LIWAN is a district near Dubai Academic City, built up mainly with mid-market low-rise housing.
A new building on the edge of the city
LIWAN in our database is a single lot in the sample; by price per square foot it sits close to Arjan (AED 1,614) and Majan (AED 1,618) — in the same price band.
The building is new — completed in 2025 — meaning modern systems and no accumulated common-property issues.
The developer is small, without a broad portfolio in our data: condition needs checking on site, since we hold no record of the company's past projects.
Check transport access — Academic City and LIWAN have no metro, and the commute takes noticeable time.
