About Tilal Al Ghaf

Tilal Al Ghaf is Majid Al Futtaim's flagship master-planned community in Dubai, built around a 70,000 sqm lagoon and roughly 11 kilometres of beachfront and waterway. It sits in the Hessa Street corridor, roughly midway between Motor City and Arabian Ranches. The community skews heavily towards villas and townhouses — there's very little apartment stock here — which makes it one of the more genuinely residential addresses to emerge in Dubai over the past five years. Our view: this is a long-term hold community, not a quick-flip play, and buyers who got in early are already sitting on meaningful paper gains.

Frequently asked questions about Tilal Al Ghaf

Is Tilal Al Ghaf a freehold community?
Tilal Al Ghaf 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 Tilal Al Ghaf?
Yes. Tilal Al Ghaf 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 Tilal Al Ghaf?
Most off-plan projects in Tilal Al Ghaf 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 Tilal Al Ghaf?
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.
