Sharjah's leading developer — Aljada CBD and Masaar Forest.

Arada

Arada is Sharjah's leading developer, founded in 2017 as a partnership between the Al Qasimi family (Sharjah) and Basma Group, owned by a Saudi prince. Its DNA: giant-scale master developments in Sharjah. It is behind Aljada (Sharjah's new CBD — 24M sqft) and Masaar (the forest community — 50,000 trees), two globally notable developments in Sharjah.

THE TRACK RECORD

Arada's record.

The developer that transformed Sharjah — Aljada is Sharjah's new CBD, and Masaar is the only forest community in the Emirates. These two projects turned Sharjah into a serious real estate destination for foreign (freehold) buyers.

Delivery record

Arada has maintained an aggressive delivery pace — Aljada and Masaar are 15+ year developments, yet their first phases were delivered on schedule. The company is known for strong marketing and for promises that materialise.

Years active

Over 8 years (since 2017). Giant-scale master developments in progress

Financial strength

Private, backed by the Al Qasimi family that rules Sharjah plus Basma Group, owned by a Saudi prince. Strong political and family backing. The sales success of Aljada and Masaar has generated a robust cash flow.

Signature style

Arada specialises in giant-scale master developments in Sharjah — not small communities, but entire cities. The standard: freehold communities for foreign buyers in Sharjah (one of the new zone owners that allow this), with an emphasis on integrated planning.

Payment plans

Attractive payment plans linked to construction. On off-plan projects — 60/40 or 70/30 options.

THE HONEST VIEW

Strengths & considerations.

Where Arada shines
  • Aljada + Masaar = the two strongest developments in Sharjah
  • Freehold for foreign buyers — rare in Sharjah
  • Entry prices relatively accessible compared with Dubai
  • Yields of 7-9% in the growing communities
Worth considering
  • The Sharjah market is less liquid than Dubai — resale is slower
  • Giant-scale developments — dependent on infrastructure completion
  • Medium-to-long investment horizon (5-15 years)
  • Competition from Eagle Hills' Maryam Island
