Uptown Motor City flats and Green Community homes
Uptown Motor City is a grid of low-rise blocks with British-style names such as Fox Hill, Dickens Circus, Norton Court and Sherlock House, next to the Dubai Autodrome. Green Community Motor City has the villas and townhouses. Low-rise blocks mean short lift runs, but car park ramps and courtyards can make the walk from the truck long.
For a flat, apartment movers can price from a list of rooms and your floor. For a townhouse with a garden, ask for a survey.
EDACOM and the owners' associations
Union Properties says EDACOM is its dedicated community management company, and EDACOM describes itself as the owners' affairs and community manager for Motor City and Uptown Mirdif. Ask EDACOM or your building's management for the move-in form and any NOC before you book a date; the Union Properties permit guide covers the steps.
Moves between Motor City, Sports City and JVC are short drives, so the time goes on loading and the lifts, not the road.
