The megacity has a track record of turning its beautiful waterfront developments into global investment hot spots. It knows how to capitalize by combining charismatic waterfront settlements with luxuries and social facilities.
Whether you take the example of Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Marina and JBR, it shows the waterfront settlements here continue fetching exceptional returns. This beachfront development by Nakheel keeps the expectation equally high.
Let us give you one example for your better understanding. JBR was launched at around AED 800 per sq. ft.. Now, properties at JBR Beach are selling for over AED 2,500 per sq. ft. Capital appreciation and ROI are astonishingly wonderful, aren’t they? Dubai Island is predicted to follow a similar upward trajectory.
Another major reason for the investment potential of Dubai waterfront properties going skyward is the scarcity. Yes, these island-themed waterfront units are becoming scarce now. It is a fact.
New developments are happening, but not as much as the demand is growing. It is increasing the property prices. So, it is the right time to own one as these properties, in the future, would enjoy tremendous capital appreciation growth and give a better rental yield undoubtedly. Early investors are always in a prime position to enjoy remarkable returns.
Yes, this beach inside the magnificent waterfront community is pet-friendly. It is a tourist destination with popular food and beverage outlets and a jogging track.
The beach looks and feels more relaxing with the thoughtful addition of open green spaces along the pristine beach, beautifully landscaped walkways, public toilets, and tree-shaded seating areas.
The beach with its silver, powdery, pristine sand makes the area suitable for both short-term and long-term investment opportunities. Not only are the residents happy to wake up to the serene view, the vacationers also prefer the location for short-term rentals.
Now is the appointed time for securing a property along the Dubai Island beach.
The waterfront properties in Dubai are marked by high demand and limited inventory (demand is surpassing the supply), and it works in favour of the investors if they book their interest at the right time. APIL Properties team is looking forward to discussing the project and opportunities better if you are willing to take the matter ahead. Good luck!
