A GROWING DISTRICT. CHOOSE YOUR BUILDING. 07 / BUYING & INVESTMENT PERSPECTIVE
WHAT SUPPORTS THE DISTRICT Proximity to Dubai Science Park, nearby schools and hospitals, plus a range of apartment sizes, can support residential demand. Ready buildings sit alongside new handovers and further supply, including The Central Downtown. Competing homes in Arjan and nearby districts, vacancy risk and management quality also matter. Future gains are not assured.
WHAT TO COMPARE BEFORE BUYING Service charges, DEWA bills and cooling costs vary by building and community; we can share current details for any home you shortlist. Cooling providers, meters, fixed fees and rent inclusions vary by unit. Parking, move-in permits, pet rules and maintenance duties are set by each building. Off-plan registration, payment terms and handover timings vary by project.
