The capital of the UAE is famous for elite complexes with villas located away from the hustle and bustle of the city. These projects with a measured lifestyle are distinguished by a secluded location and provide residents with the maximum level of comfort with premium amenities. Residents enjoy access to white sand beaches, private pools, extensive green areas, sports and recreation areas and outdoor cinemas. These modern houses are in no way inferior to luxury villas in Dubai in terms of construction quality.
Abu Dhabi’s real estate market is showing impressive growth, offering a wide range of villas for investment. There are more than 4,000 houses of various types on our portal, which allows future owners to choose an object taking into account their budget, space requirements, number of bedrooms, availability of a private garden and pool, proximity to the sea and other preferences.
Both furnished and unfurnished options are available for purchase. Houses with 2-10 bedrooms are available with an average cost from 2.3 million AED ($626,000) to 9.3 million AED ($2.5 million). The price of exclusive properties reaches 45 million AED ($12.25 million). At the same time, prices in the emirate are favorable – real estate in Dubai and other megacities of the world often costs more.
Possible areas for purchase
Until 2019, foreigners could only own real estate in the UAE capital on a long-term lease. In the neighboring emirate, changes in legislation were adopted earlier, and villas and apartments in Dubai became available to expats in full ownership since 2002. Currently, foreigners in Abu Dhabi are allowed to buy real estate in 9 districts. The most popular locations are:
