Overview

A tower of 479 homes with townhouses in Green Gate, Dubai Creek Harbour, launched by Emaar in June 2025 for Q3 2029. Emaar listed 23 units from AED 1,813,888 on 13 November 2026, the most in the quarter.

Albero is a residential tower with townhouses in the Green Gate quarter of Dubai Creek Harbour by Emaar, a sister building to Altan. Sales opened in June 2025, and Property Finder gives expected completion in September 2029. Property Finder's FAQ puts the total at 479 homes. Emaar describes canal-side and golf-course outlooks, with a community park, a sports park and a neighbourhood plaza beside the tower.

The mix is one- to three-bedroom apartments and three-bedroom townhouses with roof terraces. Property Finder's FAQ gives one-bedroom units of 754 to 770 sq ft from AED 1.8 million, two-bedroom units of 1,179 to 1,455 sq ft from AED 3.3 million, three-bedroom apartments of about 1,847 sq ft from AED 4.2 million, and townhouses of 4,080 to 4,165 sq ft from AED 7 million. On 13 November 2026 Emaar's inventory showed 23 units available from AED 1,813,888, with sizes of 757 to 4,166 sq ft, so townhouses as well as apartments were still on offer.

Property Finder lists two plans: 10% on booking, 70% during construction and 20% on handover, or 10% on booking and 90% in eight instalments during construction.

Who it suits: buyers who want choice, from a one-bedroom investment unit to a townhouse with its own roof terrace, in one Emaar building. What to weigh: Albero and Altan share a site and a handover year, and the wider Green Gate quarter adds more 2029 completions. Townhouses at about AED 7 million sit in a price band where buyers can also consider villas in Emaar's suburban communities.

Buying costs

Government fees are paid on top of the purchase price. This is the position for the entry-level home; costs scale with price. In Dubai the registration authority is the DLD.

Purchase priceEntry 1-bedroom apartment at AlberoAED 1,813,888
DLD transfer fee (4%)Paid to the Dubai Land Department on registration. The department lists it as 2% from each party, but contracts almost always pass the full 4% to the buyer, so a developer's '50% DLD waiver' means the developer is paying its own listed half. Off-plan, it is paid when the sale is registered in the Oqood system.AED 72,556
Oqood registration admin feeOqood portal fee of AED 1,000 plus knowledge and innovation fees, for registering the off-plan sale contract.AED 1,020
Estimated total to completeAED 1,887,464about £387K

Developers may add their own administration charge on off-plan sales. It is set by the developer, not the land department, so it is not included in this estimate: ask for it in writing before you reserve. Adjust the assumptions in the buying cost calculator.
