the Design :

Smart/Intelligent Design

It was after due extensive discussions and deliberations, all complemented by expert opinions and serious planning, that the final design of Lakeside Residence evolved. Being the first project of our new business, it could not be anything but perfection itself. Lakeside Residence has been given special attention from top to bottom and the most recent design is the result of the numerous meetings and discussions that we have gone through. In view of the other products available in the market, we along with our architects who have the expertise in designing projects of international stature, have come up with a design that we believe is most sensible in terms of the utilization of space and practicality of views being offered within the boundaries defined by Nakheel. We have termed it as the “smart/intelligent design”.

The exterior of the building has also been designed keeping in consideration the weather of the region as well as the modernity aspect of the looks and style. This building by every angle has style which speaks for itself.

Optimum usage of space combines with aesthetic elevation and landscaping to express a unique presence for Lakeside Residence. Indeed, Lakeside Residence is a proud statement of perfection with a dignified elegance that has no parallel.

yea, it's one of the oldest JLT proposals

$81.7m Lakeside Residence sales


Al Manal Development has opened sales for its $81.7m Lakeside Residence project in Jumeirah Lakes. A 35-storey tower will offer 359 one and two bedroom apartments. Asteco is agent for sales and Mashreqbank is offering home finance.

Lakeside Residence, 5% down

The Al Manal Lakeside Residence tower is offering one and two bedroom apartments in Dubai's Jumeirah Lake Towers district with a 5% payment on booking and a further 5% in 12 instalments, with up to 90% finance available and payment only on possession.

Looks like they increased their starting prices from Dhs 750/sq ft to Dhs 860/sq ft... maybe because of a unique payment plan? (40% after completion.... the only one in JLT)

hi guys i read in ACARI Magazine there 4 new towers in JLT it calld Jumera Business Tower 1,2,3 and 4 from AL Fajer Properties

yeah we know of them, thanks :)

yup...we know abt those...there are actually 5 of them but 1 is still unreleased.

'We wanted a partner that will help us realise our vision for The Lakeside Residence - for it to be a landmark within a modern and master planned community such as Jumeirah Lakes Towers,' Mr. Juma Al Ghurair said. 'We're delighted to select a reputable and reliable company such as Al Liwan. We have every confidence that the construction will proceed smoothly and up to the high standards of quality that Al Liwan is noted for.'

We bring into this project more than a decade of experience in the industry, having constructed many medium- to large-scale building and civil engineering projects since 1990,' said Mr. Adib Ataya. 'We wish Al Manal all the best in all its future projects. We are looking forward to a fruitful long-term partnership with them.'

In addition to beautifully designed apartments, The Lakeside Residence has two floors dedicated for basement parking, a retail space at the concourse level, and an amenity deck on level 15. Construction on The Lakeside Residence begins on April 2006.

The Lakeside Residence.

Until September 1, 2006, all new buyers of one- to two-bedroom apartments in the 35-storey tower will be given shopping vouchers to buy the furnishings of their choice for their newly-purchased and elegantly-designed flats.

'We have received an overwhelming public response since we launched only a few months back with close to 40 per cent of the 358 freehold apartments already sold out. This is our way of rewarding our clients, as well as encouraging others to be a part of this exciting residential project, which offers the privilege and benefits of a master-planned community, as well as one of the truly select few to give residents a spectacular view of the Jumeirah Lakes,' said Juma Ahmed Majid Al Ghurair, Chairman, Al Manal Development.

Al Manal Development and Emirates Islamic Bank sign landmark MoU

Al Manal Development and Emirates Islamic Bank (EIB) have signed a landmark Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) to provide mortgage finance to customers wishing to purchase property in the exquisite 'Lakeside Residence', Al Manal Development's AED 300 million flagship venture located at the Jumeirah Lake Towers project.

http://www.ameinfo.com/images/news/0/30500-manal.jpg
Mr. Juma Al Ghurair, Chairman of Al Manal Development and Mr. Faisal Aqil, General Manager Retail Banking at Emirates Islamic Bank.

This will be available through the bank's 'MANZILI' home finance services.

The MoU was signed by Mr. Juma Al Ghurair, Chairman of Al Manal Development and Mr. Faisal Aqil, General Manager Retail Banking at Emirates Islamic Bank.

'Our MoU with Emirates Islamic Bank stems from our belief in this substantially solid banking institution along with our strong faith in its reputation as a prominent, well reputed and customer oriented establishment' said Mr. Juma Al Ghurair.

'We foresee a fruitful relationship with EIB going forward and perceive our agreement as a long term one. We plan to launch a number of ambitious projects in the near future' said Al Ghurair.

Emirates Islamic Bank will extend home finance to 85% of the total value of the property to UAE nationals and expatriates with a repayment period of up to 20 years. Customers earning salaries equivalent to AED 8,000 per month or more are eligible for finance depending on the Bank's eligibility criteria.

'The Bank is keen to develop strong relationships with pioneering companies which support the nation's economic growth plans. Al Manal Development is among such companies and we have faith in their commitment to continue with their significant achievements. There is no doubt that this relationship will enable further development of real estate finance operations and positively support community growth as well as the needs of customers,' said Mr. Faisal Aqil.

With MANZILI, customers can choose finance schemes that best suit their needs based on the Islamic finance concepts of Murabaha, Ijara and Musharakah-Ijarah, and are available to the cross section of society. There is minimal documentation required, with the products being highly competitive compared to both Islamic and conventional bank offerings.

The Lakeside Residence is a 35 storey residential tower boasting 358 elegantly designed freehold apartments incorporating advanced intelligent and modern lifestyle features. Construction of these one and two-bedroom units began in August this year, as per schedule and will be completed in 2008.

Lakeside Residence passes 75 per cent sales mark

Al Manal Development reports that it has sold more than three-quarters of its prestigious Lakeside Residence project at Jumeirah Lake Towers in well under a year.

http://www.ameinfo.com/images/news/6/35636-almanal.jpg
Lakeside Residence.

The 35-storey AED 300 million residential tower is currently on schedule for handover at the end of 2008 and has attracted a mix of buyers from the US, UK and Middle East, most who plan to live there.

Chairman of Al Manal Development Juma Al Ghurair says this demonstrates demand is still strong for quality projects in Dubai and he believes it will continue to be so in the immediate future.

'Purchasers can see a lot of progress in the surrounding area and not just new buildings. The metro line is well advanced, new roads are well under way and, in the Jumeirah Lake Towers area, the master developer Nakheel is putting the final touches to the promenade and lake construction.'

Al Ghurair says this has given people confidence to buy off the plans, because they know that by the time they move in at the end of next year the surrounding community will have moved from being a 'work in progress' to a vibrant place to live, work and play.

'Where else could you get such a striking skyline as presented by the Dubai Marina as a back drop to our peaceful waterfront location right on the lake?'

While there are less than a quarter of the apartments left for sale, not all are being put on the market at this time - Al Manal Development intends holding some back until the project is completed.

'There is no urgency for us to complete the sales process,' Al Ghurair says. 'We want potential purchasers to feel that they have been able to take their time and that they have made the right decision on where to buy.'

In addition, Al Ghurair believes there will be a premium to be extracted from sales of apartments ready to move into, and Al Manal Development is keen to maximise its opportunities in this area.

Those wanting to buy one of the apartments currently on the market have a choice of three easy financing options - either through Mashreq Bank, Emirates Islamic Bank or a mortgage plan direct from the developer.

Lakeside Residence was launched in March last year and the ground breaking ceremony took place in April. Sales commenced at the same time.

When do they expect to complete the building?

concrete structure almost done , dont know that it will have this roof or justa simply one ?

http://i2.tinypic.com/r0nnh2.jpg

I think around end 2010 -2011 depends how fast will be the cladding and the interior works.

I saw yesterday , first floor cladding begun , we will see the progress soon.

They seemed to be clearing up at the top of the building a few days ago.

Large amount of concrete were being thrown down a chute that eventually disintegrated leaving lethal lumps of concrete falling more than a 100m into the promenade area well clear of the protective enclosure. Having seen that, I'm not too keen to be walking anywhere near these construction sites - a hard hat would have been no protection.

Al Manal are still publishing the following payment scheme on their website for the Lakeside Residence.
http://www.manal-me.com/index.php?page=shop.product_details&flypage=shop.flypage&product_id=62&category_id=38&option=com_phpshop&Itemid=64


25% advance down payment

10% 1st installment on May 08
10% 2nd installment on October 08
15% 3rd installment on March 09
10% 4rth installment on December 09
10% 5th installment on June 10
10% 6th installment on December 10
10% 7th installment on June

I believe the “15% 3rd installment on March 09” was supposed to be the unit handing-over installment and is now postponed.

Do you know if Al Manal have issued a revised payment / completion schedule?

Thanks.

I called Al Manal and they informed me that if we paid 45% so far then the next payment is only due on completion which is now expected by June – July 2010.

First project gets approval under Dubai guaranteed funding plan


Al Manal’s project in Jumeirah Lake Towers gets Dh65m financing from Mashreq bank

March 28, 2011

Al Manal Development has become the first real estate developer to secure a two-year funding of Dh65 million from Mashreq for its Lakeside Residence in Jumeirah Lakes Towers.

The funding has been initiated through the Dubai Land Department’s Tayseer programme.

Majida Ali Rashid Senior Consultant and Senior Director of Planning & Organizational Development at the Land Department said in a press statement: “Mashreq was the first to join the Tayseer programme by signing a funding agreement for the Lakeside Residence project being developed by Al Manal Development. The 358-apartment project has secured a two-year loan depending on completion percentages.”

Handful of workers on site, hopefully pick up speed now.

Should be done around Q2-Q3 2012, cladding has good progress now.

I expect 15 to 18 month to complete, so Q2'2013 is realistic

What do You think about the date of the completion of the construction?

July 2012???

It is always a question how you define 'completion of the construction'. Yes the building is more or less done. There are just some windows, cladding missing where the crane was. But this can be done quickly.
Handover will take a bit longer. My guess is a minimum of 6 to 9 months. The inside is far from ready.

I was surprised to read that 40% of the payment is to be made over next 2 years after the handover, unlike neighboring Laguna Towers where 90 to 100% of the payment has been collected and no sign of handover yet, broken promises, flagrant lies and with every opportunity offered like furniture packages is, to rip off already distraught investors and from exterior views building appears to in a pathetic shape.

This is the only JLT project with a payment of 40 percent 2 years after the handover. I can sell my one bedroom apartment).

Kitchen furniture is only.

Outside lift has been removed, not much work left.

could you please put the latest inside and outside pictures updates of Lakeside residence in jumeirah lakes Towers of DUBAI.

Thanks for the pictures Tony.

Any idea as to how much longer for handover? Developer has apparently said it should be ready for pre-inspection / handover by September / October. Do you think that is realistic looking at the building?

Thank you

Hard to tell without seeing the inside, the outside is virtually done. The big indicator will be when DEWA is connected, no lights on as yet.

Nothing is preventing the developer to organise a pre-inspection. Could easily be done in September or October. But it does not mean that handover is happening soon. Just look at neighbouring Laguna Tower. Those guys did there pre-inspection 15 months ago and are still waiting for their keys. The important bit is the completion certificate and the safety checks done by the authorities. I think handover is possible as early as January 2013 but could also be a lot later. Just check the posts of Laguna Tower.

Thanks building1. I think you're right - from what the Developer told me, they were trying to organise DEWA checks etc. fairly soon (next 1-2 months) but this could still mean actual handover in 6 months+ time. Hopefully God Willing we won't be waiting around beyond Q1 2013.

Looks done from outside

Looks pretty finished from outside - looks like cladding and windows have all been cleaned. Any ideas what the inside situation is like and realistic pre-inspection / handover timeline?

Ready for handover according to this report?

Does anyone else have any further updates on this?

Hello fellow Lakeside Residence investors,

Any news as to when handover is likely to happen? Last I heard it was meant to be December but still haven't heard anything from Al Manal. Does anyone have any further updates or a view as to when handover will commence?

Thanks in advance,
Abu Ahmad

I had been to the developers office on Thursday and was informed that the hand overs will begin in about 15 days.

Thanks Dubai SCP. Do you know if the developer will be sending out any letters or email communications about the handover procedure?

I visited the tower today. They told me that they got the BCC (building completion certificate) yesterday and will start the handover process soon. Looking at the units, they definitely need a good clean and some snagging before handover. I am seeing the handover to start not before 01. February. Generally the units look fine with good views of the lake. The quality of the finish is substandard and the units are not of a great size. But it will rent easily as there is not a lot of stock in JLT. Neighboring Laguna Tower is renting between 75k and 85k for a one bedroom. For Lakeside I am seeing rents between 60k and 75k for the one bedrooms.

Thanks very much for the update. I saw some pictures recently and they definitely look like they could do with a good clean. Hopefully InshaAllah we'll get an official communication from Al Manal explaining the handover procedure soon.

Just received a letter from Al Manal Development's LSR handover team. They request us to call and schedule an appointment to
1. Settle outstanding dues
2. Snag the apartment

If you have already snagged your apartment, please share your findings.

Hi,

I've not received my letter yet, hopefully soon InshaAllah. Apart from the 15% instalment on handover, what other fees etc. are they asking for? Once I get my letter, I'm planning to make a trip to Dubai in a couple of weeks InshaAllah...

Hi! All.
We specialize in property sales, leasing and management. Those of you who are interested in the above can kindly contact me on +971 55 4773746 alternatively email me on adilsait@sandcastlesproperties.com

is it done?

Has anybody taken possession of their unit ? Please describe your impression of the building/ apartment.

I was there about 3 weeks ago. The tower still needed a fair amount of cleaning internally but externally looked pretty complete. I thought the apartment quality was reasonable, kitchen worktops were nice (granite I think), bathrooms were okay (low to medium quality). Overall though the finishing looked decent but there were a few things to rectify - doors needed repolishing, some tiles needed regrouting etc.
