The project, which is already under construction, is situated near the Dubai Canal and features a total of 385 residential units along with two retail spaces.

This is not the first time Omniyat has sought financing, as the company has approached banks for funding twice in recent months. In November, Omniyat secured Islamic financing facilities worth AED 445 million ($121.1 million) from Al Hilal Bank to support several projects, including the luxury One Palm development on Dubai’s Palm Jumeirah. Additionally, in December, the developer obtained AED 500 million ($136 million) in project financing for the construction of a new AED 1.34 billion ($365 million) Dorchester Collection hotel project.

These funds will be utilized to support various projects, including the luxury One Palm development on Dubai’s Palm Jumeirah.
In September, Omniyat made headlines by selling what is touted as Dubai’s most expensive penthouse at One Palm for AED 102 million ($27.7 million). The project is slated for completion next year.
Mahdi Amjad, CEO and executive chairman of Omniyat, stated, “Securing these AED 445 million facilities underscores the progress Omniyat has made across its project portfolio. This financing will enable us to move forward with the completion and handover of our Opus and Pad projects this year, along with the One Palm project next year.”
