Overview

A 20-storey tower of 195 apartments in Dubai Hills Estate, launched by Emaar in November 2025 for Q2 2029. Emaar listed 27 units from AED 1,743,888 on 13 November 2026, the most of any current Dubai Hills release.

Greencrest is a 20-storey residential tower of 195 apartments in Dubai Hills Estate, the 2,700-acre master community Emaar built around Dubai Hills Park, an 18-hole golf course and Dubai Hills Mall. Bookings opened in November 2025 and Property Finder gives expected completion in June 2029.

The tower has one-, two- and three-bedroom apartments. Property Finder lists one-bedroom units of 832 to 847 sq ft from about AED 1.7 million, two-bedroom units of 1,404 to 1,440 sq ft from AED 3.3 million and three-bedroom units of about 1,877 sq ft from AED 4.4 million. Emaar's launch price was AED 1.57 million. Its inventory on 13 November 2026 showed 27 units available from AED 1,743,888, across sizes of 832 to 1,878 sq ft, so all three types were still on offer. Facilities include indoor and outdoor pools, a gym, gardens, a play area and jogging and cycling tracks.

The plan on Property Finder is 10% on booking, 70% during construction and 20% on handover.

Who it suits: buyers who want a new apartment in Dubai Hills Estate at the lower end of the community's price range, with a full choice of layouts. What to weigh: Dubai Hills has a steady pipeline of Emaar apartment towers due between 2027 and 2029, so expect competition when renting or reselling. Property Finder labels Greencrest sold out, which conflicts with Emaar's inventory.

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 GreencrestAED 1,743,888
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 69,756
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 1,814,664about £372K

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.
