Facts last verified 12 November 2026 against the sources listed at the end. ## Key facts | Fact | Value | | --- | --- | | Legal name | IMKAN Properties | | Headquarters | Pixel, Makers District, Reem Island, Abu Dhabi | | Ownership | Privately held; a wholly owned subsidiary of Abu Dhabi Capital Group | | Website | https://www.imkan.ae | | Market segment | luxury | | Builds in | Abu Dhabi | | Developments covered | 0 | | Pixel | 525 apartments in 7 towers | | AlJurf | 370 hectares | ## Overview IMKAN is a wholly owned subsidiary of Abu Dhabi Capital Group, a private investment group. It describes a portfolio of 26 projects on three continents, including work in Morocco and Egypt, and is led by chief executive Suwaidan Al Dhaheri. It publishes no accounts. In the UAE it builds only in Abu Dhabi, and its projects are fewer and more distinctive than a volume developer's. Makers District on Reem Island is an urban waterfront quarter whose first residential piece, Pixel, has seven mixed-use towers with 525 apartments, offices and shops around a pedestrian plaza. Nudra is a small villa scheme on Saadiyat Island. AlJurf, at Ghantoot on the coast between Abu Dhabi and Dubai, is the large one: a 370-hectare second-home estate with a private marina and beach, reported in 2022 to have a budget of AED 15 billion. It is being released in villa phases (AlJurf Gardens, Naseem AlJurf, Kayan) and now includes SHA Residences, tied to the SHA wellness clinic brand. IMKAN's website marks Nudra, Makers Beach and Sheikha Fatima Park in Al Bateen as developed. Pixel is shown as sold out, and the company's own offices are in two of its towers. In September 2022 the developer said Pixel, Nudra and the first phase of AlJurf Gardens (293 villas) had all sold out, with AlJurf Gardens then expected to complete by mid-2023. Kayan's first phase is sold out and its page lists an anticipated completion in early 2026. We could not find public confirmation of exact handover dates against original targets for these projects, and the developer's website still labels Pixel and Makers District as under development. Payment plans at AlJurf are tied to construction milestones. Ask for the current milestone schedule and the registered completion date before reserving. ## Strengths - Owned by Abu Dhabi Capital Group, an established private Abu Dhabi investor, which gives it more financial depth than a stand-alone boutique developer. - Has finished schemes to inspect: Nudra on Saadiyat Island, Makers Beach on Reem Island and Sheikha Fatima Park are marked as developed, and its headquarters is inside Pixel. - Early phases have sold through: Pixel, Nudra and AlJurf Gardens phase one were reported sold out in 2022, and Kayan phase one since. - A small number of distinctive projects, an urban plaza quarter and a coastal villa estate, instead of repeated tower launches competing with each other. ## Considerations for buyers - Its delivered residential base is small, and we could not verify from public sources whether Pixel, AlJurf Gardens or Kayan were handed over on their original dates. Ask for the completion certificate or current construction percentage. - AlJurf is at Ghantoot, between the two cities and a long drive from either centre. It is a second-home location, likely to have a thinner rental market than either city, so do not underwrite it like a city apartment. - AlJurf is a 370-hectare estate being released over many years. Early owners will have construction nearby and may wait for the marina and wellness components to open. - Private company with no published financials. Reliance is on the parent group's standing and on the escrow arrangements for each project. - SHA Residences is a branded scheme. Check the service charge and any mandatory club or clinic fees before comparing prices with unbranded villas. ## Notable completed projects - Nudra - Makers Beach - Sheikha Fatima Park ## Questions and answers ### Who owns IMKAN?
