1. Definition of the area and data structure
Actual location: the building 555 Park Views is registered in the DLD database as “555 PARK VIEWS” and is located in Al Barsha South Fifth, within the Jumeirah Village Triangle master project.
Scope of the building database: 106 transactions have been recorded in DLD_transactions for this building, which allows for meaningful analytics both for the building itself and in comparison with the wider area.
2. Transaction dynamics and sale prices for the building
In recent quarters there has been steady sales activity for 2-bedroom apartments in the building, with no signs of a “frozen” asset:
– 2024 Q1: 4 transactions, average price 11,903 AED/m².
– 2024 Q2: 1 transaction, price 12,402 AED/m².
– 2024 Q3: 1 transaction, price 12,231 AED/m².
– 2025 Q3 (preliminary transactions, possibly off-plan): 6 transactions, average price declined to 10,652 AED/m².
Compared with the broader Al Barsha South Fifth area over the same period:
– Average price per m² in the area over the last 12 months: 15,763 AED/m².
– Quarterly figures in the area are higher than in the building, with the gap ranging from +10–40%. In recent quarters the area has been consistently more expensive.
3. Rental market: analysis for the building and the area
For the building, 25 actual rental contracts (all apartment types) are available for the last 12 months. There is no separate breakdown for 2-bedroom units, but the average rental rate for the building can be reliably calculated:
– Average annual rent per m² for the building over the last 12 months: 1,096 AED/m².
– In the last quarter the average rate increased to 1,219 AED/m² (Q4 2025).
For the entire Al Barsha South Fifth area:
– Average rent per m² over the last 12 months: 931 AED/m², meaning the building rents slightly above the area average.
– Over recent years the area has shown a strong upward trend in rental rates: from 400–500 AED/m² (2020–2021) to 900–1,000+ AED/m² in recent quarters.
4. Recalculation of metrics for an investor (ROI, fair price range)
Current average purchase price for the building over the year: 10,652 AED/m².
Average rent: 1,096 AED/m²/year.
Average gross yield (ROI) for the building (before costs): 10.3% per annum.
Area level (Al Barsha South Fifth): ROI = 931 / 15,763 ≈ 5.9%.
Adjusting for typical transaction costs (around 7% on entry), the net yield (ROI net) for the building is estimated at around 9.6% per annum, and around 5.5% for the area.
Fair price range for an investor targeting a 7–8% annual yield (based on DLD rental data):
– Upper bound (8%): 1,096 / 0.08 ≈ 13,700 AED/m².
– Lower bound (7%): 1,096 / 0.07 ≈ 15,650 AED/m².
The current average level for the building (10,652 AED/m²) is significantly below the “fair price” for a 7–8% yield: the market is offering a substantial discount relative to these investment benchmarks, which is a rare opportunity for a rent-focused investor.
5. Liquidity and outlook
The building is actively traded and leased; the number of contracts and price levels clearly indicate stable demand both for purchase and for rent.
Rental profitability for the building is significantly higher not only compared with the area (by 4–5 percentage points), but also relative to average market levels for Dubai.
The growth in rental rates in the area from 2021 to 2025 exceeds 100%, which is a strong indicator of demand.
Conclusion for the asset: 555 Park Views stands out as an investment-oriented building where it is possible to acquire an apartment with a current yield (based on DLD data) of 9–10% per annum at an average purchase price noticeably below the area benchmark. This situation may be driven by the building’s recent completion, the apartment mix, or market underpricing, and can offer attractive upside if rental rates continue to grow or if sale prices converge towards the area level. Liquidity is high, and the growth outlook is moderately positive.
