Masaar 3 Phase 6 (Dalia) in one minute
Dalia is the newest release at Masaar 3, the third Masaar forest community Arada is building in Rowdat, Sharjah. Arada’s own Dalia page now shows it as selling: 338 homes, townhouses and villas of 2 to 4 bedrooms, from AED 2,070,000, on a 5/30/65 payment plan.23
We published this page on 30 September with a broker price sheet marked as unconfirmed. Arada’s four listed prices turned out to be the same, to the dirham. Two things changed: the home count is 338, not the 210+ one broker site gave, and the payment plan is now Arada’s own. One thing is still open: Arada has published no handover date.
Dalia Masaar 3 price list
These are Arada’s listed prices, checked on 7 October 2026.23 The price per square foot is our arithmetic.
| Home | Size | Arada-listed price | Per sq ft |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 BR townhouse | 1,959 sq ft | AED 2,070,000 | about AED 1,057 |
| 3 BR townhouse | 2,289 sq ft | AED 2,665,000 | about AED 1,164 |
| 4 BR townhouse | 2,559 sq ft | AED 3,060,000 | about AED 1,196 |
| 4 BR villa | 3,765 sq ft | AED 4,705,000 | about AED 1,250 |
Arada describes more layouts than it prices. For those, only one broker site gives numbers, as ranges it calls “expected”: a 3 BR corner townhouse at AED 3.0M to 3.2M, a 4 BR corner townhouse at AED 3.6M to 3.85M and a larger 4 BR villa at AED 5.5M to 6.05M.3 Treat those as broker figures until Arada lists them.
One warning from before the launch still applies: a broker page carries a block of Layan prices (from AED 1.98M) under its Dalia heading, and search engines quote them as Dalia prices.1 They are not.
Dalia layouts and sizes
Arada’s page describes the layouts in its buyer questions.23 Sizes are Arada’s approximate figures.
| Home | Plot | Built-up area | What it adds |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 BR townhouse, middle | 1,539 sq ft | 1,920 sq ft | Maid’s room with ensuite, closed kitchen, private backyard |
| 3 BR townhouse, middle | 1,705 sq ft | 2,245 to 2,285 sq ft | Third bedroom, larger upper landing |
| 3 BR townhouse, corner | 2,320 sq ft | Not given | End of row, larger garden, second balcony |
| 4 BR townhouse, middle | 1,705 sq ft | 2,557 sq ft | Fourth bedroom |
| 4 BR townhouse, corner | 2,650 sq ft | 3,319 sq ft | Home office, side garden |
| 4 BR villa, Type 1 | 3,244 sq ft | 3,465 sq ft | Semi-detached, rooftop terrace, study |
| 4 BR villa, Type 2 | 4,430 sq ft | 4,210 sq ft | Detached, private pool, majlis, ground-floor guest suite |
The listing sizes in the price table (1,959 sq ft for the 2 BR, for example) are slightly larger than the built-up areas in Arada’s own text. Ask which figure your SPA uses.
Arada’s header says 2 to 4 bedrooms, but its FAQ also mentions 5 bedroom villa layouts with a pool and majlis. No 5 BR home is listed for sale on the page.
All Masaar 3 phases at a glance
Masaar 3 is planned as 4,000 homes in eight phases.6 This is what each release has shown so far, with who published each figure.
| Release | Released | Homes | Starting price | Status |

| Dalia | Oct 2026 | 33823 | AED 2,070,000 (Arada-listed)23 | Selling now |
Arada confirmed that the first four releases sold out in its Layan release.9 Its Dalia page also shows two earlier releases as 99% and 98% sold, without naming them.23
Phase 6 or Phase 7? Arada’s April 2026 release called Layan the fifth phase, and brokers call Dalia Phase 6. The FAQ on Arada’s Dalia page calls it Phase 7. Either way, Dalia is the release that follows Layan.
Dalia vs Layan and Sedra: price per phase
| Home | Arada-listed, earlier phase | Dalia, Arada-listed | Difference |
|---|---|---|---|
| 2 BR townhouse | Sedra AED 1,915,00011 | AED 2,070,000 | +8.1% |

Each Masaar 3 release has started a little higher than the one before. The percentages are our arithmetic on Arada’s figures.
On resale, Bayut’s August 2026 index puts Masaar 3 at AED 1,133 per sq ft overall, AED 957 for 2 BR homes and AED 1,240 in the Layan cluster.16 Dalia’s 2 BR works out at about AED 1,057 per sq ft, roughly 10% above the 2 BR resale average. Delivered Masaar 1 homes averaged AED 991 per sq ft.17 Index figures are asking prices on portal listings, not registered sales.
Dalia payment plan
Arada’s Dalia page shows 5% down payment, 30% during construction and 65% on completion.23 On a AED 2,070,000 townhouse that is about AED 103,500 down, AED 621,000 during construction and AED 1,345,500 on completion. That is our arithmetic.
Compared with the 5/35/60 plan Arada showed for Layan, Dalia moves 5 points of the price to completion.10 Other versions still circulate: a broker blog splits the first 10% as 5% down and 5% after one month, and Property Finder’s Masaar 3 listing shows 10/55/35.215 The plan written into your SPA is the only one that counts.
Masaar 3 Phase 6 handover date
Arada’s Dalia page gives no handover date. Both broker sites give December 2029.3 For Masaar 3 as a whole, dates range from Arada’s “first homes in 2027” (August 2025) to Property Finder’s Q4 2028.615
Two things are worth knowing before you plan around a date. Arada said construction contracts for the first six phases would be awarded within three months of 6 April 2026; we have found no award announcement.9 And in Masaar 1, Sendian was targeted for Q1 2023 and handed over from about January 2024.18 Any handover date is a target, not a promise, and with 65% due on completion the date decides when most of the money is due.
Dalia location in Masaar 3
Arada places Masaar 3 in the Rowdat district of Sharjah, between Masaar 2 and a schools district, with direct access to Khorfakkan Road near Emirates Road.6 Its Dalia page quotes a 15 minute drive to Sharjah Airport and 20 minutes to Dubai International, and maps a swimmable forest lagoon with a waterfall, courts, an outdoor cinema, a mosque, a duck pond, a Zad food truck park, a community centre, a family pool and a ladies-only pool.23 Reigate Grammar School Masaar, a 2,700-place campus near Masaar 2 and 3, is due to take its first pupils in September 2027.19
How to register for Dalia (checklist)
- Go to the source first. Arada takes registrations on its Dalia page and on 800 ARADA.
- If you use a broker, check who you are paying. The Dalia microsites we found name no company and show no licence. Ask for the agency’s name and ORN, and pay only against an Arada receipt.
- Get any refund terms in writing. Broker terms describe an EOI cheque of 5%, or AED 50,000 to 100,000, as “100% refundable”.4522 Those are the broker’s words, not Arada’s.
- Ask for the handover date in the SPA, and what happens if it slips.
- Ask about service charges. No figure has been published for Masaar 3.
