Off-Plan 2-Bedroom Apartments for Sale in Dubai

In the Mira Developments portfolio, private-pool two-bedroom layouts are found in Trussardi Residences and Trussardi Residences Phase II in Al Furjan. Both deliver every home fully furnished with Trussardi Casa interiors, and the metro is close enough to reach on foot in a minute. Anyone looking for an off-plan two-bedroom apartment in Dubai with its own pool can ask the sales team which pool layouts are currently on offer.

Most are not: off-plan apartments in Dubai are handed over unfurnished, and buyers pay for furniture and fit-out after completion. Branded residences are the main exception. Every two-bedroom apartment Mira Developments sells in Al Furjan, across Trussardi Residences, Trussardi Residences Phase II and Richmond District, is delivered fully furnished, ready to occupy or let from handover. For an investor set to buy an off-plan 2-bedroom in Dubai, that removes the furnishing budget and the setup time before the first rent.

Gross rental yields for 2-bedroom apartments in Dubai typically range from 6% to 8%, depending on community, floor level, view and furnishing standard. Communities such as Jumeirah Village Circle and Al Furjan deliver yields at the higher end due to competitive entry prices relative to achievable rents. Branded and fully furnished units, such as those in Mira Developments' Trussardi Residences Phase II in Al Furjan, command rental premiums of 10% to 20% above unfurnished equivalents, improving net returns. Yields vary by market cycle and should be assessed against the specific unit’s purchase price and projected annual rent.

Yes. Foreign nationals of any citizenship can purchase freehold property in Dubai’s designated freehold zones, which include the majority of communities where off-plan 2-bedroom apartments are available. These include Al Furjan, Business Bay, Dubai Hills Estate, Jumeirah Village Circle and Downtown Dubai. Ownership is registered with the Dubai Land Department, which issues a title deed in the buyer’s name. No residency visa or UAE nationality is required.

The primary government fee is the 4% DLD transfer fee, calculated on the purchase price and payable at the time of title deed registration. During the off-plan phase, a nominal Oqood (pre-registration) fee applies to register the buyer’s interest in the property. There is no annual property tax, no stamp duty, no capital gains tax and no rental income tax in Dubai. This cost structure is among the most competitive globally for residential property investment.

Branded residences typically achieve resale premiums of 20% to 35% above comparable non-branded properties. The premium reflects design consistency, furniture quality, service standards and the perceived exclusivity associated with the brand. A branded 2-bedroom apartment, such as those in Mira Developments' Trussardi Residences, includes complete furnishings, premium appliances and hotel-level services as standard. This eliminates the fit-out cost that non-branded buyers must budget separately. The turnkey format also accelerates leasing timelines, as tenants can move in from the day of handover without additional furnishing requirements.

Dubai’s Real Estate Regulatory Agency (RERA) mandates several protections for off-plan purchasers. Developers must register projects with RERA and open designated escrow accounts before commencing sales. Buyer payments are deposited into these accounts and released to the developer only upon verified construction milestones. RERA also requires developers to demonstrate land ownership and construction financing before receiving a sales permit. In cases of project cancellation, escrow funds are returned to buyers.

The 10-year Golden Visa requires a minimum property value of AED 2 million. The property must be freehold, and the investment must be maintained for the duration of the visa. Off-plan purchases qualify at the point of registration with the Dubai Land Department, subject to meeting the minimum value requirement. Many off-plan 2-bedroom apartments in mid-market and premium communities fall within or above this threshold, making them a practical route to long-term UAE residency.

Dubai offers significantly lower entry prices per square foot than comparable global financial centres. Combined with the absence of property tax, income tax and capital gains tax, the total cost of ownership in Dubai is substantially lower than in London, Hong Kong or Singapore. This pricing differential continues to attract international investors seeking yield-generating assets in a regulated, transparent market with strong population growth fundamentals.
