Where the figures come from, and what escrow means
Cresswell Plaza is registered with the Dubai Land Department (DLD) under project number 4359. Buyer payments go to escrow account 019500000874. An escrow account is a regulated account the developer cannot draw on freely: your payments go in and are released as building progresses. Escrow accounts and project registrations are published by the Dubai Land Department (DLD) on dubailand.gov.ae. Always check them, and pay into the escrow account only, before handing over a deposit. How to read the DLD register.
