Our own stock as of 28 August 2026: village median AED 3.2 million, price per square foot AED 1,433. Sample sizes are small — two lots per cluster — the numbers show order of magnitude only.
Haven by Aldar in our database: median AED 3.2 million at AED 1,433/ft².
AED 1,433/ft² is the level of The Valley (AED 1,323) and Damac Lagoons (AED 1,371) — that is, of Dubai's outer suburban communities.
Aldar is Abu Dhabi's largest developer, and Dubai is a new market for it. That's not a delay risk in the usual sense: the company is state-linked in origin with a long track record.
But experience in one emirate doesn't transfer completely: logistics, contractors and infrastructure timelines are their own in Dubai. Check the same things you would for any off-plan project, plus the community master plan's timelines.
Propsearch passport: 265 residences. Our stock as of 28 August 2026: 2 lots (areas, prices, price per square foot), per-cluster calculations for the community, medians and price per square foot for Haven by Aldar, The Valley and Damac Lagoons.

Ask about this projectDubailand. Not one district but a vast planned region covering much of inland Dubai — a name that means very little without a sub-community attached.
There are no open listings for this building in the database right now. I will check the price for a particular layout against the closed databases and send it with the deal costs worked out.

I will send the available layouts, the real entry price and what owners and tenants actually say about the building — without the brochure language.
