This plan spreads the price over the months to handover and beyond, and money you have not paid yet is money you still have. Valuing every instalment on the day it actually falls due, at 5.0% a year, this schedule is worth 2.65% less than the headline, or AED 21,314 on the published entry price. It is not a discount anyone will give you at the counter, and the total you sign for does not change. It is what the timing is worth, and it is the number to compare against another project handing over at the same time.

Computed from the published schedule and the stated handover date, at a 5.0% annual cost of money compounded monthly. It credits no rent, no capital growth and no allowance for a handover delay. Definition and the reason for the rate: methodology. Where this project sits against every other: the plan discount ranking.
