The Wilds Residences 3 by Aldar
The third residences phase of The Wilds by Aldar, a nature led masterplan in Dubailand next to Athlon.
At the entry price this project clears the AED 2 million line for the 10 year Dubai Golden Visa through property. Joint buyers, check the share rule.
My take on The Wilds Residences 3
The Wilds is Aldar's second Dubailand masterplan, built around preserved desert landscape rather than manicured lawns. Residences 3 is the third phase, which means the price has already been tested twice and the first buyers are in.
At AED 5.6 million this is the upper end of the Aldar range in Dubai and it is a different buyer from Forest or Azul. The payment plan is 10 per cent on booking, 55 per cent through the build and 35 per cent on handover in May 2029.
Third phases are usually the sensible place to buy in a masterplan. The first phase proves the product, the second proves the demand, and by the third the developer is building to a known standard with a known buyer. You pay a little more than the launch buyers did and you take a lot less uncertainty.
Who it suits
- Buyers at the upper end who want Aldar's covenant

- Anyone who wants low density in a nature led setting
