Original analysis of the Abu Dhabi property market by Yeldar Nurmukanov, founder of Astana Real Estate. Official data is cited to its source; our own reading of it is labelled as opinion.
Reem spent a decade as an isolated cluster of towers. It is turning into a complete waterfront destination — and the pricing has not fully caught up with what is being built there.
Fahid sits between Saadiyat and Yas and already ranks among the four districts absorbing most of Abu Dhabi's off-plan apartment money. Here is what is confirmed, and what is still a bet.
Transport infrastructure moves property prices — but not everywhere, not evenly, and not always after you buy. A framework for testing whether a rail story is worth paying for.
Two very different answers to the same question — a villa in Abu Dhabi surrounded by nature. Why one of them gets marketed far harder than the other, and how to compare them properly.
Marsa is the last large-scale masterplan on Saadiyat Island, and the case for it is genuinely strong. But the launch itself is not the only way to own the upside — and often not the cheapest.
Four ways to buy the same island, with four different risk profiles. A decision framework for choosing between a launch allocation, an assignment, a near-handover unit and ready stock.
Not a blacklist. These are the five risks I actually model before recommending an off-plan purchase in Abu Dhabi — and the conditions under which each of them stops mattering.
AED 117 billion transacted in six months, 89% of residential value off-plan, apartment prices up 20%, and a rent freeze from June. What ADREC's half-year report says, and how we read it.
Tell us the objective — yield, a home, or residency — and we will come back with a shortlist and the numbers behind it.
