Master plan
The developer’s own site plan for The Residences DIFC Zabeel District, showing how the buildings, roads and open space sit together.

What you pay, and when
The payment plan published for it runs 5% on booking, 45% during construction and 50% at handover. At the AED 2,980,000 entry price, that is AED 149,000 to reserve a unit, AED 1,341,000 across the build, and AED 1,490,000 due on completion.
Dubai Land Department registration is charged at 4% of the purchase price on top, which is about AED 119,000 at this entry price. That 5% booking payment does not go to Dubai International Financial Centre (DIFC) directly: under Dubai's Law 8 of 2007 a registered project holds it in a RERA-supervised escrow account, drawn down against certified construction progress.
What the entry price works out at
The cheapest unit with a published size is 846 square feet at AED 2,980,000, which works out at AED 3,522 per square foot. Stated sizes run from 846 to 1,898 square feet.
Ownership and residency
The entry price is at or above the AED 2,000,000 property threshold for the 10 year UAE golden visa, so the cheapest unit in the development qualifies on its own.
