DHG Properties Hits Major Sales Milestone for Helvetia Residences in Dubai

Alphabeta Properties unveiled its latest flagship development, Q-East. This project is poised to transform Al Quoz—an area known for its industrial and creative roots—by introducing a contemporary, upscale community that seamlessly blends luxury, innovation, and community-focused design.

More than just a real estate venture, Q-East represents a bold vision to redefine Al Quoz’s landscape. Offering a diverse range of residential, commercial, and retail spaces, each crafted to the highest modern living standards, the development includes everything from opulent penthouses to cutting-edge commercial spaces and distinctive retail outlets. Q-East is set to establish a new standard for real estate in the area.

“Al Quoz is on the brink of a transformation, and Q-East is leading the charge,” said Abdulla Al Shaibani, founder of Alphabeta Properties. “With this development, we are not only redefining the real estate offerings in Al Quoz but also contributing to the evolution of Dubai’s urban landscape. Q-East is a testament to our commitment to innovation, quality, and community.”

Q-East is designed to offer a unique lifestyle experience, with 12 distinct concepts already confirmed, including a cutting-edge fitness and wellness center, a luxury cinema, a boutique bistro, and an immersive Japanese dining experience. Additionally, the project will feature a vibrant food hall, an arcade, a podcast recording studio, and a large event hall, ensuring there’s something for everyone.

One of the most anticipated elements of Q-East is the auction of 17 luxury penthouses available for rent. This event will build on the remarkable success of Alphabeta Properties’ previous auction of apartments in their prestigious M77 residential complex in Meydan. Each penthouse at Q-East will feature a private pool and is designed to offer unmatched exclusivity. This event, set to coincide with the grand opening, is expected to attract significant attention from high-end buyers across the region, reinforcing Q-East’s position as a premier destination for luxury living in Dubai.

As Alphabeta Properties prepares to deliver the first phase of Q-East by Q4 2024, the excitement is palpable. With 83% of the retail units already booked, it’s clear that Q-East is set to become a vibrant, thriving community and a key player in the ongoing transformation of Al Quoz.

Red Sea Global (RSG), the developer behind the regenerative tourism projects The Red Sea and AMAALA, has been awarded six new LEED certifications for properties at The Red Sea, further reinforcing its leadership in creating sustainable and energy-efficient buildings. In addition, RSG has achieved LEED for Cities and Communities pre-certification for the AMAALA masterplan.

“We were determined to redefine industry standards from the outset. To ensure we deliver on this ambition, our development and delivery teams work hand in hand with our sustainability team at every stage, scrutinizing design plans and collaborating during the build process, resulting in high quality, low-impact properties,” said John Pagano, Group CEO at Red Sea Global.

The seven latest certifications RSG achieved are:

To achieve LEED certification, each building incorporates a range of sustainability features including passive design techniques, energy-efficient technologies, sustainable material selection, water conservation strategies, building management systems, and treated sewage effluent for irrigation.

Peter Templeton, CEO at the US Green Building Council (USGBC), said: “Achieving LEED certification is more than just implementing sustainable practices. It represents a commitment to making the world a better place and influencing others to do better. Given the extraordinary importance of climate protection and the central role buildings play in that effort, Red Sea Global is creating a path forward through their LEED certification.”

All six properties newly certified at The Red Sea are connected to the destination’s renewable infrastructure and operate entirely on solar energy. Across Phase One of the development alone, this will avoid the equivalent of 575,000t of carbon dioxide being emitted into the atmosphere per year. This is equal to removing more than 133,000 cars from the road for one year or powering 75,000 homes. AMAALA will be powered the same way and will avoid 350,000tCO2eq per year across Phase One of its development.

Further, Red Sea International Airport (RSI) is the only airport across the Gulf Cooperation Council countries powered by sunlight 24 hours a day.

When it opened last year, Six Senses Southern Dunes, The Red Sea, became the first hotel in Saudi Arabia to achieve LEED Platinum status. In July 2024, the US Green Building Council included Red Sea Global in its 2024 LEED Power Builders, a recognition awarded to developers and builders that have exhibited an outstanding commitment to LEED and residential green building. RSG is the only developer outside the US to have made that list.

LEED v4.1 Building Design + Construction is a global benchmark in energy and environmental design. Achieving the certification is the foundation for other accreditations, such as LEED Zero, a complement to LEED that verifies the achievement of net zero goals in buildings during operation and maintenance.

The Red Sea welcomed its first guests last year, with three of its hotels now open. Shebara and Desert Rock will welcome first guests later this year, while Shura Island is on track to welcome guests in 2025. RSI, which is situated within three hours’ flying time of 250 million people and eight hours’ flying time for 8% of the world’s population, has been receiving a regular schedule of domestic flights since September 2023. International flights began in April 2024, with a twice-weekly route between The Red Sea and Dubai International.

A second destination, Thuwal Private Retreat, located further south will open in the coming weeks. AMAALA remains on track to welcome first guests in 2025, when the first eight resorts complete as part of Triple Bay phase one, along with Corallium Marine Life Institute and the iconic Yacht Club.

JVC has seen a remarkable rise in property transactions, with over 10,828 deals amounting to AED 12.8 billion recorded in 2024.

SkyHills 2 is positioned to capitalize on this growth, offering investors an opportunity to be part of JVC’s rapidly expanding community.

SkyHills 2 offers fully-furnished apartments and is equipped with a comprehensive range of amenities aimed at enhancing the lifestyle of its residents and adding value to the community.

Aldar Properties and Mubadala Investment Company have expanded their long-standing strategic partnership by establishing a series of joint ventures to manage and own assets across Abu Dhabi, with a combined value exceeding AED 30 billion. This collaboration aims to enhance value for both entities while driving the continued transformation and growth of Abu Dhabi as a premier global business and lifestyle hub.

The partnership was inaugurated by His Highness Sheikh Khaled bin Mohamed bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Crown Prince of Abu Dhabi and Chairman of the Abu Dhabi Executive Council. He emphasized the importance of public-private partnerships in advancing Abu Dhabi’s transformation, fostering sustainable economic growth, and highlighting the emirate’s investment opportunities within its business-friendly and innovation-driven economy.

The partnership, which utilizes Mubadala’s land bank and institutional expertise and Aldar’s strength in development and asset management, will be owned 60:40 by Aldar and Mubadala respectively. The four joint ventures will create substantial value for Abu Dhabi through a worldclass retail platform to consolidate the emirate’s premium shopping destinations, the acquisition of sustainable mature residential and commercial income-generating assets in Masdar City, the development of strategically located islands adjacent to Saadiyat Island and Yas Island, and the creation of a logistics park close to Zayed International Airport.

The parties aim to finalize and complete the transactions within the coming months, subject to final due diligence.

Talal Al Dhiyebi, Group Chief Executive Officer of Aldar, said: “This deal represents the continued evolution of our strategic partnership with Mubadala, with the latest collaboration designed to create substantial value for both parties by combining Aldar’s expertise in real estate asset management and development, and Mubadala’s portfolio of high-quality income-generating assets and land bank. We expect these opportunities to deliver attractive returns for our shareholders and to make a notable contribution to Abu Dhabi’s development as a premier international business and lifestyle destination.”

Dr Bakheet Al Katheeri, Chief Executive Officer of UAE Investments Platform at Mubadala, said: “Mubadala welcomes the expansion of its longstanding partnership with Aldar through these strategic joint ventures. Capitalizing on Aldar’s position as the national real estate champion with a proven track record in development and active asset management, along with Mubadala’s portfolio of prime land and established income-generating assets, this collaboration, once concluded, is expected to unlock significant value creation opportunities. This strategic partnership aims to optimize asset utilization, drive long-term returns, and continue to position Abu Dhabi as the global premier business and lifestyle destination.”

The agreements will build on Mubadala and Aldar’s longstanding partnership. Following Aldar’s acquisition of the four Abu Dhabi Global Market towers from Mubadala in 2022, a joint venture was created between both parties to acquire Al Maryah Tower and develop further Grade A commercial space across Abu Dhabi’s international financial center.

Creation of a premium retail platform in Abu Dhabi

Through the partnership, Mubadala and Aldar will create an AED 9 billion retail platform that will own Abu Dhabi’s existing premier retail destinations. Aldar will include its flagship retail destination, Yas Mall, while Mubadala will contribute The Galleria Luxury Collection, a luxury retail experience at Abu Dhabi Global Market, Al Maryah Island.

The new platform is expected to provide substantial synergies for the underlying assets through a coordinated retail strategy that will leverage its scale to attract new luxury brands to Abu Dhabi and provide customers with world class retail experiences.

The transaction provides diversification benefits for both parties and significant revenue upside from active asset management provided by Aldar, which has an excellent track record in retail value creation and will own a majority stake in the platform. The Galleria Luxury Collection is also located within the financial district, providing additional synergies for Aldar, having acquired the four adjacent ADGM towers in 2022. Occupancy at the towers now stands at 95%.

Joint ownership of income generating assets at Masdar City

In addition, Mubadala and Aldar intend to establish a joint venture to own AED 3 billion worth of income-generating real estate assets at Masdar City, Abu Dhabi’s sustainable urban community and free zone hub.

The joint venture, once finalized, will include existing income-generating commercial and residential properties totaling more than 400,000 square meters of net leasable area (NLA) with overall occupancy currently standing at more than 95 per cent. The partners will own the 14 assets within the Masdar City Green REIT, with all buildings LEED Gold or LEED Platinum certified, as well as three further assets within the masterplan. In addition, two assets under construction, with a further 50,000 square meters of NLA, are intended to be contributed to the joint venture once completed.

Development of luxury waterfront communities in prime Abu Dhabi locations

Leveraging Mubadala’s portfolio of prime land across Abu Dhabi, the companies aim to masterplan and develop wellness-focused luxury waterfront communities through a joint venture for two undeveloped islands that sit off the coasts of Saadiyat Island and Yas Island. The combined gross development value of the projects stands at AED 13 billion.

The first island sits between Saadiyat Marina and Reem Island along 3km of waterfront. The site, which will be acquired from Mubadala by the joint venture, complements Aldar’s luxury living offering in Saadiyat Cultural District. The joint venture will also acquire a 3.7 million square meter island that sits between Yas Island and Al Raha from Mubadala and will be developed as a premium waterfront villa community.

Development of a landmark logistics park

Mubadala and Aldar are also seeking to develop an AED 5 billion Grade A industrial logistics park in Al Falah with a gross floor area of 1.2 million square meters. The development is strategically located within a 2km radius of Zayed International Airport with easy access to a number of major highways.
