6. ROI calculations for BURJ VIEW RESIDENCE and for the area
For studios, based on actual DLD data for the last 12 months:
- For the building:
- Average purchase price: AED 13,329/m².
- Average rental rate: AED 1,181/m².
- Direct calculated yield (brutto ROI): 8.85%.
- For the area:
- Average purchase price: AED 15,984/m².
- Average rental rate: AED 1,116/m².
- Area brutto ROI: 6.99%.
Adjustment for associated costs:
Formal entry costs in Dubai include DLD fees, brokerage commissions, etc. In aggregate, this reduces the effective yield by roughly 7–8%. Accordingly, the adjusted (net) yield for an investor will be:
- For the building: ≈ 8.3–8.6% (after costs, if entering at current average building prices).
- For the area: 6.5–6.8% (adjusted ROI from the area’s average price).
7. Fair price range for an investor (target yield 7–8% per annum)
- To achieve a net yield of 7–8% per annum on a studio, given the DLD‑confirmed rents for BURJ VIEW RESIDENCE, the investment‑attractive price range is:
- Lower bound: 1,181 / 0.08 = AED 14,762/m².
- Upper bound: 1,181 / 0.07 = AED 16,871/m².
Comparison: the current average transaction price is AED 13,329/m², meaning that buying at market already delivers a yield above 8% per annum. For the area, the fair price range would be higher, but at current prices the actual ROI in the area is at the 7% threshold.
8. Brief conclusions on liquidity and outlook
Studios in BURJ VIEW RESIDENCE have very high liquidity and are showing rapid price growth (from a developing base), lagging the area in price but outperforming it in rental levels. Stable rental activity and rental rates above the area average confirm the investment appeal and the ability to dispose of the asset quickly if needed. The yield premium to the area based on actual transactions over the last 12 months exceeds 1.8 percentage points (8.85% vs 6.99%).
The market dynamics for both the building and the wider area are positive. At the current price and rental levels, BURJ VIEW RESIDENCE is attractive for investors targeting a net yield above the market average. Over a 3–5 year horizon, we can expect price growth to stabilise, while maintaining strong demand for studios and further upside potential in rental rates.
