Leading sustainability focused developer Fakhruddin Properties today broke ground on its newest residential project, Treppan Tower, located in Jumeirah Village Triangle, Dubai. A flagship Treppan Living branded development, the striking 32-storey tower is a visual icon of modern architecture complemented by the latest advancements in sustainability-led living.

Home to 264 contemporary one- and two-bedroom apartments, and limited number of stunning three-bedroom sky villas, units range in size from 479 to 2,916-square feet and occupy 25 residential floors. A further two floors (1st and 16th) will be dedicated to revolutionary and wellness-focused lifestyle amenities including Zen inspired landscaping, with five podium parking levels.

One of Dubai’s fastest-growing residential hubs, Jumeirah Village Triangle was selected for the introduction of Treppan Living’s unique blend of sustainability, smart technology, and lifestyle-focused amenities due to its alignment with Fakhruddin Properties’ vision to deliver wellness-forward communities in emerging, high-potential locations. This is supported by convenient connectivity and strategic access to major highways, as well as the community’s peaceful low-density environment, with sustained demand from families and investors.

Tower residents will benefit from AI-enabled smart home automation technology capable of detecting unnecessary lighting or air-conditioning usage, with inbuilt demand-control functionality designed to effectively regulate and manage energy consumption. Homeowners and tenants will also breathe easier, thanks to pure indoor air quality levels delivered via Fakhruddin Properties’ proprietary Smart Air Handling Unit (SAHU) system; and have on-tap access to hydrogenated, ionised, organically mineralised alkaline drinking water.

The Greenhouse Café will be the heart of the community for residents. Conventional air-conditioning replaced by radiant cooling technology and the run-off water recycled for irrigation use in the onsite hydroponics garden make this place one of a kind. A refill station for everyday household product essentials will also be located within the café with the goal of reducing/eliminating single use plastics purchase. To reduce landfill waste by 90%, Fakhruddin Properties will provide residents with color-coded, barcode-enabled bags for easy sorting into wet, dry, and reject bins. The building’s system is set up for comprehensive composting and recycling.

Speaking at the ceremony, Yousuf Fakhruddin, CEO and Managing Partner of Fakhruddin Properties, said: “A next-generation, wellness-centric branded residence designed for the future of urban living, today’s Treppan Tower groundbreaking signals the next phase of our commitment to building transformational wellness-integrated communities in Dubai and collectively address carbon footprint reduction goals across our portfolio. Together with our upcoming duo of luxury residential projects set to bring signature Fakhruddin innovation to future communities within the Dubai Islands cluster, this further strengthens our substantial portfolio to include a growing number of existing and under-development residential destinations.”

“As a highly decorated pioneer in the sustainability development space in the UAE, with 11 awards recognising eco-friendly innovations implemented across various projects, and a total of 18 accolades spanning sustainability, innovation, technology, brand, leadership and design, Fakhruddin Properties is truly walking the talk for each new project – from drawing board to physical reality – with the delivery of liveable, environmentally-conscious developments that align with Dubai and the UAE Government’s long-term sustainability vision.”

This builds on the April 2025 establishment of the Real Estate Alliance, a Dubai Land Department (DLD) strategic initiative that brings together a quartet of leading developers, including Fakhruddin Properties, through enhanced collaboration and partnership between public and private sector entities in support of long-term real estate market growth.

WHY DEVELOPERS SHOULD ADOPT AN INVESTOR MINDSET IN EVOLVING REAL ESTATE MARKET

In today’s buoyant UAE Real Estate landscape, conventional metrics like unit sales volumes are becoming obsolete. Instead, genuine success increasingly lies in value measured through long-term rental income, growth, asset quality, and capital appreciation. Developers who adopt an investor-led mindset, prioritising yield, durability, and premium standards, are effectively shaping the future of the sector in the UAE.

From Selling Today to Earning Tomorrow

To achieve this shift, developers must transcend the traditional focus on one-time sales. Developers must embrace business models that generate sustainable rental income, ensuring a predictable stream of cash flow even during market fluctuations. Future-focused project planning must integrate rental viability, anchoring developments in steady long-term returns rather than immediate, speculative gains. This investor-first approach positions developers for long-term growth.

Rental Market Momentum: Major Growth Engine

The UAE’s residential leases market is projected to reach USD 27.98 billion in 2025 and USD 33.10 billion by 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.3 per cent. Developers who prioritise rental-ready, high-quality units will be best placed to capture this expanding market, appealing both to residents seeking premium housing and to investors seeking reliable returns. This demonstrates the enormous potential that rental-centric development strategies hold.

Supply Growth and Still Solid Returns

Despite expectations of 180,000 new residential units by 2026, rental yields remain strong at 7.4 per cent. This reveals persistent demand, indicating prime opportunities for value-added investments. Developers can capitalise this by offering thoughtfully designed projects with integrated amenities and sustainability features on strategic locations, elements that elevate rental income and investor appeal.

Attracting Global Capital through Investment-First Mindset

The UAE’s progressive policies such as long-term visas, free zones for Real Estate, and investor-friendly reforms, continue to magnetise international and institutional capital. By adopting an investor-first mindset, developers can meet this evolving demand by offering investment-grade opportunities and high-quality, income-generating assets that appeal to discerning global investors.

Differentiating Through Quality

To differentiate in this present market increasingly defined by long-term value rather than rapid turnover, excellence in design, exceptional finishes and long-term value are keys. Developers who invest in durability, sustainability, and strategic positioning, beyond sheer scale, will attract tenant loyalty and investor confidence. This differentiation fosters both brand equity and financial resilience.

Aligning with Future: Investor Mindset as Strategy

As the UAE Real Estate landscape evolves, we can safely state that those developers that think like investors will certainly emerge as leaders. By aligning projects with long-term income generation, adhering to global investment standards, and offering quality-driven, sustainable developments, they lay the groundwork for enduring success.

This dynamic Real Estate environment is not merely a passing trend but a blueprint for sustainable, value-based growth in the UAE market. Developers who embrace this investor-led vision, integrating rental yield, design excellence, and global standards, will not only thrive but also redefine the future of the sector.

Dubai’s tallest commercial tower honors’ two decades of architectural innovation

OMNIYAT, Dubai’s visionary ultra-luxury developer, has officially launched LUMENA ALTA, a 380-metre landmark redefining the city’s skyline. Upon completion in 2030, it will become Business Bay’s tallest commercial tower.

The launch also celebrates OMNIYAT’s 20th anniversary, symbolizing two decades of design, craftsmanship, and creativity. Moreover, with a Gross Development Value above AED 5 billion, LUMENA ALTA continues the success of LUMENA and ENARA, reaffirming OMNIYAT’s position as a leader in luxury real estate.


A Vision Elevated

From its name, LUMENA ALTA captures light and ambition. “Lumena,” derived from the Latin lumen, evokes brilliance and creativity, while “Alta,” meaning elevated, conveys height and aspiration. Together, they express OMNIYAT’s guiding principle – The Art of Elevation.

Furthermore, the tower’s spiraling glass façade reflects sunlight by day and glows softly by night. Its fluid design embodies motion and progress, mirroring Dubai’s rise as a global capital of innovation.


Workspaces That Inspire

Designed for global visionaries, LUMENA ALTA blends performance, wellbeing, and prestige in one vertical destination. Triple-height sky lobbies, panoramic terraces, and bright atria bring openness and balance to every floor. In addition, landscaped sky gardens and private terraces connect work with nature, creating calm within energy.

Strategically located on Sheikh Zayed Road, the tower provides direct access to Downtown Dubai, DIFC, and the future Dubai Metro Gold Line. Together with its twin, LUMENA, it forms a luminous gateway to Business Bay – a landmark of connectivity, commerce, and culture.


A World Above Expectation

Crowning the structure, a five-star lifestyle hotel merges hospitality with architectural artistry. Its Sky Pool, suspended 335 metres above the city, will be the world’s highest infinity pool.

At the summit, the Sky Restaurant will deliver panoramic 360° views of Dubai’s skyline and coastline. Each evening will blend gastronomy, design, and spectacle – a sensory experience above the clouds.

Moreover, wellbeing defines the tower’s rhythm. Private fitness suites, hydrotherapy zones, vitality pools, and spa sanctuaries offer renewal throughout the day. A 25-metre indoor lap pool completes a lifestyle that balances achievement and serenity.


Service Beyond Space

As with all OMNIYAT masterpieces, LUMENA ALTA offers service that matches its design. A dedicated concierge team manages reception, meetings, and lifestyle coordination. Furthermore, residents and guests can access tailored experiences – from wellness scheduling and luxury travel to event planning and personal shopping.

Drawing inspiration from The Opus, One at Palm Jumeirah, and The Lana, OMNIYAT turns architecture into living art, ensuring every interaction feels seamless and refined.


Smart, Sustainable and Future-Ready

LUMENA ALTA is engineered to achieve LEED Platinum, Platinum WELL, Platinum WiredScore, and SmartScore Certifications. These standards emphasise sustainability, technology, and human wellbeing. Consequently, the tower establishes a new benchmark for intelligent, future-focused commercial spaces.


A Legacy of Ambition and Artistry

Reflecting on the milestone, Mahdi Amjad, Founder and Executive Chairman of OMNIYAT, said:

“Dubai attracts global enterprises that value excellence and creativity. As demand for premium space grows, OMNIYAT will keep reshaping the skyline with bold, intelligent designs that inspire progress.”

Over the past two decades, OMNIYAT has evolved from a developer into a curator of architectural art. With LUMENA ALTA, the company begins a new chapter – one where art, architecture, and ambition converge to define Dubai’s next horizon.

Sobha Realty has announced strong initial sales at its flagship Downtown UAQ | Sobha Realty master development, reinforcing rising investor confidence in Umm Al Quwain as the UAE’s next coastal growth hub.

Within just one week of its launch, the developer confirmed that over 50% of units in the first three residential towers were sold, setting a new benchmark for sales velocity in the northern emirates.

The 25-million-square-foot master development, located along Umm Al Quwain’s natural waterfront, is envisioned as the Coastal Skyline of the Future. The project integrates premium residences, commercial hubs, hospitality offerings, and lifestyle amenities to create an exceptional living experience. It is designed to balance modern living with environmental stewardship, with more than half of the total land area dedicated to open and green spaces.

The master plan spans 11 kilometers of pristine waterfront and includes over 7 kilometers of uninterrupted natural beach, two marinas, landscaped boulevards, and future-ready mobility solutions such as water taxis. It will also feature the UAQ Trade Centre, premium office space, and leisure attractions to strengthen its position as a mixed-use destination.

The first residential cluster, Sobha Aquamont, was unveiled earlier this year and comprises three towers of one-, two-, and three-bedroom waterfront apartments. The towers are designed to maximize natural light and coastal views, in line with Sobha Realty’s emphasis on luxury, craftsmanship, and sustainability.

“Umm Al Quwain is emerging as a highly attractive destination for residents and investors seeking world-class coastal living in a natural environment,” said Francis Alfred, Managing Director of Sobha Realty. “The strong sales response at Downtown UAQ reflects both the confidence in Sobha Realty’s vision and the growing appeal of Umm Al Quwain as a market poised for long-term growth.”

Adding to Sobha Realty’s expanding UAE portfolio of luxury communities, Downtown UAQ | Sobha Realty reinforces the company’s reputation for engineering excellence and sustainable urban design. It also highlights the growing momentum of mixed-use coastal projects in the UAE, which are attracting increasing interest from both domestic buyers and international investors.

By setting a new sales benchmark in its opening week, Downtown UAQ | Sobha Realty has established itself as one of the region’s most ambitious and promising waterfront destinations.
