PROJECT DESCRIPTION
OVERVIEW
LOCATION & TRANSPORT
Haven by Aldar is situated within Dubailand, which forms part of Dubai's western residential expansion corridor. The site lies adjacent to Dubailand Residence Complex, The Villa community and Academic City. The location provides direct access to Emirates Road E611, one of the primary orbital highways connecting the outer districts of Dubai. Through this corridor, the community connects to other strategic transport routes including Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road E311 and Al Ain Road E66.
AMENITIES & SURROUNDING
The surrounding area contains a mixture of residential communities, education campuses and leisure destinations that contribute to Haven's local infrastructure environment. Nearby attractions include IMG Worlds of Adventure located around 5.7 kilometres from the community and Global Village located approximately 7.1 kilometres away. These destinations represent major seasonal entertainment and tourism facilities within the Dubailand district. Several community hubs and green spaces also exist within close range. Examples include the DRC South Community Hub and additional green areas in nearby residential projects.
MARKET
The Haven master plan includes several internal sub communities that divide the overall development into themed residential districts. These include Falls at Haven, Ferns at Haven, Glade at Haven, Oasis at Haven, Sanctuary at Haven, Serenity at Haven and Tranquillity at Haven. Each cluster is designed as a residential enclave containing villas or townhouses arranged around landscaped streets, shared recreation areas and community facilities. The primary residential typologies consist of three and four bedroom townhouses and a range of larger standalone villas. Villa configurations extend from three bedroom layouts through to six bedroom formats designed for larger households. Individual residential plots vary in size depending on property type and community location. Early transaction records from the Dubai Land Department indicate villa sizes around 1,800 square feet for some entry level three bedroom properties, with larger villa plots considerably exceeding that figure.

Method
- Handover
- The date the unit is handed over, set in quarters from purchase. Gross rent, the vacancy allowance, maintenance and management, and the service charge all start there and not before — an unbuilt unit cannot be let and is not billed. The year handover falls in gets the exact fraction it is entitled to, not a rounded whole year. Capital growth is not treated this way: it compounds from today across the whole hold, because an off-plan unit can be sold before it completes. Where the holding period ends before handover, there is no operating income anywhere in the schedule and the whole return is capital movement less costs.
- Gross yield
- Gross annual rent ÷ purchase price. Before every cost. Where handover is in the future this is a stabilised full year from handover — a rate on the price, not a figure reduced by the construction period. The schedule shows what each year actually books.
- Net yield
- (Rent collected after the vacancy allowance − maintenance and management − service charge) ÷ purchase price. Stabilised on the same basis as the gross yield.
- Rent growth
- Compound annual movement in gross rent, applied from handover and stepping at each anniversary of it, which is when a tenancy renews. It may be negative. It does not touch the service charge, which is held flat in nominal terms.
- ROI
- Total profit over the whole hold ÷ total cash invested (price + all acquisition costs). Unlevered. Not an annual rate.
- ROE
- Total profit over the whole hold ÷ equity contributed (deposit + all acquisition and finance costs), after debt service. Levered. Not an annual rate.
- Cash-on-cash return
- Year-one operating cash flow, after debt service where there is a mortgage, ÷ cash invested. Reported separately from ROI/ROE and never merged with it. Year one means the first year of the schedule as it stands: where that year falls before handover it carries no rent, so on a mortgaged off-plan purchase the figure is negative — that is the year you fund out of pocket, and it is shown rather than smoothed away.
- IRR
- The annualised rate that discounts the dated cash-flow schedule above to a net present value of zero, solved numerically. Where the schedule has no sign change, or the solver does not converge on a single meaningful rate, we print “—” rather than substitute a simpler annualised-return figure.
An illustrative model, not a forecast, a valuation, an offer or investment advice. Every figure is generated from the assumptions on this page — some yours, the rest stated defaults, not promises. Rents, service charges, fees, vacancy, handover dates, financing terms and sale prices vary by unit and over time; past prices are not a guide to future prices. Returns are not guaranteed and capital is at risk.
Mortgage availability, loan-to-value, rate and term are subject to lender criteria and underwriting; nothing here indicates that finance will be offered. Figures exclude any tax payable in your country of residence — take independent financial, tax and legal advice before committing.
