Cove Edition 4 by Imtiaz: Entry-Level Dubai Land at AED 628,000
Imtiaz Developments is behind Cove Edition 4, a residential apartment project in Dubai Land Residence Complex. Booking opened and construction broke ground in January 2025, with expected completion in January 2027. The project offers studios, 1-bedroom, and 2-bedroom apartments in one of Dubai's active mid-market residential corridors.
Dubai Land Residence Complex: Reading the Location
Dubai Land Residence Complex sits within the broader Dubai Land district, a large development zone in the southeastern part of Dubai. Emirates Road (E611) and Al Ain Road (E66) are the main road connections. The drive to Downtown Dubai runs roughly 30 to 40 minutes by car. Dubai Silicon Oasis sits to the south, Academic City is within easy reach, and Dubai International Airport is accessible without crossing the city centre.
This is not a finished urban neighbourhood. Residential development has expanded across this corridor in recent years, but the surrounding retail, dining, and services are still catching up. For an investor, the trade-off is clear: lower entry costs and newer stock, against a location that has not yet built out the density of amenities found in more established communities. That suits a medium-term hold rather than a short flip.
What AED 628,000 Gets You
The listed entry price is AED 628,000. That corresponds to a studio apartment at 389 square feet, working out to approximately AED 1,610 per square foot.
At under AED 650,000, this sits in the entry-level bracket for Dubai off-plan apartments. The 389-square-foot layout is compact, suited to a single occupant or a couple prioritising cost over space. For an investor focused on yield, the studio is the unit that defines the return calculation at this project.
Apartments on Offer
Cove Edition 4 offers three configurations: studios, 1-bedrooms, and 2-bedrooms. The studio at 389 square feet is the confirmed entry unit. The 1-bedroom option works for a couple wanting a separate bedroom, and the 2-bedroom opens the project to small families looking for new-build stock at an accessible price.
Amenities
| Category | Facilities |
|---|---|
| Fitness & Leisure | Indoor Swimming Pool, Gymnasium |
| Outdoor | Landscaped Gardens |
| Family | Children's Play Area |
| Dining | Restaurants |
| Security | CCTV Security |
Six amenities is a practical set for this price point. The indoor pool and gym cover what rental tenants in the mid-market bracket expect as a baseline. The children's play area and landscaped gardens signal a focus on families and couples, which aligns with the 1-bedroom and 2-bedroom options in the project. On-site restaurants are a meaningful addition in a location where the surrounding dining and retail is still building out.
Completion in January 2027
Construction began in January 2025. Expected completion is January 2027, roughly 19 months from now.
For an off-plan buyer entering today, payment obligations run through 2025 and 2026. Rental income only starts after the January 2027 handover date.
Two Ways to Structure the Purchase
Imtiaz offers two payment options for Cove Edition 4:
Option 1
| Phase | Amount |
|---|---|
| Down payment | 20% |
| During construction | 30% |
| At handover | 50% |
Option 2
| Phase | Amount |
|---|---|
| Down payment | 20% |
| During construction | 50% |
| After handover | 30% |
Both options start with a 20% down payment, which is at the accessible end of what Dubai off-plan projects ask.
Option 1 is back-loaded: 50% falls due at handover in January 2027, a significant lump sum at a single moment. Option 2 front-loads more during construction and moves 30% to after handover, reducing the cash requirement at the handover date. For buyers expecting rental income to offset the post-handover balance, Option 2 structures that timing more neatly.
