Golf Trails
by Emaar

Emaar Golf Trails is a newly registered off-plan residential project by Emaar Properties within the Emaar South master community in Dubai South. It was registered with the Dubai Land Department on 7 July 2026 under project number 4523 — making it one of the most recently launched Emaar projects available. The project comprises 161 residences including 1, 2 and 3-bedroom apartments and 3-bedroom townhouses, all positioned around the 18-hole championship golf course at Emaar South. Construction is scheduled to begin 9 November 2026, with handover targeted at Q4 2030.

All four are Emaar projects in the same Emaar South golf community and share the same 18-hole championship golf course, community management, and Emaar South master community infrastructure. Golf Trails is the most recently launched (July 2026), meaning buyers are entering the earliest phase of its construction cycle — typically the best entry pricing before construction appreciation. Golf Fields was launched earlier in 2026 and has a later handover (September 2030). Golf Vale and Golf Hills 2 are further along in their construction timelines. The choice between them depends primarily on unit type availability, exact golf frontage, and current launch pricing — contact our team for a side-by-side comparison.

Golf Trails follows an 80/20 plan: 10% on booking, then 70% in milestone instalments tied to construction progress from November 2026 through approximately Q3 2030, with the final 20% due at handover in Q4 2030. The milestone schedule is typically in tranches of approximately 10% each, linked to verified construction progress benchmarks. All instalments are interest-free and come directly from Emaar — no bank mortgage is required during the construction phase. The exact instalment dates are contractually confirmed in your Sales Purchase Agreement (SPA) at booking.

Yes on both counts. Emaar South is a designated freehold zone open to all nationalities — no UAE residency required. NRIs, Indian passport holders, and OCI cardholders can purchase with full title deed ownership rights. Payment can be made via SWIFT from NRE accounts. The 80/20 plan spreads payments over 4+ years, which makes annual cash outflow manageable within India's LRS scheme. For 3-bedroom units priced above AED 2M, purchases qualify for the UAE 10-year Golden Visa at handover when the title deed is issued.

Yes — the AED 128 billion expansion of Al Maktoum International Airport (DWC) was formally approved by Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum in April 2024. Phase one targets approximately 150 million passenger capacity by around 2032, with long-term projections for 260 million passengers — making it the world's largest airport by passenger volume when fully complete. This is a confirmed government infrastructure project, not speculative. Emaar South is 5 minutes by car from the airport. Historically, large-scale airport infrastructure has driven material residential price appreciation in surrounding communities globally — Dubai International Airport's development and the Dubai Marina area provide a local precedent.

Based on comparable completed Emaar South apartment projects as at 2026, gross rental yields of 7–10% have been achieved, driven by demand from aviation-sector employees at DWC, Expo City workers, and school families (GEMS Founders is 2 minutes from Emaar South). Golf-course facing units typically command a 15–20% rental premium over non-golf comparable units in the same community. At an AED 1.06M purchase price and a 7% gross yield, that implies approximately AED 74,200 annual rental income — indicative only, based on current comparable market data, not a guarantee of Golf Trails-specific future performance.
