Strong demand
Developments by Union Properties greatly contribute to Motor City market value and status by complementing current market offerings. According to DLD data, Motor City has experienced a sharp rise in real estate transactions and a notable acceleration of market momentum over the last three quarters. Recently launched off-plan projects in Motor City have experienced strong demand, which has a positive impact on the appreciation of property values.
The Takaya development has been crafted with meticulous precision, ensuring maximum functionality and comfort and attention to detail meeting the highest standards of quality for residents. It is integrated with innovative smart building management systems that employ cutting-edge technologies to reduce energy consumption and operational costs.
Upscale features of the development include – outdoor sports courtyards, leisure pool, kid’s pool, jogging track, kids play area, multipurpose rooms at each tower, an arcade lounge, co-working spaces, cinema/AV room, and more. Furthermore, the ground floor of each tower hosts a mix of retail outlets, food and beverage establishments, as well as other services. The development also features 150 parking spaces equipped with EV chargers.
Sustainable materials
With sustainability as one of its prime focus, 'Union Properties' is contributing towards mitigating the challenges posed by climate change and other environmental hazards. The integration of sustainable materials and designs ensures longevity, lowers environmental impact and reduces utility costs of the development. Takaya has been designed with high-performance facades that exceed green building guidelines and makes use of a large plot of approximately 450,000 sq ft to create parks, a large central garden and other green spaces.
Along with sustainability, the company also prioritises healthy living, and in this regard, Takaya offers sports facilities such as jogging tracks, padel, and basketball courts, lap pool and squash court, in an urban environment where open spaces are scarce, which will be a key selling point for the coming years.
Takaya’s unbeatable launch payment plan, which is 60 per cent due within three years of construction and 40 per cent due in three years post-handover, provides investors and end users with further cash flow flexibility. Union Properties’ efforts to reduce operational costs also provide the residents with a sustainable savings option, that supports value appreciation with time. Looking ahead, ‘Union Properties’ continues to be driven by its mission to create unique and remarkable residential developments, as well as reshape the future of urban living.
The company aims to accomplish several ambitious objectives, such as the launch of AED6 billion projects just in the next 18 months. With a strategic vision and a strong commitment to excellence, ‘Union Properties’ is well-positioned to leverage new opportunities and play a pivotal role in Dubai’s thriving real estate sector by adding to the city’s extensive property portfolio.--TradeArabia News Service
