About Elora at The Valley Dubai
Elora is Emaar's Q1 2023 release of 430 townhouses at The Valley on the Dubai–Al Ain Road: 284 three-bedroom and 146 four-bedroom homes of 2,095 to 2,608 sq ft, in two exterior styles named Moon and Mysk. The 3 BHK launched from AED 1.6 million (about Rs 4.12 crore) and the 4 BHK from AED 2.1 million, on an 80/20 plan whose construction milestones ran to January 2026. The handover on record is Q3 2026.
Two facts set Elora apart: it launched at about AED 764 per sq ft, the lowest rate of the four 2023-2024 clusters in this set, and it is laid out in single rows with no back-to-back units. The release sold out in 2023; what is on offer now is a resale contract with only the 20% handover instalment left to pay Emaar.

Price and unit pricing
| Unit | Size (built-up) | Price (AED) | In rupees | Implied rate |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| 3 BHK townhouse (entry, launch) | 2,095 - 2,179 sq ft | From 1,600,000 | About Rs 4.12 crore | About AED 764 per sq ft |
| 4 BHK townhouse (launch) | 2,586 - 2,608 sq ft | From 2,100,000 | About Rs 5.41 crore | About AED 812 per sq ft |
| Resale contracts (2026) | — | Above launch; community guides quote The Valley townhouses from about AED 1.8 M | — | Ask for the paid-instalment statement |
| Community reference | — | Lillia launched at about AED 962 per sq ft, Venera at about AED 1,018 | — | Service charge estimate AED 14 - 18 per sq ft a year |
Every source we checked — Emaar's agency network, Sotheby's, Metropolitan and the portals — prints AED 1.6 million for the 3 BHK and AED 2.1 million for the 4 BHK. Per square foot the 4-bedroom costs only about AED 48 more and clears the Golden Visa line, which makes it the better buy for most Indian readers.
No source prints a resale range for Elora. The 2026 guides quote The Valley's townhouses from about AED 1.8 million, and Eden's 2019 homes are said to have appreciated 30 to 40% from launch, so expect a premium. The seller's paid-instalment statement and the SPA settle what you are paying for.
Payment plan and total cost
80/20: 10% on booking, 10% at each of seven milestones from March 2023 to January 2026, then 20% at handover. The milestones were dated rather than progress-linked, unusual for Emaar. Worked on the AED 1,600,000 launch price of the entry 3 BHK:
| Stage | Share | AED | Rupees (at 25.75) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Booking | 10% | 160,000 | About Rs 41.2 lakh |
| Seven milestones, March 2023 to January 2026 | 70% | 1,120,000 | About Rs 2.88 crore |
| At handover | 20% | 320,000 | About Rs 82.4 lakh |
| DLD transfer fee | 4% | 64,000 | About Rs 16.5 lakh |
| Oqood and trustee fees | Fixed | AED 40 at Oqood plus trustee and admin charges | — |
| Total before service charges | About 1,664,000 | About Rs 4.28 crore |
For a 2026 buyer the seller has paid 80%, so you reimburse that through the DLD trustee, pay the premium and 4% on the transfer, and owe Emaar the final AED 320,000 when the handover notice arrives. Have it ready — on a Q3 2026 date it could be called at any time.
Service charges are not published. Community estimates of AED 14 to 18 per sq ft a year put a 2,095 sq ft home at AED 29,000 to 38,000 a year from handover. Final as per the SPA.
Location and connectivity
The Valley is Emaar's suburb on the Dubai–Al Ain Road (E66) at its junction with Jebel Ali–Lehbab Road (E77), past Dubailand on the way to Al Ain. Emaar prints 28 minutes to Downtown; the area guides say 25 to 30 minutes to Downtown and about 30 to Dubai International Airport. There is no metro; this is a car community.
The 200-hectare master plan of more than 4,500 homes has a Town Centre, the Golden Beach lagoon, a Sports Village, Kids' Dale and The Valley Park; Elora's rows sit among pocket parks and jogging trails rather than on the waterways. No source names a school open inside the community, so Academic City and Silicon Oasis schools are the practical options for now.
Against its neighbours: Lillia is the next 3 and 4-bed townhouse cluster, 406 homes from AED 2.05 million with a Q1 2027 date, and Alana is the twin-villa cluster from AED 3.5 million. Emaar's Dubai releases we track sit on the Emaar hub; the emirate-wide list is on all Dubai projects and the whole site's on the projects page.
Amenities and specifications
Quoted on every townhouse: a staff room, a store room, a laundry room, a terrace and a balcony, with a private garden on plots of 1,485 to 2,797 sq ft. The Moon and Mysk styles differ in exterior, not plan. For the cluster: pocket parks, play areas, picnic spots, jogging trails and outdoor fitness zones.
Not published: the finish schedule, appliance brands, parking per home or the service-charge budget. Emaar's January 2023 brochure carries the floor plans; ask for the plot plan of the exact unit, because what backs on to your garden varies a lot.
About the developer
Emaar Properties, builder of Burj Khalifa, Downtown Dubai and Dubai Hills Estate, is Dubai's largest developer: more than 120,000 homes delivered worldwide since 1997, more than 109,000 handed over in Dubai since 2002, over 180 completed buildings in the city. One analysis puts about 80% of its projects within six months of the stated handover date; another records delays of three to nine months on large phased launches, and no cancellations. Its reported backlog was AED 163.4 billion at 31 March 2026.
At The Valley the pattern has held: Eden launched in 2019 and was delivered in June 2023, and Nara, Talia and Orania are reported completed on or ahead of schedule. Elora's Q3 2026 date is the one now being tested.
For Indian buyers
Ownership. The Valley is freehold for every nationality, with the title deed in your own name. There is no annual property tax and no VAT on a residential sale; the government charge is the 4% DLD transfer fee — AED 64,000 on the launch price, charged again on a resale — plus the AED 40 Oqood fee and trustee charges.
Golden Visa and remittance. The 4 BHK at AED 2.1 million clears the AED 2 million threshold by AED 100,000; the 3 BHK at AED 1.6 million misses it by AED 400,000 unless the resale price lifts it over the line. The Liberalised Remittance Scheme allows USD 250,000 per person per Indian financial year; AED 1.6 million is about USD 435,700, two allowances for one buyer or one year for a couple. The Golden Visa guide has the current rules.
Yield and exit. The 2026 area guides put a 3-bed townhouse at The Valley at AED 90,000 to 120,000 a year, which on AED 1.6 million is 5.6 to 7.5% gross and nearer 5 to 6.5% on a resale premium; subtract AED 29,000 to 38,000 of service charge first. On exit, 430 homes handing over in one quarter will crowd the first year's resale and rental market. Rent and capital gains are taxable in India for an Indian tax resident, with the UAE–India treaty deciding the credit.
Pros
- About AED 764 per sq ft at launch — the lowest rate of the 2023-2024 releases in this community
- 430 homes in single rows with no back-to-back plots, which most Dubai townhouse clusters cannot say
- The 4 BHK at AED 2.1 million clears the AED 2 million Golden Visa threshold
- Construction instalments finished in January 2026; only the 20% handover slice is left
- Emaar, with more than 109,000 Dubai homes handed over and no cancellations on record
- A 3-bed at The Valley rents for AED 90,000 to 120,000 a year, which on AED 1.6 million is a 5.6 to 7.5% gross yield
Cons
- The 3 BHK at AED 1.6 million misses the Golden Visa threshold by AED 400,000
- The developer's release is sold out, so any unit on offer carries a seller's premium above the launch price
- Handover was printed for Q3 2026 and no source confirms delivery as the quarter ends
- 20% at the keys is the heaviest final instalment in this set — AED 320,000 due in one go on the entry unit
- Service charge not published; AED 14 to 18 per sq ft is AED 29,000 to 38,000 a year on 2,095 sq ft
- 430 homes handing over in the same quarter means a crowded resale and rental market at first
Who this is for
- End users who want a 3 or 4-bed house in a finished Emaar community for under AED 2.5 million
- Golden Visa buyers who choose the 4 BHK at AED 2.1 million
- Indian investors who can remit USD 435,700 across two LRS allowances and want a yield near 6%
- Anyone who wants keys within months rather than years
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers who need a Golden Visa from the cheapest unit
- Anyone who cannot fund 20% of the price in one instalment at handover
- Buyers who want a detached villa or a plot over 3,000 sq ft
- Anyone expecting a launch-day price; the release sold out in 2023
Our verdict
Elora is the value line inside The Valley: 430 townhouses launched at about AED 764 per sq ft in early 2023, a year before Lillia went out at about AED 962 and eighteen months before Venera at about AED 1,018. The single-row layout is a real advantage on a cluster this size, and with the construction instalments finished, the risk left is the last 20% and the handover date. Press on that date: Q3 2026 ends in four days and nobody has printed a handover notice. Emaar's Valley phases have delivered on time so far, so we would expect keys within a quarter, but the SPA date and the Building Completion Certificate status are the documents, not an agency page. For an Indian buyer the 4 BHK is the better instrument.
A sound buy for an end user or a yield investor who wants a ready townhouse in an Emaar community at the lowest rate per foot in this set, provided the seller's premium keeps the all-in cost under about AED 2 million for the 3 BHK. Pick the 4 BHK if the Golden Visa matters. Get the handover notice, the paid-instalment statement and the SPA completion date in writing before you agree a price.

FAQs
What is the price of Elora at The Valley?
Emaar launched Elora in Q1 2023 from AED 1.6 million — about Rs 4.12 crore or USD 435,700 — for a 3-bedroom townhouse of 2,095 to 2,179 sq ft, roughly AED 764 per sq ft, and from AED 2.1 million (about Rs 5.41 crore) for a 4-bedroom of 2,586 to 2,608 sq ft. The release is sold out, so asking prices today are resale contracts above those figures.
What is the payment plan?
80/20: 10% on booking, 10% at each of seven construction milestones between March 2023 and January 2026, and 20% on handover. On AED 1,600,000 that is AED 160,000 at booking, AED 1,120,000 across the milestones and AED 320,000 at the keys, plus the 4% DLD fee of AED 64,000 — about AED 1.66 million in all.
When is the handover?
The date on record is Q3 2026. On 26 September 2026 no source confirms that keys have been handed, so we leave the date blank rather than print a quarter that ends in four days. Ask for the handover notice and the Building Completion Certificate status, and track the project on the Dubai REST app.
How many townhouses are there and what sizes?
430 in all — 284 three-bedroom and 146 four-bedroom — in single rows with no back-to-back units, in the Moon and Mysk styles. Built-up areas run 2,095 to 2,179 sq ft for the 3 BHK and 2,586 to 2,608 sq ft for the 4 BHK, on plots of 1,485 to 2,797 sq ft.
Does Elora qualify for a Golden Visa?
The 4-bedroom does at its AED 2.1 million launch price, clearing the AED 2 million threshold by AED 100,000. The 3-bedroom at AED 1.6 million misses by AED 400,000, though a resale above AED 2 million would qualify. Confirm the assessment rules for off-plan and resale purchases with the Dubai Land Department.
What rent and service charge should I expect?
The 2026 area guides put a 3-bed townhouse at The Valley at AED 90,000 to 120,000 a year, which is 5.6 to 7.5% gross on the AED 1.6 million launch price and less on a resale premium. No service charge has been published; community estimates of AED 14 to 18 per sq ft a year mean AED 29,000 to 38,000 on 2,095 sq ft.
How does the LRS limit apply to a AED 1.6 million townhouse?
The Liberalised Remittance Scheme allows USD 250,000 per person per Indian financial year. AED 1.6 million is about USD 435,700, so a single buyer needs two allowances and a couple can remit it in one year; the DLD fee and any resale premium come on top.

Handover Timeline
The date on record is Q3 2026 — the developer's milestone schedule ran the seventh construction instalment to January 2026 and the final 20% at handover in Q3 2026. As we write on 26 September 2026 the quarter has four days left and no source we checked reports keys handed, so the handover field is left blank rather than printed as a date that may already have slipped. Ask Emaar or the seller for the Building Completion Certificate status and the handover notice date; Emaar's Valley phases have run on time so far.
Investment Analysis
Why people look at Elora at The Valley Dubai for investment is simple — it is in The Valley, Al Ain Road, and this part of Al Ain Road has seen steady demand from both end-users and investors. Good road links, nearby offices and schools usually keep rentals healthy and resale active. Since it is still under construction, entry prices are lower than ready stock, which is what early buyers count on. That said, treat any price or return figure as a guide and confirm the current cost sheet with us before you decide.
Price Analysis
The starting price of about AED 1.6 M (about Rs 4.12 Cr) is in line with what The Valley, Al Ain Road asks today for this kind of project. What you actually pay shifts with the floor, view, facing and unit size, plus any offer running at the time.
Treat the listed figure as a starting point, not the last word. Ask us for a unit-wise cost sheet so you see the real, all-in number before you decide.
Payment Plan Explained
Dubai off-plan is sold on a split written as two numbers. A 10/90 or 20/80 plan takes that much on booking and the rest at handover, which suits a buyer arranging a mortgage at completion; a 60/40 is the common structure, with 10% to 20% on booking, 40% to 50% across construction milestones and 40% at handover; a 70/30 puts more in the middle and leaves a smaller final cheque. A post-handover plan spreads the balance over one to three years after you have the keys, so rent can help pay it. Two questions settle whether a plan is as good as it looks: is the construction portion tied to milestones or to dates - milestones are better, because they stall if the building stalls - and what does the sale and purchase agreement say happens if you miss an instalment. Your money sits in a DLD-approved escrow account and is released against construction.
Which one suits you depends on whether you are buying to live in or to invest, and on your loan. We can lay out the exact plans on offer and what each costs you.
Hidden Charges to Budget For
Beyond the base price, budget 6% to 7% of the price in fees. The Dubai Land Department takes 4% on every transfer; registration at a trustee office is AED 4,200, or AED 2,100 under AED 500,000; the title deed is AED 580, or AED 40 to register an off-plan contract on Oqood; and a resale usually carries an agency fee of about 2% plus 5% VAT, where a purchase direct from the developer normally carries none. There is no GST and no stamp duty, and the sale of a home does not attract VAT. A mortgage adds about 0.25% of the loan plus AED 290 to register, an arrangement fee and a valuation. After handover the running cost is the service charge - roughly AED 10 to 32 per sq ft a year for apartments and AED 14 to 40 for villas - with no annual property tax on top.
None of this is truly hidden once you see a full cost sheet, but it adds up. Ask us for the complete break-up so the final figure is clear from day one.
Maintenance Cost
Maintenance is billed per square foot every month and depends on the amenities and upkeep level — bigger clubs and more facilities usually mean a slightly higher rate.
We will share the current maintenance rate for this project, along with the one-time maintenance deposit, when you reach out.
Rental Yield
Residential rental yields in The Valley, Al Ain Road are high by world standards: Dubai's citywide gross sits at about 6% to 8%, with the mid-market communities - JVC, Arjan, Dubai Silicon Oasis and Dubailand - running 8% to 9.5% and the premium addresses, Downtown and Palm Jumeirah, 4% to 6%. Net is 1.5 to 2.5 points below gross once the annual service charge and about 6% management are paid, so a 9% headline in a mid-market tower settles near 6%, and a 5% in Downtown nearer 3.5%. Ask for the building's own service charge per sq ft before you trust any yield quoted to you.
If rental income is your main aim, tell us your budget and we will point you to the configurations that rent out fastest here.
Resale Potential
Resale demand in The Valley, Al Ain Road is generally active because the corridor stays in demand with both end-users and investors. A known builder and a good location usually make a unit easier to sell later.
Resale value still comes down to the exact unit, floor and the market at the time, so buy at a sensible price and the resale side tends to look after itself.
Handover Risks
Since it is still being built, the handover date can move. What protects you here is different: an off-plan project must be registered with the Dubai Land Department and take every instalment into a project escrow account, and you can check the construction percentage yourself on the Dubai REST app before you pay.
Before booking, check the handover date written into the SPA and what the contract says if it slips. We will also share the developer's delivery record so you go in with eyes open.
Bank Loan Availability
A UAE bank will usually lend a non-resident about 50 to 65 percent of the value, with the balance paid up front, and a completed building is easier to fund than an off-plan one. An Indian buyer can remit up to USD 250,000 per person per financial year under the Liberalised Remittance Scheme.
We can connect you with loan partners, help with eligibility and paperwork, and line up a competitive interest rate.
Construction Updates
The project is currently under construction. The build stage and finishing change month to month.
For the latest construction progress — the percentage on the DLD record, finishing or handover readiness — call or WhatsApp us and we will share the most recent update.

Locality Review
The Valley, Al Ain Road is a settled Dubai address. Day-to-day life is easy here - schools, clinics, supermarkets and a mall or retail strip are inside or beside the community, and the road grid connects to Downtown, DIFC, Dubai Marina and both airports. Freehold ownership, no annual property tax and a large tenant pool are what hold demand. It suits a buyer who wants an established community rather than a plot in a district still being built.

About Emaar Properties
Emaar Properties is Dubai's largest developer and the builder of Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall, Downtown Dubai, Dubai Marina, Arabian Ranches and Dubai Hills Estate. Published counts put it at more than 120,000 homes delivered worldwide since 1997 and more than 109,000 handed over in Dubai since 2002, with over 180 completed buildings in the city. One analysis puts about 80% of Emaar projects within six months of the stated handover date; another notes delays of three to nine months on large phased launches, and no cancellations. Its reported revenue backlog of AED 163.4 billion at 31 March 2026 is why its projects finish. At The Valley, Eden launched in 2019 and was delivered in June 2023, and Nara, Talia and Orania are reported completed on or ahead of schedule.

💬 Our View
Elora is the value line inside The Valley: 430 townhouses launched at about AED 764 per sq ft in early 2023, a year before Lillia went out at about AED 962 and eighteen months before Venera at about AED 1,018. The single-row layout is a real advantage on a cluster this size, and with the construction instalments finished, the risk left is the last 20% and the handover date. Press on that date: Q3 2026 ends in four days and nobody has printed a handover notice. Emaar's Valley phases have delivered on time so far, so we would expect keys within a quarter, but the SPA date and the Building Completion Certificate status are the documents, not an agency page. For an Indian buyer the 4 BHK is the better instrument.
We track Al Ain Road closely, and Elora at The Valley Dubai is one of the homes buyers ask about often. Our honest take: weigh the developer, the exact unit, and the price you get against nearby options before you commit. We are not here to push one project — we help you compare and pick what fits your budget and plan. For the live price and a clear comparison, just reach out.
