Al Furjan

Three factors: (1) an operational metro station (Route 2020), one of the most critical features for buy-to-let; (2) an accessible entry price (1,200-1,700 AED per sqft) versus the neighbouring Marina (2,500+); (3) an established, stable area with 30,000 residents and 182 projects — consistent rental demand year-round.

Long-term rental yields for studios and 1BR units range between 7% and 8%, for 2BR units between 6.5% and 7.5%, and for villas between 5.5% and 6.5%. Properties within a 10-minute walk of the metro command a clear premium.

Yes — it is one of the most established family communities in Dubai. It has international schools (The Arbor School, Arcadia Global), nurseries, parks and a community centre (Pavilion) in every village. The buildings are low-rise and the streets are quiet.

From Al Furjan to Downtown Dubai it is about a 25-minute drive via E11. To Dubai Marina it is just 10 minutes. To DXB and DWC it is 20 minutes each. With the metro you can reach Expo City in a single ride.
