About City Walk

City Walk is Meraas's low-rise, open-street district sitting roughly two kilometres from DIFC and four from Downtown Dubai. It's the closest thing Dubai has to a European-style urban neighbourhood — walkable retail, mid-rise residential, and a genuine street grid rather than a podium-and-tower formula. Our take: this is one of the most coherently planned mixed-use addresses in the city, and it's still mid-build. Buyers who get in now, before the Crestlane phases complete in 2028–2030, are likely to look back on this window as the obvious entry point.

Frequently asked questions about City Walk

Is City Walk a freehold community?
City Walk is part of Dubai's freehold framework — international buyers can take 100% ownership with full title registered at the Dubai Land Department. Purchases above AED 2 million qualify for the 10-year UAE Golden Visa. Properties below AED 750,000 may also qualify the buyer for a 2-year residence visa.
Can foreigners buy property in City Walk?
Yes. City Walk sits within Dubai's freehold zones, where international buyers take perpetual 100% ownership with title registered at the Dubai Land Department. No UAE residency is required to buy, though purchases above AED 750,000 (2-year visa) or AED 2 million (10-year Golden Visa) entitle owners to apply for residence.
What payment plans are available in City Walk?
Most off-plan projects in City Walk offer staged payment plans tied to construction milestones — typically a 10–20% deposit at booking, instalments through the build, and a balance on handover (commonly 60/40 or 70/30 splits). Some developers also offer post-handover payment plans of 1–3 years. Each project page above lists its specific plan.
What fees should I expect when buying in City Walk?
Standard one-time costs for any Dubai property purchase: 4% Dubai Land Department transfer fee, AED 4,000 DLD admin fee, 2% real estate agent commission, AED 4,000 trustee/registration fee, and a mortgage registration fee of 0.25% of the loan amount if you're financing. Budget an additional 6–8% of the purchase price for fees in total.
