A Ground + 5 Floors apartment building for AED 3.8 million, on a residential street in Al Hamidiya.
Plot 1067 in Humaideya-1, in Ajman’s middle sector, is a mid-rise residential project built for the city’s growing rental market. The goal is simple: homes that tenants want to live in and an owner who does not have to worry about the structure for decades.
What the owner wanted from a Ground + 5 apartment building
The owner wanted a modern mid-rise residential property that gives tenants comfort, gives the building structural strength and looks good from the street. In other words: a building that rents well and holds its value.
Building apartments in Al Hamidiya: the site and the street
Al Hamidiya is an established residential area in Ajman’s middle sector, with family homes and apartment buildings side by side. Buildings here sit close to their neighbours, so excavation, crane work and deliveries are planned to keep the street safe and the neighbours on side.
How we are building the Ground + 5 on Plot 1067, stage by stage
- Site excavation and foundation preparation. The ground is excavated and prepared for the reinforced concrete foundations.
- Reinforced concrete frame for six levels. Ground plus five floors, with post-tension concrete works carried out by specialist subcontractor Premium Post Tension.
- Blockwork, plaster and finishing. Walls and finishes follow the structure floor by floor.
- MEP installations. Mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems for every apartment.
- Façade, roof and waterproofing. External treatment and painting, then roof works and waterproofing to protect the building.
Ajman Municipality approvals for a Ground + 5 residential building
Every building in Ajman starts on paper. The consultant prepares the drawings, Ajman Municipality and Planning Department issues the building permit, and the work is then inspected at key stages as it goes up. On this project, Al-Sahel Engineering Consulting Office is the consultant, and our engineers work to Ajman Municipality’s standards at every stage.

Site preparation and foundation works are under way. We will add new photos to the gallery as the building rises.
Lessons for owners planning a rental building in Ajman
- Think like a tenant. Layouts, natural light and parking decide how fast apartments rent. Get them right on the drawings.
- Use specialists where it matters. Post-tension concrete is specialist work. Bringing in an experienced subcontractor protects quality and the programme.
- Protect the building from the top. Roof waterproofing is a small part of the budget and one of the biggest parts of long-term maintenance.
