Faro Emaar at The Heights Country Club & Wellness

Emaar Properties was founded in 1997 and built Downtown Dubai, Burj Khalifa, Dubai Hills Estate, Dubai Creek Harbour, and Arabian Ranches. The group has delivered more than 118,000 residential units globally. Faro is registered through Emaar Development P.J.S.C., the Emaar subsidiary listed on the Dubai Financial Market that builds homes for sale in the UAE.

Faro by Emaar belongs to an 81 million sq ft master community backed by AED 55 billion of announced development. Salva, Serro and Serro 2 were the first villa releases at The Heights Country Club and Wellness. The plan keeps density low, with homes set around landscaped corridors, walkable streets and open green areas rather than towers.

Open the Project Status Enquiry service on the Dubai Land Department website and search for project number 4450. The Full Fact Sheet shows the developer, completion percentage and registration status. The Inspection Details tab holds every RERA progress report with site photos, and the Escrow Account tab names the bank that holds buyer funds. Under Law No. 8 of 2007 on escrow accounts, that money reaches the developer only against verified construction progress. Pay the booking amount only into the project escrow account, never into a personal or broker account, and make sure your Sales and Purchase Agreement is registered on Oqood, the interim register for off plan homes.

Faro buyers pay the Dubai Land Department fee of 4% of the purchase price when the Sales and Purchase Agreement is registered on Oqood. Small DLD admin charges are added at the same stage, and the fee is due on the full villa price rather than the down payment. Mortgage buyers pay a further 0.25% of the loan amount to register the mortgage. Some developers cover part of the DLD fee as a launch offer, so buyers should confirm who pays it in the reservation form.

Jebel Ali School, South View School Dubai, Fairgreen International School and Ranches Primary School are each within a 15 minute drive of The Heights Country Club and Wellness. The master plan also sets aside land for schools, a hospital and a mosque, which will become the closest options for Faro residents once they open.

• Families who need 3 or 4 bedrooms and can wait for the planned handover before moving in.
• Buyers who want an Emaar villa inside a wellness led master community rather than a tower apartment.
• Investors with a long holding period who are comfortable funding the full construction stage.
• Buyers who want to check every payment and inspection on the official DLD record.

• Investors who need rental income within the next few years, since construction is at an early stage.
• Families who need 5 bedrooms or more, as Faro offers only 2 villa sizes.
• Buyers who need a short daily drive to Downtown Dubai or DIFC for work.
