An escrow account is a regulated account the developer cannot draw on freely: your payments go in and are released as building progresses. Escrow accounts and project registrations are published by the Abu Dhabi Real Estate Centre (ADREC) on dari.ae. Always check them, and pay into the escrow account only, before handing over a deposit.

The Arthouse: questions buyers ask

How much does The Arthouse cost?
Prices at The Arthouse start from AED 3,300,000 (about $899K) for 1-bedroom, 2-bedroom and 3-bedroom homes, which is around AED 7,350 per sqft, estimated from the unit sizes. Asking prices come from the developer and change without notice.
When does The Arthouse hand over?
The Arthouse is expected to hand over in Q2 2028. The project is under construction. Handover dates are the developer's own estimate and off-plan projects can move, so confirm the current date in writing before you pay anything.
Who is the developer of The Arthouse?
The Arthouse is being developed by Aldar Properties. It sits in Saadiyat Grove, Abu Dhabi. You can see every project by Aldar Properties we list, and how their asking prices compare with registered sales, on their page.
Can foreigners buy at The Arthouse?
The Arthouse is in a freehold area, so buyers of any nationality can own a home here outright rather than on a lease. Abu Dhabi sets which zones are freehold; confirm the title type on your own unit's contract before paying.
Is The Arthouse registered and escrow-protected?
The Arthouse is registered with the Abu Dhabi Real Estate Centre (ADREC) under number 20240000278844. Every off-plan project must be registered and sell through an escrow account, where the money is released as building progresses. Check both at dari.ae before you pay.
