Knightsbridge — off-plan in MBR City (Meydan District 11)

• Developer — the official website says LEOS Developments; portal cards say LEOS International (high) ^{[1] [3]}
• Location — Meydan District 11, Mohammed Bin Rashid City (high) ^{[1] [3]}
• Homes marketed (Phase 1) — Highclere 4BR townhouses (high — LEOS + PF) · Balmoral 6BR villas (high — LEOS + PF) · Grosvenor 5BR villas (med — Bayut name; PF 5BR ladder without Grosvenor label) ^{[1] [5] [3]}
• Master framing — 112 homes across both phases (high) ^{[1] [5]}
• Starting price — official from AED 7.9M, also shown by Property Finder (high as a changing marketing price) ^{[1] [3]}
• Handover target — November / Q4 2027 on portals (med — not printed on the official page) ^{[3] [4]}
• Portal payment plan — 10% booking · 45% during build · 5% on handover · 40% after handover (med — Property Finder only; Bayut says the official plan was not unveiled) ^{[3] [5]}
• Portal ownership field — freehold (med) ^[3]

The AED 7.9M figure is a community starting point, not a quote for a particular home. ^{[1] [3]}

Knightsbridge is a low-rise Phase 1 shortlist of townhouses and villas in Meydan District 11 — not a tower and not the Phase 2 villa chapter. LEOS’s product page markets climate-adaptive wellness positioning, British architectural cues, smart-home claims and lagoon-side amenity renders. ^{[1] [3]}

Named Phase 1 types (confirm the label on your form):

• The Highclere — 4-bedroom townhouse. Official sellable band about

3,958–4,001 sqft; plots about 1,853–4,191 sqft. LEOS type copy markets private gardens, pools and elevators. Property Finder prints a Type B row at 3,971 sqft from about AED 7.9M. Bayut counts about 43 Highclere homes. ^{[1] [3] [5]}

• The Grosvenor — 5-bedroom villa (med — Bayut Phase 1 name; PF shows a

5BR stand-alone villa without always printing Grosvenor). PF row near 4,478 sqft from about AED 12M; Bayut cites roughly 5,647 sqft built-up with wider plot bands. Reconcile with measured plans. ^{[5] [3]}

• The Balmoral — 6-bedroom signature villa on the official page. LEOS type

copy markets a private elevator, private cinema, wellness/gym area and private pool. Property Finder signature villa about 7,131 sqft from about AED 16M; Bayut sellable near 7,268 sqft. ^{[1] [3] [5]}

Master framing is 112 homes across both phases. Propsearch’s Knightsbridge Park card estimates about 66 units; sibling Park 2 is about 46 — together they line up with 112. Do not paste 112 onto Phase 2 alone. ^{[1] [4] [5]}

Shared amenity marketing includes a swimmable lagoon, running track, outdoor cinema, harvest garden and yoga. ^{[1] [3]} Brochure chips only — plot exhibits and the sale pack decide what is delivered.

Sibling Knightsbridge 2 is Chatsworth / Blenheim from about AED 13.8M. Decide between the phases first; the paperwork should then reflect your selected home. ^[2]

Keys on free portals (aligned year — still a target):

• Property Finder prints Q4 2027, November 2027 and expected completion 15 November 2027 ^[3]
• Propsearch prints estimated handover November 2027 ^[4]
• Bayut’s area guide says estimated handover 2027 ^[5]

The sale pack’s completion clause is what binds — not a portal month chip. ^{[3] [4]}

How the portal divides the price:

• Property Finder shows 10% at booking, 45% through construction, 5% at handover and 40% afterwards in both its summary and detailed block ^[3]
• Bayut’s guide still says the official payment plan has not been unveiled on that page — so PF is not dual-locked against the developer site we captured ^{[5] [1]}

That 40% after keys matters. Convert the dated instalments in your own sale pack into dirham amounts before deciding whether the schedule fits your budget. ^[3]

Progress notes on capture: Property Finder markets booking 15 April 2025 and construction start 16 April 2025; Propsearch first-traced the project in July 2024. ^{[3] [4]} These dates do not prove how far construction has progressed on site.

Developer hub: LEOS International. The official site uses LEOS Developments, while portals use LEOS International. ^{[1] [3]} Check the legal seller named on the booking form and sale contract before paying.

Area hub: MBR City. Knightsbridge is sold as Meydan District 11 inside Mohammed Bin Rashid City. LEOS and Property Finder market direct access to E66 and E311 — orientation only, not a commute guarantee. ^{[1] [3]} Property Finder labels the tenure freehold; confirm that in the title paperwork. ^[3]

Sibling research on this site: Knightsbridge 2 — the Phase 2 villa chapter with a higher open and different type names. ^[2]

1. Phase mix-up — sales calls can blur Knightsbridge Phase 1 (Highclere / Grosvenor / Balmoral, open near AED 7.9M) with Knightsbridge 2 (Chatsworth / Blenheim, open near AED 13.8M). Contracts should name the phase and type you chose. ^{[1] [2]}
2. Name variants — official Knightsbridge, Propsearch Knightsbridge Park, master 112 vs Park-only ~66. Your unit paperwork should use the correct Phase 1 name and home type. ^{[4] [1]}
3. Payment is portal-led — 10/45/5/40 (with 40% post-handover) on PF is not dual-locked on the official page we captured; Bayut still says the official plan is not unveiled. ^{[3] [5]}
4. Keys are portal-led — November / Q4 2027 comes from listing portals, not an official completion promise. ^[3]
5. Price ladder noise — official 7.9M vs PF unit opens 7.9M / 12M / 16M vs Propsearch pre-registration samples that can print below the marketing open. ^{[1] [3] [4]}
6. Size labels disagree — Highclere duals well; Grosvenor and Balmoral size rows stretch between PF, Bayut and brochure language. Use measured plans. ^{[3] [5]}
7. Unit count is layered — master 112 is both phases; Phase 1 stock is single-source estimates. ^{[1] [4]}

No rental return or scarcity claim is used here.

1. Before booking Knightsbridge, verify its project registration and escrow account through Dubai Land Department tools.
2. Choose Knightsbridge Phase 1 and either Highclere, Grosvenor or Balmoral — not Phase 2’s Chatsworth / Blenheim. Check that the booking form and sale contract show the choice you made. ^{[1] [2]}
3. Check the legal seller is consistent across the booking form and sale contract; the public brand appears as LEOS Developments and LEOS International. ^{[1] [3]}
4. Expand the PF 10/45/5/40 chip (especially the 40% post-handover slice) into dated AED amounts for one home only. ^[3]
5. Ask for a dated offer showing one unit number, its sellable area and its plot. The community’s AED 7.9M starting point is not that offer. ^[1]
6. Read the completion and delay clauses for your unit; a November 2027 portal date does not replace them. ^[3]
7. Ask what the service charge may cover, how many parking spaces come with the home, and which finishes cost extra. ^[1]
