The short version
320 Riverside Crescent
is an off-plan residential project by Sobha in Sobha Hartland 2, Dubai. The project facts supplied to Oliva cover five priced units across one, two and three bedroom layouts. The overall asking price range in the data is AED 2,257,335 to AED 3,801,187, with the lowest priced unit at AED 2,257,335.
The stated handover is July 2027. The payment plan is 20 per cent on booking, 40 per cent after booking and 40 per cent upon handover. Because the current listing dataset does not include total unit count or detailed building specifications, a buyer should confirm the full inventory, floor plans and finishes directly with Sobha before committing. Oliva is a RERA-licensed buyer-side brokerage in Dubai with BRN 1573501.
Where 320 Riverside Crescent is
320 Riverside Crescent is located in Sobha Hartland 2, Dubai. No area level transaction or price aggregates were supplied with the current listing data, so the review cannot benchmark the project against recent pricing in the wider Sobha Hartland 2 market. Buyers should ask for RERA approved area data or commission an Oliva underwriting report to assess local comparables.
Without aggregate data, practical checks include road access, public transport proximity, school and retail catchments and nearby construction activity that could affect the July 2027 handover. The buyer should also confirm the exact plot location within Sobha Hartland 2, as the area may include multiple phases and access points.

Paying for it
The main payment plan is stated as 20 per cent on booking, 40 per cent after booking and 40 per cent upon handover. This means a substantial portion of the purchase price is collected before handover, with the final instalment due at handover, currently projected for July 2027. The exact timing of the after booking instalment is not specified in the dataset, so buyers should confirm whether it is linked to construction milestones or a fixed calendar schedule in the sale and purchase agreement.
For cash flow planning, the buyer should also confirm whether the 40 per cent after booking is a single instalment or split into smaller payments, and what happens if the after booking instalment falls before handover. The final 40 per cent due at handover means a large payment will coincide with taking possession.
The price table
The supplied unit price table shows five units. There are two one bedroom apartments, priced from AED 2,257,335 to AED 2,270,721, with areas of 981.45 to 987.27 square feet. There is one two bedroom apartment at AED 3,042,647 with an area of 1,322.89 square feet. There are two three bedroom apartments at AED 3,801,187 with an area of 1,652.69 square feet.
Against the AED 2,500,000 price threshold shown in the data, two units sit at or under that mark, both one bedroom apartments. No two or three bedroom unit in the supplied set falls within the AED 2,500,000 boundary. The overall minimum price across the supplied units is AED 2,257,335 and the overall maximum is AED 3,801,187.
The data does not specify floor, view, orientation or whether parking is included in the quoted prices. Buyers should request a unit by unit price list and confirm any additional charges before comparing units. Only five units are shown, so the available inventory under AED 2,500,000 is narrow.
What to verify
Escrow. Confirm that 320 Riverside Crescent has a project escrow account registered with the Dubai Land Department under Dubai Law No. (8) of 2007. Payments should be made only to that project specific escrow account, and you can verify the account details with DLD.
Oqood. After booking, ensure the unit sale is registered with Oqood, the DLD off plan registration system. The fixed facts include a DLD transfer fee of 4 per cent, which is separate from Oqood registration and should be budgeted for transfer.
Service charges. No service charge figure is supplied in the project facts. Request the RERA approved service charge budget or the indicative service charge index for the building before signing, and confirm which items are included in the service charge.
Handover. The stated handover is July 2027. Ask for this date to be written into the SPA with any delay provisions, grace period and penalty clauses, and confirm whether handover applies to the specific unit or the entire building.
Payment plan enforceability. The plan is 20 per cent on booking, 40 per cent after booking and 40 per cent upon handover. Request a schedule that connects the after booking instalment to defined milestones, and ensure the contract states what occurs if completion is later than July 2027.
Where this lands
Based on the current listing data, 320 Riverside Crescent sits at the upper end of the AED 2,500,000 threshold for the units shown. The two one bedroom units are just under AED 2,500,000, while the two and three bedroom units are above AED 3,000,000. This project is likely suited to buyers who want a Sobha Hartland 2 address, are comfortable with a July 2027 handover and can manage a front loaded payment plan. It is less suited to buyers seeking a broad choice under AED 2,500,000, because only two of the five priced units sit below that mark.
An Oliva underwriting report, priced free of charge, can provide a buy or do-not-buy verdict on a specific unit in 320 Riverside Crescent. On off-plan the developer pays Oliva's commission and the buyer pays nothing for representation. A 2% + 5% VAT buyer fee applies only to resale and secondary purchases.
