Empire Gardens in Dubai Land Residence Complex

Empire Gardens at a glance

105 sales to September, then 19 in October

Empire Gardens had 105 registered sales by 30 September 2026, which puts it 22nd by sales among the 38 DLRC projects in NAHY's file for October 2025 to September 2026. October then added 19 more up to the 29th. By NAHY's count, no other DLRC project registered since October 2025 recorded as many sales that month: Samana Boulevard Heights added 15, Sky Line by Peace Homes 12, and Nuve by Zoya and Cybele by Wadan none.

Resales of contracts count in the same total, so at least 97 of the 221 units had no registered sale at the end of October. The developer publishes no availability count that NAHY could find, and the register shows reservations only after they are filed, so NAHY checks availability directly before you choose a unit.

Who stands behind Empire Gardens Real Estate Development L.L.C

The DLD names the developer as Empire Gardens Real Estate Development L.L.C, a company that holds only this project, 221 units, in the developer data to 29 October 2026. NAHY found no page or press release from Empire Developments that names Empire Gardens, so this page does not credit the project to that brand.

What the record does show is how the Empire Developments group files its projects. Gulf News listed Empire Estates in Arjan, Empire Livings in Dubai Science Park and Empire Lakeviews in Liwan among the company's projects, with Kamran Ghani as chief executive (GN Focus, 28 October 2025). The DLD registers the first two under Empire Real Estate Developments L.L.C and Empire Lakeviews under a separate company, Empire Crown Real Estate Development L.L.C. That record does not link Empire Gardens to any group, so NAHY confirms the developer's identity from the sale contract before you pay.

What the register does not tell you yet

The DLD record gives the unit count, the project area of 15,171 square metres, the dates and the escrow bank. It does not give the unit mix, the number of floors, the sizes or the amenities, and NAHY has not found them in a developer or press source it can cite. Before you reserve, NAHY asks the developer in writing for:

• The home types and sizes still offered, with their floor plans
• The number of floors and the amenity list, as written into the sale contract
• The construction programme behind the declared completion of 31 December 2028, at 0.04% built

NAHY also checks that the Oqood names Empire Gardens Real Estate Development L.L.C and that payments go to the Emirates NBD escrow account in the register.

DLRC registrations of 2026 side by side

NAHY's DLD file, limited to projects that passed 50 sales between October 2025 and September 2026, holds five DLRC projects registered in 2026:

Wadan's Weston, registered on 7 August 2026 with 373 units, had fewer than 50 sales by September and is not in that data. For a buyer comparing DLRC launches, the declared completion dates in this table run from 28 June 2028 to 30 May 2030, almost two years apart.

DLRC for a buy-to-let investor, by the numbers

Buying Empire Gardens as an investment means buying into DLRC's rental market more than two years before the declared completion. DLRC registered 7,129 sales from October 2025 to September 2026, 90.4% off-plan, and 7,457 Ejari leases in the most recent 12 complete months, where the median rent came to AED 52,000 a year. With so much of that trading off-plan, many DLRC homes are still being built and will add to the rental supply in the same years. NAHY gives no yield for a project with no unit mix published.
