Abu Dhabi Housing Authority opens booking for 1,500 West Baniyas homes

The Abu Dhabi Housing Authority has announced the opening of bookings for 1,500 residential units in the West Baniyas Housing Project, developed by Modon Properties. The project marks a strategic shift in how citizens acquire housing benefits by allowing beneficiaries to directly select their preferred homes. The development is designed for UAE nationals and offers an integrated community ecosystem. Construction is scheduled for completion in the second quarter of 2027. All units accommodate future physical expansions to support evolving family sizes.

The authority has adopted a phased digital booking mechanism based on citizenship benefit types, family size, and financial capacity. The initial phase opens exclusively to housing grant beneficiaries and their eligible family members, followed by a second phase for deferred housing purchase loan recipients, who may select homes matching their loan allocation or upgrade to higher-tier units by paying the difference. The final phase will open to standard housing purchase loan recipients under established regulatory guidelines. Eligible citizens will receive personalised access links via SMS.
