Launches
“New” is the most abused word in off-plan marketing. This page splits it into four states you can act on, and says when each one was last checked.
Four different things get called new. A project the developer has announced but not priced. A phase newly released for sale. A project still selling but launched some time ago. And a project whose developer allocation has sold out, which listings often still describe as new because resale stock is available. This page separates all four and dates each one.
Definitions
Each carries a different level of certainty about price, timing and whether you can buy at all.
| Status | What it means | Can you buy it? | What to be careful of |
|---|---|---|---|
| Announced | The developer has named the project but published no price or plan | Not yet, or only via expression of interest | Announced projects can move or change substantially before release |
| Selling | Open for booking with a published or quotable price | Yes | A published starting price may be for a unit type that has already gone |
| Under construction | Building has started; some stock may remain | Sometimes | Ask what is left, not what the launch price was |
| Sold out at developer | The developer allocation has gone; resale continues | Only on the resale market | Listings often still say “new launch”. Resale pricing is a different market |
Selling now
The only group where a published developer price is a price you can act on today.
Alef Group Hayyan
AvailableFrom AED 1.19Mtownhouse starting price
The lowest developer-published townhouse starting price tracked anywhere on this site. Alef publishes no sizes, payment plan or handover date for the zone, and its page advertises freehold for all nationalities, which conflicts with the official Sharjah position.
Arada Masaar 2
AvailableFrom AED 1.57Mtownhouse starting price
The lowest developer-published townhouse starting price tracked anywhere on this site, and one of the few with a full payment split published. 60% falls due at handover.
Emaar Properties The Valley
AvailableFrom AED 1.6Mtownhouse starting price
Emaar's page names 3 and 4-bedroom townhouses in two architectural styles. Built-up area, plot size, payment plan and handover are not published on the project page.
Alef Group Hayyan
AvailableFrom AED 1.69Mtownhouse starting price
Two and three-bedroom townhouses alongside four-bedroom villas. No sizes, payment plan or handover date published.
Reportage Properties Dubai Investments Park
AvailableFrom AED 1.7Mtownhouse starting price
The clearest currently selling off-plan townhouse in Dubai under AED 2M. The payment plan is unusually back-loaded: 70% of the price falls due at handover.
Emaar Properties Dubai Hills Estate
AvailableFrom AED 1.72Mwhole project, not the townhouse
Apartments with a small number of 3-bedroom townhouses. The 680 sq ft minimum and the starting price are both apartment figures.
Reportage Properties Dubailand
AvailableFrom AED 1.74Mtownhouse starting price
Reportage's own page confirms a townhouse product here; the price and size come from a secondary source because the developer does not publish per-bedroom pricing. Three and four-bedroom lines are reported sold out, leaving two-bedroom stock.
Emaar Properties Emaar South
AvailableFrom AED 1.82Mwhole project, not the townhouse
A mixed release of 1-3 bedroom apartments and 3-bedroom townhouses. The published starting price and minimum area belong to the smallest apartment, not the townhouse.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Hills 2
AvailableFrom AED 1.96Mtownhouse starting price
Portal-sourced price only: DAMAC's own page shows price on request. Sources also disagree on whether this phase is still selling, so treat availability as unconfirmed until the developer states it.
Emaar Properties Emaar South
AvailableFrom AED 1.99Mwhole project, not the townhouse
Mixed apartments and 3-bedroom townhouses; the headline figure is the smallest apartment.
Emaar Properties The Valley
AvailableFrom AED 2Mtownhouse starting price
Sizes, payment plan and handover are not published on Emaar's project page.
Modon Hudayriyat Island
AvailableFrom AED 2Mtownhouse starting price
Listed by Modon as a townhouse-only product across one to four bedrooms, which makes it the most accessible verified townhouse price in Abu Dhabi. Modon publishes no dedicated project page, so sizes and current availability are unconfirmed.
Emaar Properties The Valley
AvailableFrom AED 2.1Mtownhouse starting price
Sizes, payment plan and handover are not published on Emaar's project page.
Emaar Properties The Valley
AvailableFrom AED 2.48Mtownhouse starting price
Marketed as a phase 2 release. Emaar's community page also lists a 'Velora 2' entry that does not resolve to its own project page, so we treat it as the same release until that changes.
Emaar Properties The Valley
AvailableFrom AED 2.48Mtownhouse starting price
Marketed as a phase 2 release. It carries the same published starting price as Velora; we have not been able to confirm whether that is a shared launch price or a coincidence.
Reportage Properties Dubailand
AvailableFrom AED 2.59Mtownhouse starting price
902 three-storey townhouses with no apartment component: 744 three-bedroom, 66 four-bedroom and 92 five-bedroom. That makes it the largest single source of five-bedroom townhouse stock outside DAMAC. 70% of the price falls due at handover.
Emaar Properties Emaar South
AvailableFrom AED 2.61Mwhole project, not the townhouse
Mixed apartments and 3-bedroom townhouses; the headline figure is the smallest apartment.
Emaar Properties Emaar South
AvailableFrom AED 2.63Mwhole project, not the townhouse
Mixed apartments and 3-bedroom townhouses; the headline figure is the smallest apartment.
Emaar Properties Emaar South
AvailableFrom AED 2.7Mwhole project, not the townhouse
Mixed apartments and 3-bedroom townhouses; the headline figure is the smallest apartment.
Arada Masaar
AvailableFrom AED 2.8Mtownhouse starting price
The published figure is for the four-bedroom Saro G1 townhouse. Arada's copy also references two-bedroom townhouses in the community but publishes no price for them.
Emaar Properties The Valley
AvailableFrom AED 2.89Mtownhouse starting price
No built-up area or plot figures appear anywhere on the project page.
Emaar Properties Emaar South
AvailableFrom AED 3.14Mwhole project, not the townhouse
Mixed apartments and 3-bedroom townhouses. Payment plan and handover come from a third-party aggregator, not Emaar.
Emaar Properties Emaar South
AvailableFrom AED 3.15Mtownhouse starting price
The only current Emaar South release that is townhouses and semi-detached homes with no apartment component, so its starting price genuinely describes a townhouse.
Emaar Properties The Valley
AvailableFrom AED 3.17Mtownhouse starting price
The highest published townhouse entry price of any current Valley phase.
Emaar Properties Emaar South
AvailableFrom AED 3.26Mwhole project, not the townhouse
Mixed apartments and 3-bedroom townhouses; the headline figure is the smallest apartment.
BT Properties Dubai South
AvailableFrom AED 3.4Mtownhouse starting price
The developer's own site could not be reached, so every figure here comes from a broker listing rather than BT Properties. Treat it as indicative until the developer confirms it.
Dubai South Properties Dubai South
AvailableFrom AED 3.6Mtownhouse starting price
A townhouse-only project, so its starting price genuinely describes a townhouse: 3-bedroom from AED 3.6M, 4-bedroom from AED 4.3M, 5-bedroom from AED 5.7M, on plots of 2,153 to 3,918 sq ft. One of very few Dubai projects publishing plot sizes at all. The developer's own pages give two different handover quarters.
Modon Al Reem Island
AvailableFrom AED 4.1Mwhole project, not the townhouse
Modon labels the project villas, apartments and townhouses, but the published price and size ranges span all three, so nothing here describes a townhouse specifically. On Al Reem Island, which is one of Abu Dhabi's designated investment areas.
Modon Hudayriyat Island
AvailableFrom AED 4.2Mwhole project, not the townhouse
Mansions, villas and townhouses under one starting price, so the figure is not a townhouse price. Modon states more than AED 13 billion of sales and 1,700 residences sold within days of the July 2026 launch; both are the developer's own claims.
Bloom Holding Zayed City
AvailableFrom AED 4.5Mtownhouse starting price
A three-bedroom townhouse priced as its own unit type alongside apartments and larger villas. Widely marketed as Khalifa City; Bloom's own page places it in Zayed City.
Announced only
No price, usually no plan, sometimes no handover date. Useful to watch, impossible to compare.
Binghatti Developers Dubailand
Developer announcedFrom AED 5.1Mtownhouse starting price
Binghatti's first villa and townhouse community. Its page explicitly separates 4 and 5-bedroom townhouses from 6-bedroom twin and standalone villas, which makes the five-bedroom here a developer-labelled townhouse rather than a villa.
Azizi Developments Azizi Florence
Developer announcedPrice awaiting verification
At expression-of-interest stage with no price or handover announced. Planned as 6,070 townhouses out of roughly 10,700 units, which would make it the largest townhouse pipeline in Sharjah. Azizi's page states plainly that non-GCC buyers usually receive a usufruct capped at 100 years unless the Executive Council designates the project freehold.
Al Hamra Al Hamra Village
Developer announcedPrice awaiting verification
200 townhouses in three and four-bedroom layouts, launched July 2025 as part of a combined AED 3 billion release with an apartment project. Al Hamra states more than half sold before the official launch — its own claim. No price, size or handover date is published.
Arada Masaar 3
Developer announcedPrice awaiting verification
The fifth phase of Masaar 3, launched 5 April 2026: 437 villas and townhouses in two to five-bedroom layouts, more than two thirds of them three and four-bedroom. Arada states the first four Rowdat phases sold out — its own claim. No price or handover date published for this phase.
Shurooq and SEE Holding Sharjah Sustainable City II
Developer announcedPrice awaiting verification
1,032 freehold units on a 7.9 million sq ft plot. Three-bedroom townhouses run 2,344 to 2,622 sq ft and four-bedroom 3,303 to 3,681 sq ft, which is large for the format. No price, payment plan or handover date appears on the project page.
Under construction
Some of these still have developer stock, some do not. The status field on each card says when it was last checked.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Islands 2
Under constructionFrom AED 2.75Mcommunity-wide starting price
Two DAMAC pages give different starting prices for this masterplan, AED 2.75M and AED 2.99M. We show the lower figure and flag the discrepancy rather than picking one silently. Unit types published are a 4-bedroom townhouse up to 2,185 sq ft and 5-bedroom mid and end townhouses up to 2,829 and 3,158 sq ft.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Islands
Under constructionFrom AED 2.75Mcommunity-wide starting price
DAMAC publishes prices and sizes for DAMAC Islands at community level, not per cluster. The figure shown is the community-wide starting price.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Lagoons
Under constructionPrice awaiting verification
Price and sizes are shown as available on request. The published handover quarter is already in the past, which is worth raising with the developer directly.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Islands
Under constructionFrom AED 2.75Mcommunity-wide starting price
Cluster-level pricing is not published; the figure shown is community-wide.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Riverside
Under constructionFrom AED 1.99Mtownhouse starting price
DAMAC's own page confirms the unit type, bedroom mix and handover window but renders price client-side, so the price and size figures here come from portal listings rather than the developer.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Lagoons
Under constructionPrice awaiting verification
Price and payment plan are shown as available on request.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Islands
Under constructionFrom AED 2.75Mcommunity-wide starting price
Cluster-level pricing is not published; the figure shown is community-wide.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Lagoons
Under constructionPrice awaiting verification
Price, payment plan and handover are all shown as available on request.
Dubai South Properties Dubai South
Under constructionFrom AED 3.2Mwhole project, not the townhouse
Townhouses here are 4 and 5-bedroom and villas run to 7 bedrooms, so the starting figure covers the whole phase rather than a townhouse specifically.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Islands
Under constructionFrom AED 2.75Mcommunity-wide starting price
Cluster-level pricing is not published; the figure shown is community-wide.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Lagoons

Price and exact handover date are shown as available on request.

Cluster-level pricing is not published; the figure shown is community-wide.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Islands
Under constructionFrom AED 2.75Mcommunity-wide starting price
Cluster-level pricing is not published; the figure shown is community-wide.
Reportage Properties Dubailand
Under constructionFrom AED 1.2Mwhole project, not the townhouse
Reportage calls Bianca a community of townhouses in 2, 3 and 4-bedroom layouts. The price came from a broker source and does not reconcile cleanly with the published size range, so treat it as unconfirmed.
Arada Masaar 3
Under constructionFrom AED 1.8Mtownhouse starting price
An active multi-phase release rather than fixed inventory; Arada launched a fifth phase, Layan, in April 2026. Arada's page labels ownership freehold, which sits awkwardly with Sharjah's usufruct framework.
Alef Group Hayyan
Under constructionPrice awaiting verification
Price is shown as available on request. The page advertises freehold ownership for all nationalities, which conflicts with the official Sharjah position; worth putting to the developer in writing.
Tilal Properties Tilal City
Under constructionPrice awaiting verification
The developer confirms townhouses exist in the Morooj zone but publishes no bedroom count, size, price or handover date at unit level.
Sold out at the developer
This is the group that most distorts “new projects” searches. These are real projects; they are simply no longer sold by the developer at the price you will see quoted.
Aldar Properties Athlon
Developer sold outFrom AED 2.8Mcommunity-wide starting price
AED 2.8M was the launch price for phase 1 in May 2024, not a current quote. Aldar states the first two phases sold out in 48 hours, so anything available now is either a later release or resale.
Aldar Properties Haven by Aldar
Developer sold outPrice awaiting verification
Phases 1 and 2 comprised 786 villas and townhouses and sold out in November 2023. Aldar publishes no townhouse-specific bedroom breakdown or price.
Reportage Properties Dubai Investments Park
Developer sold outFrom AED 535,516townhouse starting price
209 townhouses with no apartment component. Sold out on the primary allocation, so only resale stock remains.
DAMAC Properties DAMAC Sun City
Developer sold outFrom AED 2.7Mtownhouse starting price
Portals report developer inventory as sold out, leaving resale only. DAMAC's page publishes neither a price nor a sales status.
Emaar Properties Emaar South
Developer sold outFrom AED 4.73Mwhole project, not the townhouse
A useful worked example of why headline prices mislead: this project is widely quoted from about AED 950,000, which is its smallest apartment. Its 3-bedroom townhouses were listed from around AED 4M before selling out.
Emaar Properties Emaar South
Developer sold outFrom AED 2.7Mtownhouse starting price
Emaar's project page calls these 3 and 4-bedroom townhouses in clusters of four, while Emaar's community listing tags the same project as a villa. We follow the project page. Developer inventory is sold out; resale only.
Emaar Properties Emaar South
Developer sold outFrom AED 2.9Mtownhouse starting price
Same labelling conflict as Greenway 2: the project page says townhouses, the community listing says villa. Developer inventory sold out.
Emaar Properties Emaar South
Developer sold outFrom AED 3.2Mtownhouse starting price
Project page describes 3 and 4-bedroom townhouses. Developer inventory sold out; resale only.
Emaar Properties Emaar South
Developer sold outFrom AED 3.36Mtownhouse starting price
Emaar's project page says 3 and 4-bedroom townhouses; Property Finder's summary of the same listing says villas. The clearest single example of how this type confusion spreads.
Arada Nasma Residences
Developer sold outPrice awaiting verification
All 25 clusters show as sold out on Arada's own page. Listed as a delivered reference point for what Sharjah townhouses have actually traded at, not as off-plan stock.
Modon Hudayriyat Island
Developer sold outFrom AED 4.1Mcommunity-wide starting price
Hudayriyat Island's first townhouse release. Modon states 378 units sold out on launch day for roughly AED 2 billion — the developer's own claim, not an audited figure. The published price covers 3-4 bedroom townhouses and 5-bedroom twin villas together, so it is not a townhouse-specific figure.
Aldar Properties Al Ghadeer
Developer sold outPrice awaiting verification
Launched 15 May 2026 and announced sold out six days later for more than AED 1 billion, per Aldar's own release. A second phase was said to be brought forward. No bedroom, size or price detail is published on any reachable Aldar page.
RAK Properties Mina Al Arab
Developer sold outPrice awaiting verification
80 townhouses in two and three-bedroom layouts, sold out, with handover stated as Q1 2026. Listed here as the clearest evidence of what Mina Al Arab townhouses actually were, since the developer's current releases are apartments and villas.
Recent changes
The point of a freshness page is telling you what moved, not restating what exists.
Four of the five Emaar South townhouse clusters — Greenway 2, Greenridge, Greenville and Greenspoint — now report as sold out at the developer, leaving resale only.
See Dubai SouthArada’s Masaar 2 publishes a two-bedroom townhouse from AED 1.57M, the lowest developer-published townhouse price we track anywhere in the UAE.
See SharjahMykonos at DAMAC Lagoons still publishes a Q4 2025 handover, a quarter now behind us, without being relabelled as ready.
See DAMAC LagoonsTilal Binghatti is the developer’s first villa and townhouse community, with four and five-bedroom townhouses published from AED 5.1M and no handover date yet.
FAQ
Among currently tracked projects, the most recent releases with a published price are Reportage Hills and Reportage Village in Dubailand and Verdana X in Dubai Investments Park, all handing over in 2028. Binghatti’s Tilal Binghatti is announced with a published price but no handover date, and Azizi Florence in Sharjah is at expression-of-interest stage.
The status of every project on this site carries the date it was last checked, shown on the project card. This page is reviewed more often than the evergreen guides because sales status is the fastest-changing field we track.
The largest announced pipeline is not in Dubai at all: Azizi Florence in Sharjah is planned at 6,070 townhouses. In Dubai, DAMAC Islands 2 is the biggest committed townhouse pipeline with handovers running to Q4 2030. We do not publish rumoured launches.
Launch pricing is often the lowest a phase will be offered at, which is why phases sell quickly. It is also the point at which you know least: no construction progress, sometimes no published sizes, and a handover several years out. Both things are true at once, and the trade depends on your tolerance for that, not on urgency created by a sales floor.
We will tell you when a genuine new townhouse phase opens for sale, with the price and plan attached, rather than when a portal relabels old stock.
