Measure	This developer	Base	What it says, and does not
Completions on record	0	7 off-plan	No completed building by this name appears in the corpus. That is not the same as never having delivered: see the note below.
Payment plan discount	4.29%	7 schedules	How much less the unit costs in today’s money than its headline, once the published schedule is discounted. Market median 5.26%. Terms, not price: the full ranking.
Community footprint	3 communities	6 located projects	A focused book: 50% of it sits in Dubai Islands. Concentration is a fact about exposure, in either direction, not a verdict.
Listing completeness	97%	7 off-plan	Share of five listing facts published across its own projects: price 100%, handover date 100%, unit inventory 86%, payment plan 100%, coordinates 100%. Market 86%. This scores disclosure, not the buildings.

Not measured here: share past stated handover; price against neighbours. Each of those needs a base this developer does not reach in the corpus, and a thin number is worse than none.

The scorecard does not measure whether Citi hands over on time. Every project in this corpus carries one handover date, the date its listing stated when we read it. There is no separately recorded original announced date and no earlier reading of the same project to compare against, so no on-time rate can be computed, and we publish none rather than a proxy. The completions column is also bounded by what the corpus can see: 1,034 of the 1,087 delivered buildings on record handed over in 2020 or later (96%), and the corpus only sees projects that were listed on the portals we read, so an absent completion is an absence of evidence rather than evidence of absence. Full definitions, queries and limitations: methodology.
