Khalifa City off-plan prices, November 2026

Apartments: a median of AED 1,312 per sqft from 112 sales, counting developer sales, last 6 months; half of those sales fell between AED 1,090 and AED 1,507 per sqft; down 4.7% since October 2026.

Villas and townhouses: a median of AED 1,379 per sqft from 49 sales, counting developer sales, last 6 months; half of those sales fell between AED 1,227 and AED 1,460 per sqft; no like-for-like figure for October 2026 to compare with.

These are prices paid, not prices asked: sales registered as bought from the developer, as recorded by the Abu Dhabi Real Estate Centre (ADREC).

Apartments: a gross yield of 7.5%, ADREC's average annual rent against its average sale price, Q3 2026, the median across 3 layouts, each confirmed by the register's finished-home sales, from 6.5% to 8.2% by layout. Averages, not medians, so a few large sales can move a layout; the middle layout is the figure.

Villas and townhouses: a gross yield of 4.9%, ADREC's average annual rent against its average sale price, Q3 2026, the median across 5 layouts, from 2.8% to 8.1% by layout. Averages, not medians, so a few large sales can move a layout; the middle layout is the figure.

Gross means a year's rent over the price, before service charges, fees and empty periods: our arithmetic on ADREC's figures, not a promise of what a home will earn.

Asking prices for the 12 off-plan projects we list here run from AED 1,142 to AED 1,909 per sqft, some of them our own estimates from the starting price and the smallest home, marked as such.

Of the 6 with their own sales in the register, 1 sits more than 5% above the median, 2 within 5% of it, and 3 more than 5% below.

Highest above the median: Bab Al Qasr Garden Residence 65 (+7%).

Furthest below it: Reportage Village Abu Dhabi (-42%), Royal Park at Masdar City (-11%) and Bab Al Qasr Resort Residence 19 (-7%).

A gap is a project's median registered price per sqft (its own developer sales, or the developer's asking price where the register has too few) against the median paid for the same kind of home in the same area.

5 changes among the projects we list in Khalifa City in the last 31 days, newest first.

The figure chosen each month by the same rule, so the months compare: ADREC's like-for-like sales over six months when there are at least 30, otherwise twelve, otherwise every sale over twelve.

Months before October 2026 were counted under earlier rules (since then: freehold sales only, and no one project allowed to dominate the figure), so they do not compare with the months after.

Registered sales come from ADREC / DARI and are read again each month; this page is as of November 2026. The median is the middle sale, which a handful of very large or very small homes cannot pull the way an average can.

The figure shown counts sales registered as bought from the developer over the last six months when there are at least 30 of them, otherwise the last twelve, otherwise every sale over twelve months; below 30 sales there is no figure at all. Apartments and villas are kept apart because they do not sell at the same price per sqft.

Rents come from ADREC's published quarterly averages of annual rent and sale price by layout; the yield is the median, across the layouts that carry both, of the ratio each pair implies. ADREC publishes averages and no counts, so a layout with a few large sales can move, and the figure is dated by its quarter.

We list a selected set of off-plan projects in Khalifa City, not every project there. Asking prices and handover dates are the developers' own and change without notice; a price per sqft we estimated is labelled as an estimate and is never compared with registered sales. Nothing on this page is investment advice.
