The First Group

About the developer

Developer profile

The First Group is a Dubai developer founded in 2005, working across property development, hospitality management and hotel ownership. Its activities also include residences, food-and-beverage outlets, leisure venues and real-estate asset management. This combination places individual property units within a broader hospitality setting, where the unit itself and the operation of the venue are separate parts of the offering. For a prospective purchaser, the project form matters: a unit in a completed building is read differently from an off-plan unit whose construction and handover remain in progress.

The developer’s Dubai presence spans hospitality-related real estate as well as residential property formats. Project pages should be read at unit level, with attention to the community, the current construction stage and the terms attached to the particular sale. That approach helps keep the building description, the unit details and the purchase documents clearly separated.

Handover record

Handover status is a central distinction across the developer’s projects on our site. Ready projects have reached the stage at which units can be occupied, while a project under construction remains tied to its future completion process. A handover description should be considered alongside the individual unit’s sale documents, rather than as a substitute for them. Construction stage, completion percentage and handover wording each describe a different part of a project’s current position.

For completed developments, the relevant review moves from construction progress to the unit’s identification and sale terms. For a development still being built, purchasers should keep the stated construction stage and the handover information together when reviewing the project.

Projects on our site

Two completed projects sit in different communities and have separate unit counts. The One at Jumeirah Village Triangle is in JVT District 7, is complete, ready for moving in and contains 593 units. In Sports City, The Spirit is also complete and ready, with 386 units. The contrast between them is therefore not handover stage but location and the number of units within each development.

The construction-stage option is Ciel Tower in Dubai Marina. It is under construction, with prices from AED 896,000. Unlike the completed pair, this project should be read through its current build stage and the sale terms for the selected unit. Its Dubai Marina setting also separates it geographically from the JVT District 7 and Sports City projects.

What to check before buying

Check the project’s current status, any stated completion percentage and its handover wording before selecting a unit. For an under-construction purchase, review the unit documents against the relevant project details. Confirm that the selling company in the documents matches the developer recorded for that project in the Dubai Land Department registry.

What does a project page help a buyer identify?

It brings the project’s community, construction stage, completion measure, handover wording, unit count or entry price into one property-specific view where applicable. These fields should be read together, because each addresses a separate point: location, progress, availability or the scale of the development.

How should a ready status be read?

It indicates that the development is categorised for moving in, rather than being at a construction stage. The buyer should still review the particular unit reference, the sale paperwork and the agreed terms. A building-level status does not replace the need to match documents to the selected unit.

Why does the community matter when comparing projects?

Community identifies where the development sits and distinguishes projects that may otherwise share a similar property format. It also gives structure to a search: the buyer can compare unit details within one location before moving to another community, instead of treating all projects as interchangeable.

Which documents should be compared before a purchase is agreed?

The project name, unit identifier, construction description and selling-company details should align across the documents used for the transaction. Reading these items side by side keeps the selected unit connected to its project record and avoids confusing a development-level description with the terms of an individual sale.
