An off-plan launch website has weeks to build trust and capture serious buyers. Here is what it needs, from bilingual content and payment plans to lead routing for brokers.

Short answer: an off-plan project website in Dubai should go live before the launch event, in English and Arabic, with the masterplan, unit types, floor plans, payment plan and handover date easy to find, fast on mobile, and every enquiry routed instantly to the right sales agent or broker, with tracking that shows which campaign it came from.

Why off-plan websites are different

Buyers cannot visit the finished building, so the website carries the burden of proof. International investors often decide from their phone, in another time zone, and compare several launches in the same week. The site has to answer their questions and earn trust quickly.

What the website must include

  • A clear project story: location, developer, concept and why it matters.
  • Unit types with floor plans, sizes and views, filterable on mobile.
  • The payment plan and expected handover, written plainly.
  • Location and connectivity: maps, nearby landmarks and travel times.
  • Renders, a short film or a virtual tour, compressed so they load fast.
  • Developer credentials: past deliveries, approvals and escrow information where applicable.
  • Brochure and floor plan downloads that capture contact details first.
  • Instant contact options: call, form and WhatsApp, visible on every screen.

Bilingual by design, not by translation

English and Arabic should both feel native. That means right-to-left layouts, proper Arabic typography and copy written by native speakers. Many buyers also expect Russian, Chinese or Hindi content for key pages, so plan the structure for more languages from the start.

Lead capture and routing

Off-plan launches generate bursts of enquiries. Each one should land in your CRM with its source, campaign and preferred language, then be assigned to the right agent or broker within minutes. Slow follow-up loses buyers to the next launch.

Speed and mobile first

Most traffic comes from social and paid campaigns on phones. Heavy renders and videos must be optimised, and the site should load in under three seconds on mobile data. Every second of delay costs enquiries.

A practical launch timeline

Weeks 1 to 2: strategy and content

Positioning, audience, sitemap, copy in both languages and the lead flow.

Weeks 3 to 5: design and build

Landing pages, unit explorer, brochure downloads, CRM and analytics integration.

Week 6: test and launch

Speed, forms, tracking and Arabic layouts tested on real devices, then live before the launch event.

After launch

Weekly updates: availability, new phases, price changes and campaign landing pages.

Frequently asked questions

How long does it take to build an off-plan project website?

A focused launch site usually takes 4 to 6 weeks, depending on content and integrations.

Should each project have its own website?

For major launches, yes. A dedicated site with its own name and campaign pages converts better than a single page on the developer's main site.

Can the website connect to our CRM?

Yes. Enquiries can flow into Salesforce, HubSpot, Zoho or a custom CRM with source tracking and agent assignment.

Does The BrandBerry build real estate websites in Dubai?

Yes. We design and build bilingual real estate websites, launch campaigns and the brands behind them for developers and brokerages in Dubai and across the UAE.
