Fixed-price building construction (g+10) for Motor City homes — from AED 7,600,000. Union Properties community approvals handled in-house. Free 3D design. 3-year warranty across 800+ Dubai projects.
Quick Answer · Motor City
Building a G+10 in Motor City costs roughly AED 400–880 per sqft of built-up area for residential and AED 510–680 for commercial — typically AED 15–40M+ depending on floors, basement and façade — and takes 18–30 months plus design and approvals. In Dubai a Grade-1 contractor is required above G+4. Structure is ~30-35% of cost, MEP ~20-25%, finishes ~25-30%. Built under FIDIC with mandatory milestone inspections to the Building Completion Certificate. Fixed price from a real BOQ.
After 800+ Dubai projects we see the same problems in Motor City again and again. Here's what goes wrong — and how we fix every one.
A developer is buying risk transfer, not concrete. We carry it with a graded classification, a real programme, and the cashflow discipline a multi-year build needs.
Above G+4 in Dubai you must use a Grade-1 building contractor — the grade lives in the engineers' credentials, not a claim. We hold the classification your category requires and put the certificate on the table.
Dubai Municipality, DEWA, Civil Defence and telecom NOCs run in parallel from day one, and we mobilise only on clash-detected MEP/structure drawings — the #1 cause of authority rework, engineered out.
A long build is won or lost on the commercial machinery. We run monthly IPCs on measured work, disciplined variation and extension-of-time records, and FIDIC administration that protects both sides.

Apartment buildings run roughly AED 400–880 per sqft of built-up area and commercial buildings AED 510–680, so a G+10 typically lands in the AED 15–40M+ range depending on floors, basement and façade. We quote fixed from a real BOQ; structure is ~30-35%, MEP ~20-25%, finishes ~25-30%.
In Dubai, a Grade-1 building-contracting classification is required for buildings above G+4, and the grade is earned through DM-certified engineers. Other emirates use their own category system (e.g. Abu Dhabi's DMT categories). We hold the classification your category requires and provide the certificate.
Typically 18–30 months depending on floors, basement depth and façade complexity, plus 2–4 months of design and approvals up front. We provide a written programme with milestone dates and run monthly progress valuations.
Dubai Municipality building-permit approval plus the Motor City authority NOC, DEWA, and Civil Defence (pressurised stairs, fire pumps, alarm/sprinkler coverage). Mandatory structural inspections at foundation, ground-slab and roof-slab stages. We handle the full chain in-house, in parallel.
Multi-storey work commonly runs on FIDIC (Red Book for build-only, Yellow for design-build). We administer interim payment certificates on measured progress, retention, variations and extension-of-time with proper records — the machinery that protects the programme and the budget.
Yes — the 2025 Dubai contracting law formalises JVs and turnkey contracts (with prior approval). We can JV with a graded partner to deliver a larger building, with clear accountability for each scope.
Motor City is governed by Dubai Development Authority (DDA). An approval/NOC (typically AED 1,500–6,000) is required before work starts. As Union Properties's projects have specific rules, we prepare the submission to match — and handle the full approval in-house.
Yes — we regularly work on Motor City properties including Casa Familia townhouses, Green Community Motor City villas. With plots typically 2,500–6,000 sqft and villas around 10–15 years old, we know exactly what these homes need and where the common issues are.
