Mudon Al Ranim by Dubai Properties

Dubai Properties is a Dubai master developer and part of Dubai Holding Real Estate, whose chief executive is Khalid Al Malik. It created Business Bay and Jumeirah Beach Residence, which was planned as the world's largest single phase, 40 tower residential development. Its Dubailand portfolio includes The Villa, Al Waha, Serena and Villanova, and its Jaddaf Waterfront work includes Dubai Wharf and Manazel Al Khor. The wider group counts about 93,500 residential units across its portfolio.

Mudon Al Ranim by Dubai Properties follows a long list of completed homes across Dubai. The record below includes only projects with a confirmed handover year. Several of these were paused after 2008 and finished later than first planned.

• Remraam, Dubailand | first buildings delivered from 2011
• Bay Square Phase 1, Business Bay | first 2 buildings completed in 2013
• Mudon Phase 1 | handover started December 2014, with all 398 homes handed over in 2015
• Mudon Phase 2 | about 400 villas delivered between August and October 2016
• Arabella Townhouses, Mudon | completed on schedule in 2018

Work continues on the later Al Ranim releases, which run up to Phase 8.

Mudon is a gated master community by Dubai Properties in Dubailand, first launched in 2008. It includes the Rahat, Al Salam, Naseem, Arabella and Mudon Views neighbourhoods, plus Al Ranim, launched in 2022 in 8 phases. Its central park covers about 1.8 million sq ft with jogging and cycling tracks, a skate park and sports courts. Within Dubai Properties Mudon, daily needs are met at Al Salam Town Centre, which has a Geant Express supermarket and a pharmacy, along with the Mudon Community Centre, the community mosque and Blossom Nursery.

Mudon is one of the larger family communities in Dubailand. These are the points buyers usually ask about before visiting.

• Established in 2008: Mudon opened as a suburban, family first gated community by Dubai Properties.
• 3 sub communities: Arabella townhouses, Mudon Views apartments with 1, 2 and 3 bedrooms, and the Al Ranim townhouse cluster.
• 8 phases of Al Ranim: the cluster grew from Phase 1 into 8 released phases, all with 3 and 4 bedroom townhouses.
• Community centres: Mudon has community centres with restaurants, shops, clinics, jogging tracks, sports fields and schools.
• Mudon Central Park: a separate large park next to the Mudon Views apartments, in addition to Al Ranim Park.
• Al Ranim Park zones: a social zone, a nature play area, an activity zone and a health hub.
• Ownership: Al Ranim in Mudon is freehold, so buyers of any nationality can own a home here

Al Ranim by Dubai Properties works well for a buyer who wants a finished family home in a gated community without an off plan wait. It fits these profiles most closely.

• Families moving in now: the homes are complete, so a family can plan a school year around a real move in date.
• Households with live in help: a maid room is part of all 4 layouts, not an optional extra.
• Buyers who want green views: homes are arranged around the park perimeter, so most face open lawns and trails.
• Families needing a second lounge: the 3B2 and 4B2 types add a family room and a roof level.
• End users working in Dubai Hills or Al Barsha: Dubai Hills Mall is 15 minutes away and Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road is 5 minutes away.
• Buyers who value a government linked developer: Dubai Properties is part of Dubai Holding Real Estate.
• Controlled access: The neighbourhood is gated and has round the clock security, which suits families with young children.
• An extra living floor: The family types add a roof level room with a balcony, useful as a playroom, study or guest lounge.
• Greenery at the door: Rows line the outer edge of the park, so the front view is open landscape rather than another row of homes.

• Car dependent: Public transport is thin in this part of Dubailand, so most daily trips need a car or a ride hailing app.
• Resale premium: First release buyers paid from AED 1.9 million at launch, so townhouses for sale in Mudon Al Ranim today cost far more than the original price.
• Shared walls: The 3 bedroom types are mid units with neighbours on both sides, which means less side light and privacy than end units.
• Nearby building work: Neighbouring plots are still active sites, so construction traffic and noise continue in parts of the area.
• Plot sizes differ: Plot area changes from plot to plot, so garden size varies even between homes of the same type.

At Mudon Al Ranim, before keys are released, each owner gets a handover inspection, often called snagging, to record defects that the developer must fix. Owners check walls and ceilings for cracks, paint and tile finish, door and window seals, water pressure and leaks under sinks, drainage in the garden and on the roof, air conditioning output and every socket and switch. Resale buyers inherit whatever Maintenance time is left from the original handover date.

• Structural After-Sales Support: The developer is liable for structural defects for 10 years from the completion certificate under Article 40 of Dubai Law No. 6 of 2019.
• Fixtures and fittings: Mechanical, electrical, plumbing and drainage installations are covered for 1 year from the date the home is handed over to the owner.

Service charges in Mudon pay for the shared community, including cover for common areas such as parks, pools, roads and landscaping. Each townhouse stands on its own plot, so the structure of the home itself is not part of that shared cover and is the owner's responsibility to insure.

End users living in the home should add contents insurance for furniture, appliances and personal belongings, along with personal liability cover. Investors who rent out a unit usually take a landlord policy that covers the building, their own fittings and loss of rent after an insured event. Banks in the UAE require property insurance on any home bought with a mortgage, and many also ask for life cover on the borrower.

Both phases are 3 and 4 bedroom townhouse releases by Dubai Properties in Mudon, Dubailand. The table compares them side by side.

Phase 1 is the move in now option, with every home complete. Al Ranim 7 has slightly larger 3 bedroom homes, starting at 2,345 sq ft against 2,217 sq ft in Phase 1, and its handover is scheduled for Q3 2026. Phase 1 also includes family room layouts with an extra roof level, which suits households that want a second lounge.
