Frequently asked questions

Who is the developer of Forest?
Aldar is the developer of record for Forest in Dubailand, Dubai, per projects-master-scraped.json (live scrape), record updated 2026-08-24T22:36:33Z. Developer track record — delivery history, handover timing and post-handover quality — is a separate check we run against Dubai Land Department project registrations before any client commitment, and is not covered by this fact sheet.
What is the starting price of Forest?
AED 990,000 is the recorded starting price for Forest, per projects-master-scraped.json (live scrape), record updated 2026-08-24T22:36:33Z. This is the developer list price at record date, not a transaction price: released inventory and pricing change with each sales phase, so currently available units can start higher or lower than the recorded figure.
What payment plan does Forest offer?
60/40 is the recorded payment plan for Forest, per projects-master-scraped.json (live scrape), record updated 2026-08-24T22:36:33Z. Developer payment plans are marketing terms, not registry data: instalment splits can change between sales phases, and any post-handover component should be verified in the sale-and-purchase agreement before reservation.
What fees apply when buying Forest?
4% of the purchase price is the Dubai Land Department registration fee — the main statutory transaction cost when buying Forest. Standard admin (trustee/Oqood) charges apply on top and, where applicable, agency fees. Annual service charges are billed separately per square foot once the unit is handed over.
