool, plunge pool, jacuzzi, indoor and outdoor gyms, a children's play area and a rooftop deck.

## Nuve by Zoya prices and resale

Zoya launched Nuve in March 2026 with prices from AED 695,000 and a total project value of AED 202 million (Zawya). Grand Reve Realty listed studios from AED 687,000, 1 bedrooms from AED 912,000 and 2 bedrooms from AED 1,459,000 (accessed 11 October 2026).

The DLD register shows 179 sales registered to 4 September 2026. Across 51 sales in the detailed data, the median was about AED 693,000, or AED 1,506 per sq ft, for a median size of 432 sq ft. Studios had a median of AED 1,602 per sq ft over 41 sales, 1 bedrooms AED 1,201 per sq ft and 2 bedrooms AED 1,273 per sq ft over fewer sales (Mitchells, to 5 October 2026). Mitchells puts the project about 4% above the DLRC off-plan median of AED 1,445 per sq ft. All recorded sales so far are off-plan purchases.

## Nuve by Zoya payment plan

Zoya markets Nuve on a 50/50 plan with 1% monthly instalments:

- 10% on booking, plus the 4% DLD fee
- 10% within 45 days of booking
- 30% during construction, 1% a month
- 10% on handover
- 35% after handover, 1% a month for 35 months
- 5% final instalment, within 36 months of handover

The schedule is from Zoya's brochure and Grand Reve Realty. Half the price is paid by handover and the rest over three years after it.

## Nuve by Zoya developer and delivery record

Zoya Developments is an Indian developer that announced its entry into Dubai in January 2026, with more than AED 2 billion allocated for the following three years (Zoya Developments, January 2026). Its launch release says the group has more than 14 years in the UAE market. In Dubai it has launched several projects in quick succession, including Pristine by Zoya in Al Furjan, Miorah by Zoya in Dubai South and Izel by Zoya in DLRC, which opened sales in February 2026 with a Q3 to Q4 2028 handover (CBNME, 22 May 2026). None of its Dubai projects had been completed by October 2026, so Nuve's delivery cannot yet be judged against a Dubai track record.

## What to check before buying at Nuve by Zoya

1. **The completion date in the SPA** and how it relates to the registered 30 June 2028 date, including any grace period.
2. **The post-handover schedule**, since 40% is paid over three years after handover and the developer has not yet delivered a Dubai project.
3. **The furniture package** included in the price, as Zoya sells every unit furnished.
4. **DLD inspection figures over the next year**, which will show whether the building is on course for mid 2028.
