Downtown Dubai apartments for sale: what the Orven selection actually offers
In Downtown Dubai itself, Orven currently offers one project, Mercedes-Benz Places by Binghatti, with two- and three-bedroom suites and four- to five-bedroom or triplex penthouses. No studio or one-bedroom in this district today, and Business Bay next door fills that gap.
Search for Downtown Dubai apartments for sale and Orven's honest answer starts here: inside the district itself, the selection holds one project, Mercedes-Benz Places by Binghatti, with two- and three-bedroom suites plus four- and five-bedroom or triplex penthouses. There is no studio, no one-bedroom and no mid-rise family block in this particular selection for Downtown proper. If your budget or unit size points elsewhere, Business Bay sits immediately next to Downtown and carries several more options.
What the selection has in Downtown Dubai
Mercedes-Benz Places brings the automotive brand's design language to a standalone tower, with suites named after iconic cars and a photovoltaic, star-patterned façade. Published typologies are two- and three-bedroom suites, and four- and five-bedroom or triplex penthouses. There is no confirmed starting price and no published payment plan for this project; both are confirmed by your adviser, unit by unit, when you enquire.
| Project | District | Published unit types | Price / payment plan |
|---|---|---|---|
| Mercedes-Benz Places | Downtown Dubai | 2 to 3 bed suites; 4 to 5 bed and triplex penthouses | On request |
What the selection does not have here
There is currently no studio, no compact one-bedroom and no branded residence with a published price inside Downtown Dubai in Orven's selection. If you are searching specifically for a smaller unit near Burj Khalifa, that gap is real today, and it is worth saying plainly rather than stretching the Mercedes-Benz Places collection to fit a size it does not offer.
Business Bay, right next door
Business Bay borders Downtown Dubai and carries a wider spread of unit sizes in the Orven selection, including studios and larger apartments from Binghatti's Business Bay towers. If your search for a Downtown-area apartment is really a search for proximity to the Burj Khalifa skyline and DIFC rather than the Downtown postcode itself, our Business Bay apartments for sale guide lays out that alternative with its own table. You can also read the wider Downtown Dubai district guide for context on the neighbourhood, its skyline position and what living near Burj Khalifa involves day to day.

Budget: on request, by design
Binghatti has not published a starting price for Mercedes-Benz Places suites or penthouses. Orven does not estimate one. When you send your budget to your adviser, they check the current price list directly with the developer's sales desk for the unit sizes you are considering, and confirm whether a Downtown suite fits inside it or whether Business Bay is the more realistic match at that level. The same applies to the payment schedule: some Orven projects publish a fixed split, such as 20% at reservation and 80% at handover for Coastal Haven, or 20% plus 40 monthly instalments for Chelsea Residences, but Mercedes-Benz Places is not one of them yet, so the schedule is confirmed contract by contract.
Registration fees and the Golden Visa
Whatever the final price, a Dubai Land Department registration fee of 4% applies to a completed sale, split conventionally between seller and buyer, with additional fixed charges confirmed at contract. Off-plan reservations register instead through Oqood, at a fixed fee confirmed in the sales contract. If your eventual purchase reaches AED 2 million or more, it can open the door to a Golden Visa application, subject to conditions that you confirm directly with the relevant authorities; Orven's role stops at pointing you toward that threshold, not at promising the visa itself.
Buying a Downtown or Business Bay apartment remotely
Reservation, the escrow payment and Dubai Land Department registration are all handled without a trip to Dubai. Message Orven on WhatsApp at +971 52 776 1939 or by email at sales@orvenproperties.com with the unit size and budget you have in mind. Your adviser checks what is actually available this week at Mercedes-Benz Places, and if a suite or penthouse there does not match, walks you through the closest fit in Business Bay instead, with the same remote process from reservation to handover. Brokerage is provided through ORVEN REAL ESTATE BROKERAGE L.L.C S.P.C (Economic License No. CN-6800129, ADRA).
