Emirate guide
Ras Al Khaimah property: the complete guide
One page on buying new in the emirate: the areas, what is being built, who is building it and how buyers pay.
Overview
The emirate at a glance
Ras Al Khaimah is the northernmost emirate of the UAE, with a long Gulf coastline, a string of man-made islands at Al Marjan and the Hajar Mountains inland. New residential projects cluster along the coast: on Al Marjan Island, at Al Hamra and at Mina Al Arab.
For buyers, that means a choice of beachfront apartments, townhouses and villas, most of them sold off-plan with payment plans spread over construction.
