Why Dubai Marina

Occupancy is consistently high because the Marina lets without effort, to long-term tenants and holiday renters alike. The cost is a mature market with less room for a step change in value.

What it costs to be here

Expect around AED 2,100 per sqft as a community average, with a realistic entry point near AED 1,100,000. Service charges run roughly AED 16 - 22 per sqft a year, and that comes straight off your net yield for as long as you own the property. Off-plan supply here is medium.

Getting around

Metro and tram on site, the beach a short walk and Marina Mall next door. Parking is the one genuine daily frustration.

Who buys here

Young professionals, holiday-let investors and buyers who want to not need a car.

Golden Visa in Dubai Marina

The ten-year UAE Golden Visa needs AED 2 million of freehold property. Entry stock here sits below that figure, so buyers targeting the visa either buy larger or combine several properties to reach it. Since the 2026 rules, mortgaged and off-plan units count toward the threshold. Check whether your plan qualifies.
