Eligibility Snapshot
Rosehill at Dubai Hills Estate Golden Visa Facts
Rosehill is a 353-apartment freehold development by Emaar in Dubai Hills Estate, registered with the Dubai Land Department under project number 3834 on 20 June 2025 and licensed to developer number 984, Dubai Hills Estate L.L.C. Construction has been running since 13 August 2025 on DLD plot 5426, with a total registered built-up area of 54,337.56 sq m site in Hadaeq Sheikh Mohammed Bin Rashid, and the RERA Independent Progress Monitoring Report dated 2 June 2026 certifies 7.83% progress, up from 6.5% at the previous inspection. The number that decides residency planning here is not the headline price. One bedroom releases open at AED 1.60M ≈ USD 436K, below the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K minimum property investment applied under the UAE Golden Visa program, while two bedroom apartments from AED 2.31M ≈ USD 629K and three bedroom apartments from AED 3.56M ≈ USD 969K clear it on their own, subject to the regulations in force when you apply. Handover is expected in Q2 2029, when Oqood registration converts to a title deed.

Unit by Unit
Which Rosehill Apartments Meet the AED 2M Threshold
Rosehill is a threshold-split project, and glossing over that would cost a buyer the visa. The one bedroom is the volume tier here, 197 of the 353 residences, and it opens roughly AED 400K ≈ USD 109K short of the qualifying line. Residency planning therefore starts at the two bedroom tier of 118 apartments, with the 38 three bedroom homes sitting well clear of it. Twenty eight apartments remain with Emaar at the time of writing; the counts below are total inventory rather than current availability, and the areas are total sizes including balconies and terraces.
| Unit Type | Built-Up Area | Starting Price | Qualifies Alone |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 Bedroom Apartment | 741 to 844 sq ft (69 to 78 sq m) | AED 1.60M ≈ USD 436K | No |
| 2 Bedroom Apartment | 1,081 to 1,365 sq ft (100 to 127 sq m) | AED 2.31M ≈ USD 629K | Yes |
| 3 Bedroom Apartment | 1,656 to 1,799 sq ft (154 to 167 sq m) | AED 3.56M ≈ USD 969K | Yes |
| Two and three bedroom apartments qualify individually. One bedroom apartments start below AED 2M ≈ USD 545K and do not qualify on their own. | |||
Why this matters: eligibility is assessed on the registered purchase value, not on the tier name. A two bedroom apartment contracted at AED 2.31M ≈ USD 629K sits above the line from the moment the Oqood is issued, while a one bedroom buyer would need a second registered property to reach AED 2M ≈ USD 545K in combined value, where the rules in force at the time permit properties to be combined. Higher floors and fairway-facing layouts price above these entry figures, so confirm the contract value on your specific unit before applying.
Payment Plan and Timing
When Off-Plan Buyers at Rosehill Can Apply
Rosehill sells on an 80/20 construction-linked plan: 10% on booking plus the 4% DLD fee, then seven further 10% instalments dated from September 2025 through June 2028, four of them tied to certified milestones at 40%, 60%, 80% and 90% completion, and a closing 20% at 100% completion in June 2029. Off-plan applications are typically supported by Oqood registration, which Emaar completes after booking, together with proof that the purchase meets the qualifying value and any payment conditions applied by the Dubai Land Department and residency authorities at the time you apply.
My read on the timing: at 7.83% certified progress this is an early-stage site, and that changes the calculus against a project nearing completion. Cumulative payments cross the halfway mark at the fourth instalment in February 2027, and paid-value conditions of that order are commonly applied to off-plan files, so the realistic first application window opens inside the construction period rather than at booking. Buyers relocating families or opening UAE bank accounts usually want that earlier window. Investors with no urgency often prefer the simplest possible file and wait for handover in Q2 2029, when the title deed is issued and the application rests on completed, registered ownership. Because requirements for off-plan applications are updated from time to time, confirm the current paid-value condition before submitting.
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.

A residency visa runs for ten years, and the apartment that earns it should still be worth owning at the end of them. The full Rosehill guide covers what a qualifying purchase actually buys: block-by-block layouts, current pricing, amenities, and the Dubai Hills Estate masterplan around it.

Rosehill at Dubai Hills Estate Golden Visa Frequently Asked Questions
Two and three bedroom apartments. Two bedroom units start at AED 2.31M ≈ USD 629K and three bedroom units at AED 3.56M ≈ USD 969K, so either clears the line on a single title. One bedroom apartments start at AED 1.60M ≈ USD 436K, below the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K threshold, and do not qualify on their own. Full criteria are covered in the Golden Visa requirements guide.
Not on their own. The one bedroom tier starts at AED 1.60M ≈ USD 436K, about AED 400K ≈ USD 109K short of the AED 2M ≈ USD 545K threshold. Eligibility is assessed on registered purchase value, so a one bedroom buyer would need a second registered property to reach the qualifying total, where the rules in force at the time of application allow properties to be combined.
Off-plan applications are typically supported by Oqood registration together with proof that the purchase meets the qualifying value and any paid-value conditions applied at the time of application. Those conditions are updated from time to time. Buyers who prefer a simpler file can wait for the title deed at handover in Q2 2029. The sequence is explained step by step in the off-plan Golden Visa guide.
The plan is 10% on booking plus the 4% DLD fee, seven further 10% instalments dated from September 2025 to June 2028, and a closing 20% at 100% construction completion in June 2029. Cumulative payments cross 50% of the purchase price at the fourth instalment in February 2027, which is where most buyers meet the paid-value conditions commonly applied to off-plan files.
The RERA Independent Progress Monitoring Report dated 2 June 2026 records 7.83% certified progress, up from 6.5% at the previous inspection, with enabling, piling and foundation works under way. Certified figures move between inspections, so the current percentage is published on the Rosehill construction updates page.
Yes. Rosehill is freehold and open to all nationalities, with ownership registered at the Dubai Land Department, which is a requirement for property-based Golden Visa eligibility.

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 every requirement in force at the time of application, including ownership verification and standard background checks. The 10-year renewable term and what the residency does and does not cover are set out in the Golden Visa benefits guide.
