## Overview

Ellington Properties is a private Dubai developer led by its co-founders: Robert Booth (managing director), Joseph Thomas and Elie Naaman. It describes itself as a design-led developer, and that is a fair summary of how it competes. It sells on architecture, interiors and shared spaces more than on price, runs its own art foundation, and tends to build on plots inside other developers' master communities instead of creating its own.

Its website lists projects across a wide spread of Dubai districts, including Dubai Hills Estate, Jumeirah Village Circle, Mohammed Bin Rashid City, Palm Jumeirah, Business Bay, Downtown Dubai, Jumeirah Lakes Towers, Dubai Islands and Arjan. In Ras Al Khaimah it lists several projects, among them Soto Grande, Costa Mare and Cala Del Mar. Enquiry bands on the site run from AED 1 million to more than AED 5 million.

Recent activity shows both delivery and expansion. In May 2026 it began handing over Ellington House II in Dubai Hills Estate and Arbor View, its first completed building in Arjan, with Ellington House III and IV described as progressing. In February 2026 it announced The Meriva Collection on Dubai Islands, its first hospitality-led scheme, with five residential buildings and a hotel. In June it launched Everly Place, 209 homes at Meydan Horizon in MBR City, and in October it unveiled a commercial tower in Business Bay valued at USD 762 million.

The company says homes in the completed Ellington House I were renting about 28% above the market average in spring 2026. That is its own figure, and it supports the view that its design commands a premium, at least on rents in that building.

Ellington does not publish a standard payment plan and was running a summer promotion on selected projects in 2026. Take the schedule from the sales offer for the specific building.

## Strengths

- Consistent design identity across buildings, with completed examples to visit in Dubai Hills Estate and Arjan.
- Handovers continued through the 2026 downturn: Ellington House II and Arbor View began handover in May 2026.
- Builds on plots inside established master communities such as Dubai Hills Estate, so the surrounding infrastructure already exists.
- The company reports rents at Ellington House I about 28% above the market average (its own figure, spring 2026).

## Considerations for buyers

- Buyers pay a premium for design. Whether resale buyers and tenants keep paying it depends on how well the building is maintained, so check the service charge and the management arrangements.
- Its website lists about 60 projects across some 17 Dubai districts and Ras Al Khaimah. That is a lot of concurrent work for a developer that presents itself as boutique.
- It is moving into new product types in 2026: a hospitality-led beachfront scheme on Dubai Islands and a USD 762 million commercial tower. Neither is what its record was built on.
- Ras Al Khaimah is a much smaller and less liquid market than Dubai. Treat projects there as longer-term holdings.
- Ellington is private. We found no published accounts, credit rating or independent data comparing its handover dates with those promised.
- Because it builds within other developers' communities, the master developer controls the roads, parks and neighbouring plots.
