Probably Jumeirah Village is still good investment but beware of some companies taking payments from you in an account which in different name. The ESCROW accounts are in another name. These companies don't provide you with any bank statement confirming that the monies have actually been transferred to ESCROW account. However this applies to properties outside Jumeirah Village as well.

Also the information given by some developers is incorrect. The fact is that most of the projects are likely to be delayed by several months. Developers usually blame Nakheel for this.
