Properties from AED 2,000,000 for Sale in Dubai

Yes. Properties at or above the AED 2,000,000 threshold occupy a segment characterised by sustained international demand, Golden Visa eligibility and strong capital preservation. Dubai recorded over 205,000 residential sales transactions in 2025, reflecting continued depth across buyer categories. Gross rental yields for apartments in this bracket typically range from 5% to 8% depending on unit type, location and furnishing level. Branded residences within this price range have demonstrated pricing resilience and resale premiums over non-branded stock. This combination makes the segment attractive for investors seeking income and long-term value appreciation.

Purchasing property valued at AED 2,000,000 or more allows the investor to apply for a 10-year renewable UAE Golden Visa through the Dubai Land Department. The visa covers the investor, spouse, children and domestic staff. Ready and off-plan properties from approved developers qualify. Mortgaged properties are accepted provided the total property value meets the threshold based on the current DLD valuation. Multiple properties can be combined to reach the AED 2,000,000 minimum. This residency pathway does not require a local sponsor and permits the holder to live, work and own businesses across all seven emirates.

Yes. Foreign nationals of any nationality can acquire full freehold ownership in Dubai’s designated freehold zones. These zones encompass the majority of prime residential communities. Ownership is registered with the Dubai Land Department and grants unrestricted rights to hold, sell, lease, mortgage or transfer the property. The purchase process is supported by a regulated escrow system for off-plan transactions, providing transparency and legal protection for international buyers.

Dubai imposes a one-time transfer fee of 4% of the purchase price, payable to the Dubai Land Department upon registration. There is no annual property tax, no stamp duty, no rental income tax and no capital gains tax. Additional costs include nominal DLD administration and title deed issuance fees. Compared with most international property markets, Dubai’s fee structure is among the most competitive.

Gross rental yields across Dubai apartments averaged approximately 7% in 2025. Yields vary by location, unit size and property condition. Studios and one-bedroom apartments in mid-market communities can achieve 7% to 8,5% gross. Larger two- and three-bedroom units in premium locations typically deliver between 5,5% and 7%. Net yields after service charges, vacancy allowances and management costs generally sit 1.5 to 2 percentage points below gross figures. Branded and fully furnished units often command rental premiums over unfurnished stock, which can partially offset higher acquisition costs.

Branded residences are developed in formal partnership with an internationally recognised lifestyle, fashion or hospitality brand. The partnership typically covers interior design, furniture packages, amenity programming and ongoing service standards such as concierge, housekeeping and valet. Branded units command significant premiums over comparable non-branded properties, reflecting design consistency, stronger buyer recognition, hotel-level maintenance and improved resale liquidity. Mira Developments delivers fully furnished, turnkey residences in Dubai through partnerships with Trussardi, Bentley Home and John Richmond.

Dubai’s gross rental yields of approximately 6% to 8% for apartments exceed those in London, New York and Singapore, where yields typically range from 2% to 4,5%. The absence of rental income tax and capital gains tax further widens the net return gap. The AED’s peg to the US dollar provides currency stability for international investors. Dubai’s residential market recorded over 205,000 sales transactions in 2025, providing market depth and exit liquidity that compares favourably with most mature property markets.

Market conditions reflect a maturing cycle following record transaction volumes in recent years. Price growth is expected to moderate from the pace of 2024 and 2025, creating conditions where buyer selectivity becomes more important. Properties with strong location fundamentals, branded positioning and limited supply within their sub-market are expected to outperform. For investors entering at the AED 2,000,000 level, the combination of Golden Visa eligibility, competitive yields and a zero-tax environment continues to present a structurally attractive entry point.
