Who better than our carefully selected community specialists to offer some inside information on what it is to live in a neighbourhood? We have asked agents who specialise in a community to throw some light on buying and renting patterns in the chosen area.
Khaled Othman
Managing Director, Fajer Alemarat Real Estate
Khaled has worked in Sharjah since 2004 and focused on Al Khan since 2007. His firm has developed several projects in Al Khan such as Al Marwa Tower 3 and Bukhamseen Tower 3. The company also manages several residential buildings in Al Khan.
Home to the Al Khan Lagoon, Al Khan is one of the most sought-after communities in Sharjah for waterfront views. A prime district, it is also conveniently located to Dubai.
Searches for Apartments (98%) vs. Villas (2%)
The main reason for this is because Al Khan offers limited villas for rent with limited facilities. Al Khan predominantly consists of buildings and towers. That’s why there are more opportunities to live in apartments in Al Khan.
Searches for Buy (14%) vs Rent (86%)
Al Khan comes second after Al Nahda in terms of searches for rental units in Sharjah. It has a unique advantage of being both close to Dubai and Sharjah’s city centre.
Who Lives Here? Families (23%) Singles (3%7) Couples (40%)
Couples and singles prefer to live here owing to the new daily Dubai-Sharjah Ferry from Al Khan which takes the hassle out of commuting for those working in the neighbouring emirate. Families enjoy the scenic walkway facing the Al Khan Lagoon.
Most searched building: Asas Tower
The majority of searches in Al Khan are centred on Asas Tower due to its strategic location. It easily connects with Sharjah’s city centre as well as the road leading to Dubai. It also stands out from other buildings in the area in terms of high build quality and luxury finishing.
Most searched keywords: brand new
Most of our clients are now looking for new properties and Al Khan includes several new buildings that were delivered in 2019, such as Abu Khamseen Tower 3 on Al Khan Street.
