TFG Real Estate has operated in Dubai for nearly two decades, building a portfolio centred on the hospitality and hotel apartment segment. The group has delivered multiple large-scale towers in Barsha Heights and Sports City, areas that attract long-term rental demand from professionals and corporate tenants working in the TECOM, Media City, and Internet City clusters.

The Sail project in Marsa Dubai (Dubai Marina) is one of the larger active DLD-registered projects in the marina precinct, with 1,019 units and 99% completion recorded in DLD data as of April 2026. TFG Marina, also in Marsa Dubai, is recorded as finished at 100% completion with 508 units.

Transaction volume and average price per sqft for TFG projects are not currently available in DLD records. Investors should check registered transaction data at dubailand.gov.ae for individual project-level pricing. Hotel apartment projects in Barsha Heights (Al Thanyah First) have historically achieved higher gross yields than standard residential units in the same area, given the short-term rental demand from the TECOM free zone ecosystem.

TFG Real Estate projects are spread across four primary communities in Dubai:

TFG also has 7 additional DLD-registered projects beyond the projects listed above. All area names and completion percentages are drawn from DLD project registration data as of April 2026.

DLD records show TFG Marina, Sky Bay Hotel, Sky Central, Grand Central, First Central, The Bridge, and The Matrix as finished projects at 100% completion, indicating these have reached handover stage. The Sail project in Dubai Marina is recorded at 99% completion and is approaching final handover.

TFG Real Estate has been active since 2007, giving investors a longer observable track record compared to developers registered post-2020. Investors should request the DLD project registration certificate and RERA escrow account details for any active TFG project before transferring funds.

Public property listing data for TFG Real Estate projects in 2026 shows units listed from approximately AED 600,000 for studio hotel apartments to AED 3,500,000 for two-bedroom units. The higher end of the range reflects Dubai Marina inventory in the Sail and TFG Marina towers.

Average registered price per sqft and average gross yield figures are not currently available in DLD transaction records for TFG projects. Hotel apartments in Al Thanyah First (Barsha Heights) have historically commanded yields above the Dubai market average due to the short-term rental market in the TECOM corridor. Investors should build independent yield models using current rental comparable data for each specific tower and zone.

Unit types across TFG projects are weighted toward studio and one-bedroom hotel apartments, a product type common in the Barsha Heights and Sports City portfolios. Larger two-bedroom units are present in the Dubai Marina portfolio. Hotel apartments typically come with hotel management agreements that govern the rental and operation of the unit.

Before purchasing a unit in any TFG Real Estate project, investors should verify the following directly with DLD and RERA:

• Current DLD license status. License number 583081 is registered with DLD under developer number 29. Verify the current active status and expiry date at dubailand.gov.ae. The license is scheduled for renewal in June 2026.
• Hotel management agreement terms. TFG hotel apartment projects typically include a hotel management agreement. Review the agreement terms, operator name, revenue-sharing structure, and exit clauses before committing to purchase.
• Project registration and escrow. Each project should have a DLD project number and a registered escrow account. Confirm the escrow agent name and account details before making any payment.
• Completion percentage for active projects. Sail is recorded at 99% in DLD records as of April 2026. Verify the current DLD-registered completion against site conditions and confirm the handover timeline with the developer.
• RERA project status. Check rera.gov.ae to confirm the project is not under supervision or listed for cancellation.
