Where the figures come from, and what escrow means
We do not yet hold a DLD project registration number for Portside Square. 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.

What is the price per sqft at Portside Square?
The asking price is around AED 2,892 per sqft, our estimate from the starting price and the unit sizes rather than a figure the developer has stated. Per-sqft prices vary by floor, view and finish within one building.
When is the Portside Square handover date?
Portside Square is expected to hand over in Q4 2029. The project is under construction. Handover dates are the developer's own estimate and off-plan projects can move, so confirm the current date in writing before you pay anything.
What is the Portside Square payment plan?
Portside Square is offered on a 20/50/30 plan: 20% on booking, 50% during construction and 30% at handover. Developers change plans between phases, so confirm yours before signing.
Who is the developer of Portside Square?
Portside Square is being developed by Ellington Properties. It sits in Bur Dubai, Dubai. You can see every project by Ellington Properties we list, and how their asking prices compare with registered sales, on their page.
Can foreigners buy at Portside Square?
Portside Square is in a freehold area, so buyers of any nationality can own a home here outright rather than on a lease. Dubai sets which zones are freehold; confirm the title type on your own unit's contract before paying.
Is Portside Square registered with DLD?
We do not yet hold a project registration number for Portside Square. Every off-plan project must be registered and sell through an escrow account, where the money is released as building progresses. Check both at dubailand.gov.ae before you pay.
