National Properties, the wholly-owned real estate subsidiary of National Bonds Corporation, has broken ground for Skycourts, the pioneering freehold residential development that will come up in the heart of Dubailand.

The ground-breaking follows the successful launch of the $408 million project last year, during which the first phase of residential units was all sold out within six days after the sale was opened exclusively for customers of National Bonds.

The release of the next phase of apartments will be announced shortly, with exclusive booking facility extended to National Bonds holders initially.
