The developer was also supported by the ongoing strong performance of the Sharjah real estate sector, where the value of the property sold in the first half of the year rose by 41 percent, according to data recently released by the Sharjah Real Estate Registration Department.
Sheikh Sultan bin Ahmed Al Qasimi, Chairman of Arada, said, "Both our sales and transaction data for the Emirate as a whole tell us that Sharjah is becoming an increasingly important investment destination for property buyers from around the world.
"We aim that this pattern will continue for the near and medium-term, and even allowing for the exceptional sales performance that Arada achieved in the third quarter of last year, we are still on track to achieve our target of increasing our sales by 30 percent in 2021 compared to 2020."
Home handovers and new building launches continue to drive interest at Aljada, where the company sold 7,000 homes.
The value of sales at Aljada, Sharjah’s largest ever mixed-use community, rose by 23 percent to AED502 million during the first half, with a total sale of 823 homes. The first homes at the 24 million square foot megaproject were handed over in January, and several contracts have been awarded to increase construction activity at several locations on site.
Following its launch in January this year, sales at Masaar, the upmarket forested community spread over a 19 million square foot area in the Suyouh district of Sharjah, reached a total value of AED510 million, with a total sale of 256 homes.
Construction work continues on the sixth and final phase of Arada’s first project, Nasma Residences, which is sold out. Nasma Central, the community hub and landscaped park at the heart of the project was completed and opened to the public in May.
During the first half, Arada also secured a total of AED582 million in loans from Dubai Islamic Bank and Ajman Bank, which is being used to fund construction across the developer’s project portfolio, which is valued at AED33 billion.
