BEYOND Developments
One hundred and fifty-seven homes and two penthouses between the Burj Khalifa District and the Dubai Water Canal, completed in 2022.
Unit count and completion year are the developer’s own. This is a completed building, so pricing comes from the resale market rather than a developer price list.
The Sterling is the smaller, quieter sibling of The PAD, next door on the same stretch of Marasi Bay. One hundred and fifty-seven residences and two penthouses, completed in 2022 and positioned between the Burj Khalifa District and the Dubai Water Canal.
The building is aimed at buyers who want the canal frontage and the Downtown proximity without the scale of a 250-unit tower. The developer’s phrase — “the expression of infinitude” — is brochure language, but the intent is clear: long canal views, wide glazing, and living space arranged to face the water.
Practically, The Sterling is a well-located completed building with a small unit count, which tends to mean a tighter owners’ community and less rental competition inside the building itself than in the larger Business Bay towers. It is four years old, so the finish and the service charge arrangements are all inspectable.
What to weigh. Small buildings in Business Bay trade less often, so finding the right unit can take time and negotiating leverage is limited. And like every completed building here, there is no developer plan — cash or mortgage.

Price on request. The Sterling completed in 2022, so there is no developer price list or payment plan. Purchases are cash or mortgage at resale prices set by individual owners.
Budget for 4% Dubai Land Department transfer, agency commission (typically 2%), the developer’s NOC fee, and settlement of any outstanding service charges at transfer.
We will send the current listings with asking prices, achieved prices in the building and the service charge history.
Resale pricing is set by owners. We check what comparable units have actually sold for.
The amenity offer is compact and proportionate to 157 homes: pool, gym, spa and a residents’ lounge, with the canal promenade effectively acting as the building’s outdoor space.
