View score methodology

Exactly how this 76/100 was built. Each factor gets a 0–100 sub-score from verified data, then contributes in proportion to its weight. A factor with no verified data yet is left out of the average entirely. It is never scored as zero and never guessed. The weights below re-balance across the factors that do have real data.

Points = sub-score × weight. They sum to the headline score (small differences are rounding).

Not yet scored: On-Time Handover Rate - excluded until verified data exists, not counted as zero.

Construction & delivery track record

No completed projects yet

Ellington Properties has no DLD-registered projects that have reached a delivery outcome (completed or cancelled), and its 11 in-progress projects are not yet past a reasonable build window. There is no delivery track record to show - this is a caution for a newer developer, not a mark against them.

The bottom line

Ellington Properties is registered with the Dubai Land Department, on the register since 2016, with 4,937 recorded sales to its name. It has no completed projects on record yet, so there is no delivery track record to judge it on, which is a caution for a newer name rather than a mark against it. Buyers rate it 4.2 out of 5 on Google across 510 reviews. Taken together, that gives a Dubai Diligence Score of 76 out of 100, which we read as established. Treat this as a well-sourced starting point for your own due diligence, not a replacement for it.

Yes. Ellington Properties appears on the Dubai Land Department's official developer register, listed since 2016, with a legal status of limited responsibility. Registration means the developer is licensed to sell in Dubai and is subject to DLD escrow rules on off-plan sales.

How active is Ellington Properties in the Dubai market?+

Projects by Ellington Properties account for 4,937 registered sales in the Dubai Land Department record across 15 distinct projects, including AED 454.8M registered in the last twelve months. Transaction volume matters because it indicates how liquid the developer's stock is if you later want to resell.

Is Ellington Properties a good developer?+

We do not rank developers on opinion and we will not guess. What the record shows is an active DLD registration since 2016, and 4,937 registered sales, alongside a public Google rating of 4.2 from 510 reviews. Our Diligence Score is 76 out of 100, computed only from factors we can verify and never from paid placement.
