Arabian Ranches 3 by Emaar, off Emirates Road

Arabian Ranches 3 at a glance

Between Emirates Road and Academic Road: where Arabian Ranches 3 sits

Emaar announced Arabian Ranches 3 on 25 February 2019 as an extension next to the original Arabian Ranches (Arabian Business). At the groundbreaking, Khaleej Times placed the site between Emirates Road and Sheikh Zayed Bin Hamdan Al Nahyan Street (21 May 2019); Emaar's pages now point to Academic Road and Emirates Road. The DLD files the clusters under Wadi Al Safa 5, the district it also uses for Aldar's Haven and Athlon.

Gulf News put Global Village and the Sheikh Hamdan Sports Centre five minutes away, and Downtown Dubai and both airports about half an hour by car (25 February 2019). Emaar lists Arabian Ranches I and II as steps away.

From Sun and Joy to May: the clusters and their home types

Khaleej Times named Sun and Joy as the first two neighbourhoods (21 May 2019). Home types as Emaar states them, read on 11 November 2026:

Emaar's 2019 plan centred on a park of more than 30,000 square metres with a cricket pitch and skate park, a 4 km boulevard, a lazy river, a clubhouse, a mosque and a link to the Al Qudra Cycling Track (Gulf News and Arabian Business, 25 February 2019).

Which Arabian Ranches 3 clusters are finished: the DLD record

These are the only Arabian Ranches 3 files in the DLD data NAHY uses, which keeps projects with at least 50 sales from October 2025 to September 2026, and Emaar's pages give no handover date for any cluster. Across the community only 28.3% of those 421 sales were off-plan, and the register counted 300 sales in 2026 up to 29 October against 207 in all of 2025. NAHY reads a cluster's DLD entry by project number before you agree a price, so you know whether you are buying a title deed or an Oqood.

No units counter on Emaar's page: how a purchase works now

On 11 November 2026 Emaar's Arabian Ranches III page showed May, Anya 2, Anya, Raya and Bliss 2 with no units-available count and no handover date, and NAHY found no Arabian Ranches 3 file among the DLD's 2026 registrations. Emaar has not published a sell-out statement that NAHY could find, so NAHY asks Emaar whether any home is still with the developer and works the owner market at the same time:

1. Finished clusters such as Raya and Anya: the title deed, any mortgage the seller must clear, and the DLD transfer.
2. A cluster not shown as finished: the Oqood, what the seller has paid Emaar and Emaar's no objection certificate.
3. Letting plans: the cluster and bedroom count against the leases below.

For price context, the community's DLD median was AED 1,785 per sq ft in September 2026, a month with 41 sales.

Renting in Arabian Ranches 3: leases by bedroom count

Ejari registered 1,669 rent contracts in Arabian Ranches 3 in the last 12 complete months of data, at a median of AED 175,000 a year: 974 three bedroom homes at AED 155,000, 625 four bedroom homes at AED 230,000 and 69 five bedroom homes at AED 325,000. Nearby, the first Arabian Ranches had 1,222 contracts at a median of AED 250,000 and Arabian Ranches II 655 at AED 245,000.

An investor here buys a built family home with a rent record behind it, not a construction schedule. NAHY quotes no return; investors who message +971 55 650 7737 get the leases for the cluster and bedroom count they are weighing.

Other Emaar villa phases, and Aldar in Wadi Al Safa 5

A sales count below the unit count is not a stock list, so NAHY confirms each option with its developer first.

Arabian Ranches 3: questions buyers ask

Where is Arabian Ranches 3 located?

In Dubai, between Emirates Road and Sheikh Zayed Bin Hamdan Al Nahyan Street (Khaleej Times, 21 May 2019), steps from Arabian Ranches I and II by Emaar's description. The DLD land district is Wadi Al Safa 5.

Both. Most clusters are 3 and 4 bedroom townhouses, such as Spring, Anya and May; Caya 2 has standalone villas of 3 to 5 bedrooms and Elie Saab detached villas of 4 and 5 bedrooms.

Has Arabian Ranches 3 been handed over?

Raya and Anya are finished in the DLD register (30 June and 31 October 2026), and 71.7% of the community's sales from October 2025 to September 2026 were ready homes. Emaar gives no cluster dates; 1,669 Ejari leases in the last 12 months of data show homes in use.

Can I still buy an Arabian Ranches 3 townhouse from Emaar?

Emaar's page showed no units-available count on 11 November 2026, and NAHY found no sell-out statement either. NAHY asks Emaar and finds owner resales on WhatsApp at +971 55 650 7737.
