Emirates City Forum

We bought a 3 Bedroom (1600+sft.) flat at 355/sft. for which we have paid more than 225,000/- AED till date, We have paid our installments on time and we were asked not to pay as Al Batha Real Estate was not having an escrow account nor was registered with the AREA, and they said that they were processing the papers for the same. We were waiting for the for the formalities to complete and we were willing to pay but in the mean time get a letter from Al Batha Real Estate that they have certain challenges and we need to contact them immediately which we did and when contacted we heard that one of the partners Mr. Abu Hamza siphoned all the money that was in the and left the country to his home (Yemen) with the family. Now he is not willing to come back to UAE secondly the other partner is in jail for bounced cheques.

We were offered an alternative to buy a flat in Dubai with Al Massa, the current rate if you have to buy a flat directly is 700 but for Crown RESIDENCIA buyers it is 770/sft. along with the payment plan. In this plan if we lose all the money what we have paid for Crown RESIDENCIA and it is as if we are buying a new flat in these times. We as Crown RESIDENCIA flat owners are stuck in between all of this not knowing where to go or whom to approach for our refund. I met Abu Baker and he says nothing much can be done at this time and they cannot refund the money as they don't have and not only that they need to pay R Holding money for the plot around 1.7 million AED ARERA money around 600,000 AED.

As we have all gone through this we need to work together to do something - can we all have our contact details collected and sent to one place to coordinate an action collectively.

here are few contact details along with mine, people add in your contacts as well
