What does your budget buy here?
Set a figure and we will match it against what is still available in this project.
Off-plan mortgages are arranged at handover, against the completed home.
The service charge starts at handover, not at purchase, and the first year is usually pro-rated from the day you collect the keys. In Dubai the budget behind it is filed with the Mollak system each year, so the rate is reviewed once the building is occupied and can move from the launch figure.
You will get the unit number, floor, size and exact price for each — not the whole building.

Good to know
Straight answers from the developer's published terms, checked 8 Oct 2026.
What is the payment plan for Athlon by Aldar?
+
Payment plan for Townhouses & Standard Villas: 10% on booking, 50% during construction and 40% on handover. 2 payment plans are offered in total.
How much is the booking amount for Athlon by Aldar?
+
10% of the purchase price falls due on booking — from AED 1,358,278 on the lowest-priced home. A bank or a broker may call the same figure the reservation deposit or the down payment; it is one and the same first instalment, and it is paid to the developer rather than to us.
When does Athlon by Aldar hand over?
+
Handover is scheduled for Q2 2028. Construction is 8.32% complete.
What do homes in Athlon by Aldar cost?
+
Homes currently available start from AED 13,582,780 and range up to AED 19,243,106 for 5 – 6 bed homes. These are the prices of the homes released for sale through our live feed today, not the launch prices — earlier and cheaper releases may have sold out.
How much does each bedroom size cost at Athlon by Aldar?
+
Published starting prices by layout are 4 bed from AED 4,400,000; 5 bed from AED 13,582,780; 6 bed from AED 17,839,835. Those are the entry price for each size — floor, view and the exact layout move the figure, and the current price list carries the price of every remaining unit.
Is there a price list for Athlon by Aldar?
+
Yes. Ask for it on this page and the developer’s own price list is emailed to you — unit number, floor, exact size, price and price per square foot for every home still available. 26 homes were unsold at the last check on 8 Oct 2026.
Who is the developer of Athlon by Aldar?
+
Athlon by Aldar is developed by ALDAR in Arabian Ranches 3 · Dubai · United Arab Emirates.
What is the service charge at Athlon by Aldar?
+
The published service charge at Athlon by Aldar is 7 AED/sqft, billed once a year. On the smallest published layout, 6,083 sqft, that is roughly AED 42,581 a year. It starts at handover and the first year is usually pro-rated from the day you collect the keys. In Dubai the annual budget behind the charge is filed with the Mollak system, so the figure is reviewed each year once the building is occupied. Checked 8 Oct 2026.
Is my money protected when buying off-plan at Athlon by Aldar?
+
In the UAE an off-plan instalment is paid into the project’s escrow account rather than to the developer directly, and is released against construction progress the regulator has verified. No escrow account number has been published to us for Athlon by Aldar, which is not the same as there being none — an advisor can confirm the account with ALDAR before you pay anything.
Does buying in Athlon by Aldar qualify for a UAE Golden Visa?
+
With homes currently available from AED 13,582,780, homes here meet the AED 2,000,000 property investment threshold for the 10-year Golden Visa. Since February 2026, off-plan and mortgaged purchases can qualify on a certified valuation — our advisors can confirm eligibility for a specific unit.

Athlon by Aldar vs Talay & Talay Beach at Marsa Al Saadiyat
The closest live alternative we hold — Saadiyat Island rather than Arabian Ranches 3. Both are still selling, so the two sets of terms can be weighed against each other rather than against a memory.
