Residency Through One of Only Thirteen Country Estates

Eligibility Snapshot
The Farmhouses at DAMAC Hills 2 Golden Visa Facts
The Farmhouses is a 13-villa freehold cluster by DAMAC Properties inside DAMAC Hills 2, registered with the Dubai Land Department under project number 2543 on 25 July 2023, with construction under way since 19 September 2023 across a 16,727.78 sq m plot in Madinat Hind 4 and recorded at 83.02% progress at the RERA inspection of 14 May 2026, up from 58.96% at the inspection before it. The detail that matters for residency planning: the 5 bedroom European Style farmhouse starts at AED 6.22M ≈ USD 1.69M and the 6 bedroom North American Style at AED 11.10M ≈ USD 3.02M, so one villa clears the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K minimum property investment applied under the UAE Golden Visa program by a wide margin, subject to the regulations in force when you apply. Be clear about the delivery position as well: the RERA registered completion date of 28 August 2025 has passed and the villas are still being finished, so the purchase remains registered on Oqood until the title deed is issued at handover.

Unit by Unit
Which Farmhouses Meet the AED 2M Threshold
On most Dubai projects this section is a genuine filter: some tiers reach the threshold, some fall short, and the residency decision quietly narrows the shortlist. The Farmhouses inverts that. The cheapest villa in the cluster is priced at roughly three times the qualifying minimum, and the larger typology at more than five, so eligibility is settled before you open the floor plans. What the table below is really telling you is that your choice can be made on land, layout and budget alone.
| Unit Type | Built-Up Area | Starting Price | Qualifies Alone |
|---|---|---|---|
| European Style FH-3500, 5 Bedroom + Maid | 3,500 sq ft (325 sq m) built, plus 6,500 sq ft of plot | AED 6.22M ≈ USD 1.69M | Yes |
| North American Style FH-6500, 6 Bedroom + Maid + Driver | 6,500 sq ft (604 sq m) built, plus 13,500 sq ft of plot | AED 11.10M ≈ USD 3.02M | Yes |
| Both typologies qualify individually, with no tier sitting below the threshold. No combining of properties is needed. | |||
Why this matters: eligibility is assessed on the registered purchase value, not on the asking price of the typology, so the figure that counts is the one written into your own contract and registered with the Dubai Land Department. With thirteen villas in the whole project and a starting price of AED 6.22M ≈ USD 1.69M, no plot in the cluster is realistically going to trade below the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K line, but a resale purchase should still be checked against the registered value before an application is prepared.
Payment Plan and Timing
When Buyers at The Farmhouses Can Apply
DAMAC sells The Farmhouses on a 20/50/30 plan: 20% as an immediate deposit on booking, with the 4% DLD fee paid on top of it, then 5% each within 3, 6, 9 and 12 months of your sale date, 10% each within 15, 18 and 21 months, and a final 30% on completion. Two features of that schedule change the residency picture. The instalments run from your own sale date rather than from the project launch, and the deposit alone puts a fifth of the price on the table from day one.
My read on the timing: because the villas are already recorded at 83.02% and the registered completion date is behind us, this looks far less like a conventional off-plan wait than the payment plan suggests. Until the title deed is issued, the purchase is registered on Oqood, so an application made today is an off-plan application, supported by that registration and by proof that the purchase meets the qualifying value and any paid-value conditions applied by the Dubai Land Department and the residency authorities at the time you apply. Buyers who want residency in hand while the villa is finished take that route, and the front-loaded deposit means most reach the commonly applied conditions early. Buyers with no urgency prefer the simplest possible file: wait for handover, when the title deed replaces Oqood and the application rests on completed, registered ownership. Because the conditions attached to off-plan applications are updated from time to time, confirm the current version before submitting, and treat the handover route as the near-term option it now is rather than a fixed date, since a revised delivery date has not been published.
VIP processing, zero service fee: for buyers who purchase through me, the full application service, document preparation, submission, and status follow-up, is included free. You pay only the official government fees published by the issuing authorities.

Project Insights for The Farmhouses Buyers
A qualifying purchase at The Farmhouses rests on more than clearing the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K threshold. With the registered completion date behind us, buyers should read each RERA inspection for themselves, confirm that every instalment lands in the project trust account, and plan an inspection that covers the paddock and pool as well as the villa.

The Farmhouses at DAMAC Hills 2 Golden Visa Frequently Asked Questions
Both. The 5 bedroom European Style farmhouse starts at AED 6.22M ≈ USD 1.69M and the 6 bedroom North American Style at AED 11.10M ≈ USD 3.02M, so each typology clears the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K threshold on its own and no tier in the project sits below it. Eligibility is assessed on the registered purchase value, so the contract value of your specific villa is the figure that counts. Full criteria are covered in the Golden Visa requirements guide.
Yes. The RERA registered completion date of 28 August 2025 has passed, but the project remains active and under construction, recorded at 83.02% at the independent inspection of 14 May 2026. Until handover the purchase is registered on Oqood rather than on a title deed, so an application made now follows the off-plan route and is judged against the conditions applied to off-plan property at the time of application. The process is explained step by step in the off-plan Golden Visa guide.
The plan is 20% on booking plus the 4% DLD fee, then 5% each within 3, 6, 9 and 12 months of the sale date, 10% each within 15, 18 and 21 months, and 30% on completion. Because the instalments run from your own sale date rather than from the project launch, a buyer starts at a fifth of the price paid and passes the halfway mark by month 15, which is why the paid-value conditions commonly applied to off-plan applications are usually satisfied early. Those conditions are updated from time to time, so the version in force at the time of application is the one that applies.
Certified progress does not decide eligibility on its own, which rests on the registered purchase value and the requirements in force at the time of application. What it changes is the distance to the title deed. At 83.02% recorded on 14 May 2026, the completed-ownership route is much closer here than on a project at an early stage, although a revised handover date has not been published. Progress is tracked inspection by inspection on the The Farmhouses construction updates page.
Yes. The Farmhouses is freehold and open to all nationalities, with full ownership registered at the Dubai Land Department, which is a requirement for property-based Golden Visa eligibility. Buyer payments are protected through the project's DLD-registered escrow account at Abu Dhabi Commercial Bank, detailed on the The Farmhouses escrow account page.
No. For buyers who purchase through this advisory, the VIP application service, covering document preparation, submission, and status follow-up, is included at no charge. Only the official government fees apply, as published by the issuing authorities at the time of application.
No. The purchase makes you eligible to apply, but approval depends on satisfying all requirements in force at the time of application, including ownership verification and standard background checks. The current term of the program is 10 years, renewable.
