Three NAS buildings in Arjan: Rabdan's handover record
Rabdan's site lists two buildings as delivered in 2018, both in Arjan (DLD area Al Barsha South Third), and a third in handover:
- NAS 1: 72 apartments over seven floors, which Rabdan says are ready, not off-plan.
- NAS 2: 78 residences of one to three bedrooms on seven levels, labelled delivered and fully occupied.
- NAS 3: 284 residences on a ground floor, two podiums and twelve levels, targeted for Q2 2026; its page shows every construction stage at 100% and the label handover in progress (read 12 November 2026).
NAS 3 is not in NAHY's DLD file, which only holds projects with 50 or more sales between October 2025 and September 2026, so NAHY cannot compare its handover with the date declared to the DLD; the sale contract settles it. The transactions do include ready homes: of the 188 sales under developer 1533 in that period, 4.3% were not off-plan.
One name to keep apart: Rabdan's NAS buildings in Arjan have nothing to do with Nad Al Sheba Gardens, which the DLD registers to a different company, Nas Estates L.L.C.
Nine Rabdan projects and the dates each one carries
Rabdan publishes a quarter for each project, and three of its pages give two. The DLD figures are shown where NAHY has them:
| Project | Area | Homes (Rabdan) | Rabdan's date | DLD |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| NAS 1 | Arjan | 72 | Delivered 2018 | Not in NAHY's data |
| NAS 2 | Arjan | 78 | Delivered 2018 | Not in NAHY's data |
| NAS 3 | Arjan | 284 | Q2 2026, handover in progress | Not in NAHY's data |
| GHARBI I | Arjan | 168 | Q4 2026 | Not in NAHY's data |
| GHARBI II | JVC | 234 | Q2 2027 on its page, Q4 2027 on Rabdan's list | Not in NAHY's data |
| Rabdan Gates | Majan | 437 homes and 8 shops | Q2 2028 | 445 units, 5.18% built, 30 June 2028 |
| Rabdan Gardens | Jumeirah Garden City | 90 | Q1 2028, and Q4 2027 in its payment section | 90 units, 0.02% built, 1 March 2028 |
| Rabdan Square | Meydan | 33 | Q4 2027 in its payment section; marked launching soon | 36 units, registered 26 March 2026 |
| Rabdan Avenue | Meydan | 147 | Q1 2028, and Q2 2029 in its payment section and list | 148 units, registered 14 September 2026 |
Where Rabdan gives two dates, NAHY relies on the one declared to the DLD, the date on the buyer's Oqood. Neither project with a DLD date had passed it by 29 October 2026.

Rabdan Gates and Rabdan Gardens in the DLD data
Rabdan Gates is filed under Rabdan Real Estate Development L.L.C as project 3587 in Majan (DLD area Wadi Al Safa 3), registered on 2 June 2025 with an Arab Bank escrow account. Rabdan's 437 apartments and 8 retail outlets add up to exactly the 445 units in the register. By 29 October 2026 the DLD held 434 transactions on those units; the 126 from October 2025 to September 2026 put it tenth of 21 Majan projects in NAHY's DLD data.
Rabdan Gardens has a company of its own, Rabdan Gardens Real Estate Developments L.L.C, and its escrow is with Dubai Islamic Bank. It had 81 transactions on 90 apartments in Jumeirah Garden City by 29 October 2026. A buyer there should see that company on the contract and that escrow account on every payment.
Ready in Arjan or off-plan in Meydan: two ways to buy Rabdan
- A finished home. NAS 1 and NAS 2 are delivered, NAS 2 is fully occupied by Rabdan's account and NAS 3 is in handover. NAHY asks Rabdan whether it still holds any unit in the three buildings, looks for owner resales, tenanted or vacant, and checks the title deed, the service charge record and any tenancy before you offer.
- An off-plan home. Rabdan Gates, GHARBI I, GHARBI II, Rabdan Gardens, Rabdan Square and Rabdan Avenue are off-plan. NAHY asks Rabdan which units it can allocate, reads the project number and escrow account from the contract, and compares Rabdan's quarter with the DLD date before you pay.
