LIV development

LIV Developers is a Dubai-based, design-forward developer with roots in Los Angeles and New York. Established in 2000, the company’s leadership (CEO Latif Habib with director Ishan Khwaja) built the brand around waterfront locations, contemporary architecture and careful execution. LIV entered Dubai with a launch in 2018 and has since concentrated its pipeline in prime districts—especially Dubai Marina and Dubai Maritime City—where scarcity and views support long-term value. The firm publishes construction progress and keeps delivery disciplined; its first Dubai tower, launched in 2018, was completed by 2021, reinforcing credibility with buyers and lenders. LIV’s growth is measured but visible: a development pipeline publicly cited at AED 1+ billion, and major build contracts awarded to Tier-1 contractors such as CRCC on a 45-storey Marina tower. The brand’s formula mixes 3-meter ceilings, glassy elevations, and hotel-style amenity floors (gyms, wellness/yoga studios, lounges, kids’ zones), which boost absorption and resale liquidity in the family/lifestyle segment. Strategically, LIV stays UAE-focused while leveraging its U.S. heritage in design and marketing. For investors, the appeal is tight geographic focus, proven handovers, strong counterparties, and an inventory mix that skews to view-led, end-user product—assets that tend to hold pricing through cycles
