Questions owners ask

What is the service charge at Act One Act Two?

Act One Act Two has a RERA-approved service charge of AED 14.11 per square foot per year for 2026 (Retail units). On a 900 sqft apartment that is AED 12,699 a year, or about AED 1,058 a month.

What does that service charge pay for?

The approved budget splits into 8 categories, the largest being Utilities Services at AED 4.6, Services at AED 4.17, Maintenance at AED 1.5 per sqft. Service charges cover common-area maintenance, cleaning, security, insurance, shared utilities, management fees and a reserve fund for major works.

Is this the figure I will actually be billed?

It is the rate RERA approved for the building budget, which is what your owners' association bills against, multiplied by your unit's built-up area. Invoicing is usually quarterly through Mollak. Your own invoice can differ if your unit has a different usage type — parking and retail are budgeted separately — so check your Mollak statement for the exact amount.

Has the service charge at Act One Act Two gone up?

The approved rate was AED 12.27 per sqft in 2023 and is AED 14.11 for 2026 — up 15.0% since 2023. Owners' associations must submit a budget to RERA each year, so increases follow an approved cost rather than a landlord decision.
