Aldar’s Yas Island project in Abu Dhabi exceeds Dh800 million in sales

The “Yas Park Place” project has recorded a notable milestone in Abu Dhabi’s real estate market, as Aldar Properties announced today that 80% of the units released within the new residential development—featuring mid-rise buildings in the heart of Yas Island—have been sold, generating more than Dh800 million in sales.

This strong sales performance was supported by a series of promotional events organized by Aldar across Abu Dhabi, Dubai, London, Hong Kong, and Shanghai, attracting a wide range of investors.

Residents and international buyers accounted for 54% of total sales, driven by strong demand from investors in Jordan, China, Taiwan, and the United Kingdom. UAE nationals made up the remaining 46%, reflecting continued confidence in the Aldar brand among local investors.
