THE DATA

The numbers. No fluff.

Al Furjan is known as a "quiet rising star" — without the hype of other areas, but with a steady flow of rental demand from people who work in the Marina, JBR and now Expo City. The metro station (2020) attracted investors who value car-free access, which pushed yields above the average. The entry price (1,200-1,700 AED per sqft) is 30-40% lower than the neighbouring Marina districts, making the area an excellent buy-to-let option.
