Master plan
The developer’s own site plan for Mackerel Tower, showing how the buildings, roads and open space sit together.

What you pay, and when
The published schedule splits the price 35% on booking and 65% at handover. At the AED 2,823,031 entry price, that is AED 988,000 to reserve a unit, and AED 1,835,000 due on completion.
Dubai Land Department registration is charged at 4% of the purchase price on top, which is about AED 113,000 at this entry price. Under Dubai's Law 8 of 2007, that 35% booking payment goes into a RERA-supervised escrow account rather than to Tarrad Development directly, and is drawn down against certified construction progress.
What the entry price works out at
The cheapest unit with a published size is 1,290 square feet at AED 2,823,031, which works out at AED 2,188 per square foot. Stated sizes run from 1,290 to 1,583 square feet.
