The ground and first floor of the towers are designated for commercial space. Spaces are allocated for offices, ATMs, cafes and restaurants, and retail stores.

HDC states that additional services will be provided based on demand.

The apartments come with tiled floors, AC systems in living rooms and bedrooms, fittings and fixtures in toilets, cupboard set and counters in kitchens, and space in balconies to put washing machines.

However, the apartments will not come furnished, said HDC.

Tenants have two payment options for the apartments.

OPTION 1:

Down payment of 15-19 percent of total payment, and monthly installments of the remaining payment over 20 years. HDC projects it will earn a profit of nine percent with the payment method.

OPTION 2:

Down payment of 20 percent or higher of total payment, and monthly installments of the remaining payment over 25 years. HDC projects it will earn a profit of nine percent with the payment method.

HDC states the down payment can be made in bulk or in installments until the project is complete in both methods.

Tenants will need to pay the monthly rent once the project is complete and the apartments are handed over.

HDC is also working on initiating additional projects in Hulhumale’ Phase II, including a yacht marina, tourism island, heritage island and botanical garden.
