RIVAN Project New Capital City

RIVAN Project New Capital City: the finished four-bedroom costs less per metre than the three

RIVAN Project New Capital City is by Altameer Arabian Developments in R7, plot F5, on about 16.5 feddans. The project data describes just 15 buildings, around 80% of the land given to greenery, lakes and amenities, and a pedestrian plaza of about 5,000 m² with no internal streets. Each building has a rooftop clubhouse with a gym, spa, pool and barbecue area. Flats are due in September 2028, with 12% up front and twelve years to pay.

Prices from studio to four bedrooms

The developer's October 2026 prices:

• Studios (54 up to 75 m²) start at 4.23 million.
• One-bedrooms (77 up to 94 m²) start at 5.16 million (near 67,000 per metre).
• Two-bedrooms (122 up to 170 m²) start at 8.17 million, at much the same metre.
• Three-bedrooms (155 up to 375 m²) start at 11.83 million, roughly 76,300 per metre.
• Four-bedrooms (212 up to 375 m²) start at 13.78 million, so near 65,000 per metre.

On finishing, per the project data: the four-bedrooms are fully finished, while studios, one-, two- and three-bedrooms vary from unit to unit.

Why the four-bedroom is the find

The cheapest four-bedroom is 212 m², only about 1.95 million above the cheapest three-bedroom (155 m²), buying 57 metres and a bedroom more. The four-bedrooms are fully finished while the three-bedrooms are mixed, so a three-bedroom may need spending on its finish. A metre about 11,000 cheaper, and a ready finish. Ask about floor and frontage, as the gap may also be position.

Odd figures within the types

The dearest studio, 8.25 million, costs more than the dearest one-bedroom (7.83 million), though the largest studio is 75 m² and the one-bedroom 94. And the dearest three-bedroom and four-bedroom are both 375 m² at exactly 23.25 million, most likely the same unit recorded twice. And the dearest two-bedroom, 15.4 million for 170 m², sits about 1.6 million above the cheapest four-bedroom, near 90,600 a metre, so the large two-bedroom is no bargain here. Ask the developer about those two by name before relying on them.

Twelve years of instalments

The cheapest studio takes some 507,000 at signing and roughly 25,800 monthly after. The cheapest three-bedroom needs close to 1.42 million down and about 72,300 monthly, the cheapest four-bedroom about 1.65 million and 84,200. Handover is about two years off, so around 26% is paid by then, near 3.08 million for the cheapest three-bedroom and 3.58 million for the cheapest four, and ten more years of payments once you are living there.

RIVAN beside its R7 neighbours

On three-bedrooms RIVAN is among the dearest around, and its neighbours hand over before or at about the same time:

• Boardwalk, 700 m away: three-bedrooms from 8.4 million for 150 m² and four-bedrooms from 10.2 million for 204 m², ready October 2028, a month after RIVAN.
• The Loft, 800 m away: three-bedrooms from 174 m² near 9.27 million, around 53,300 a metre, due September 2027, though over 6 years.
• Venia, 1.1 km away: three-bedrooms from 136 m² near 5.34 million, close to 39,200 a metre, due August 2027.
• Catalan, 600 m away: three-bedrooms of 175 m² near 5.94 million, about 34,000 a metre, but on 20% down over 5 years.

So RIVAN's cheapest three-bedroom is about 3.4 million above Boardwalk's for a similar size, and more than double Venia's. Four-bedrooms too: Boardwalk is about 3.58 million cheaper. The month is closer: a Boardwalk three-bedroom runs about 70,000 over 9 years against 72,300 here, and Venia's about 52,800 over 8. What RIVAN adds is a rooftop clubhouse on every building, finished four-bedrooms and 80% greenery; weigh that against the gap.

One and two bedrooms beside the neighbours

RIVAN's one-bedroom opens at 5.16 million for 77 m². Serrano's is 65 m² near 4.62 million, due June 2028, and Midtown Sky offers a bigger one, 90 m² near 4.84 million, though due April 2030. RIVAN's two-bedroom opens at 8.17 million for 122 m², against a 125 m² two-bedroom near 4.92 million at Venia, 111 m² for 6.7 million at Boardwalk and 130 m² near 8.38 million at Castle Landmark, due December 2030. Even on small sizes, RIVAN sits at the dear end of R7.

And those due later

Talah, 300 m away, starts its three-bedrooms at 151 m² for 10.56 million, due September 2030, two years after RIVAN. Castle Landmark has four-bedrooms from 197 m² at 9.49 million, December 2030. Even those years away are cheaper than RIVAN on three and four bedrooms.

Owners' listings

October 2026 had 5 resale offers: a one-bedroom of 66 m² asking 3.3 million, two-bedrooms sized 118 up to 179 m² listed at 4.31 up to 5.5 million, a three-bedroom of 207 m² asking roughly 10.35 million, and a studio of 65 m² asking near 4.51 million. The resale two-bedrooms come to about 31,000 to 36,000 a metre, roughly half the developer's price, with handover still in 2028. Most likely that is what has been paid so far, with instalments outstanding; ask for an account statement before comparing. At 10.35 million for 207 m², the resale three-bedroom undercuts the developer's cheapest by about 1.5 million while adding 52 metres.

Rivan Square and Swiss Belresidences

The project holds two more phases: Rivan Square, the mall with shops, clinics and offices and a private gate for RIVAN residents, due February 2030, with clinics from about 77,000 a metre and shops from about 108,000, payable over 8 years after a 10% deposit; and Swiss Belresidences, hotel-managed flats in partnership with the Swiss-Belhotel chain. The developer's offer there: clinics sized 50 up to 78 m² (roughly 3.85 up to 5.81 million), shops sized 58 up to 92 m² (6.25 up to 16.7 million), and a 79 m² office near 8.16 million.

Picking a type

If you need four bedrooms in a finished flat to furnish at handover, the four-bedroom is the project's strongest type. If a studio is your pick, the cheapest costs some 25,800 monthly across 12 years, but compare it with Serrano's studio 600 m away, 53 m² for 3.89 million, also due September 2028.
