Manchester City Yas Residences, a newly launched waterfront development by Ohana Development, recorded AED 6 billion in sales within 72 hours of launch. The announcement marks one of the fastest-selling luxury residential project launches in Abu Dhabi’s recent real estate cycle.
The project is positioned along the Yas Canal within Yas Island, a prime waterfront destination known for tourism, entertainment, and premium residential developments. The location continues to attract both end-users and investors due to its proximity to key leisure attractions and infrastructure.
Sales data indicates a diverse buyer mix, with approximately 35% Emirati investors and 65% expatriate and international buyers. This reflects sustained foreign interest in Abu Dhabi’s property market, supported by long-term residency options and investor-friendly regulations.
The sales milestone was achieved within the first 72 hours of the project’s official launch, highlighting strong immediate demand for branded and lifestyle-oriented developments in the emirate.
According to Husein Salem, the rapid sales performance reflects investor confidence in Abu Dhabi’s real estate sector and the appeal of integrated lifestyle communities. The project combines waterfront living with sports-oriented design, aligned with global trends in wellness-focused real estate.
The performance also signals continued demand for off-plan luxury properties, particularly those offering unique branding and experiential living concepts.
The development spans approximately 1.67 million square meters, with more than 55% allocated to green and landscaped spaces, emphasizing sustainability and open environments.
Key features include:
Waterfront promenade with retail and dining
Marina and water sports facilities
Fitness and recovery centers
Resort-style pools and wellness amenities
The project is also positioned as a sports-centric residential community, leveraging its branding collaboration with Manchester City to differentiate itself in a competitive luxury segment.
The strong launch performance reinforces Abu Dhabi’s position as a growing hub for high-end real estate investment. It aligns with broader market trends where branded residences and lifestyle-driven communities are outperforming traditional developments.
Industry expectations suggest that additional inventory releases may follow, depending on sustained demand levels.
The rapid sell-out of Manchester City Yas Residences highlights continued liquidity in Abu Dhabi’s off-plan market and growing global interest in premium waterfront developments. With government-backed stability and evolving investor incentives, the emirate’s real estate sector is expected to maintain steady momentum through 2026.
