Is Arabian Ranches 3 a good investment?
Short answer
That depends on your goals and timeline, and this page is not financial advice. Here is what the record shows. In the 12 months to 30 September 2026, 243 completed homes resold in AR3 at a median of AED 3,775,000; the median price per square foot, AED 1,828, was 6% lower than a year earlier. In 2025 the register shows 492 sales: 256 resales of finished homes and 236 off-plan purchases. A property bought for AED 2 million or more lets the investor apply for a 10-year renewable residence permit (Golden Visa). For rents and yields in a specific cluster, ask Mohamed.
