Properties Under AED 5,000,000 for Sale in Dubai

Yes. This price segment captures the broadest buyer and tenant pool in the emirate. Gross rental yields for apartments averaged approximately 7% across Dubai in 2025, with studios and compact units in mid-market communities often exceeding 8%. Citywide price appreciation has been sustained over several consecutive years. The sub-AED 5 million band accounts for the majority of all residential transactions, providing strong liquidity at resale. Mira Developments offers branded, fully furnished residences within this range, including Trussardi Residences Phase II in Al Furjan.

Yes. Foreign nationals may purchase freehold property in designated zones across Dubai without a local sponsor or partner. Ownership is registered through the Dubai Land Department, which issues a title deed in the buyer’s name. Freehold areas span a wide range of communities, from waterfront developments such as Dubai Marina to suburban districts including Al Furjan, Jumeirah Village Circle, Dubai Hills Estate and Dubai South.

Dubai does not impose annual property tax, rental income tax or capital gains tax on residential real estate. The primary government cost at purchase is a one-time DLD transfer fee of 4% of the property’s sale price, typically paid by the buyer. Additional costs include nominal registration, title deed issuance and trustee office fees. This cost structure is among the lowest in major global property markets.

Properties valued at AED 2 million or above qualify the owner for a 10-year renewable Golden Visa. This threshold applies to the total property value recorded on the DLD title deed. Investors may combine multiple properties under one name to reach the AED 2 million mark. The visa permits family sponsorship and does not require continuous UAE residence.

Yields vary by property type and location. Studios and one-bedroom apartments in communities such as Jumeirah Village Circle, Dubai Silicon Oasis and Al Furjan typically achieve gross yields of 7% to 8,5%. Two-bedroom apartments in established areas such as Business Bay and Dubai Marina generally deliver 5,5% to 7%. Townhouses and smaller villas tend to yield between 4,5% and 6%. Branded residences with furnished interiors and hotel-level services often command rental premiums over comparable unfurnished units, supporting stronger returns.

Each approach suits different investor priorities. Off-plan properties typically offer lower entry prices, flexible payment plans spread across construction periods and the potential for price appreciation between purchase and handover. Ready properties provide rental income from the date of handover, lower execution risk and the ability to inspect the finished unit. Mira Developments offers off-plan projects such as Trussardi Residences Phase II and projects approaching handover such as Trussardi Residences Phase I.

Branded residences are developed in partnership with an internationally recognised design or lifestyle house, with interiors furnished to a standardised specification. This model typically delivers higher resale liquidity, stronger rental premiums and consistent finish quality compared to non-branded equivalents. Independent consultancies have indicated that branded residences can command a premium of 20% to 35% over comparable non-branded units in similar locations. Mira Developments' portfolio includes branded projects with Trussardi, Gianfranco Ferré Home, Bentley Home, ELIE SAAB and other international partners, each delivered fully furnished with hotel-level services.
