Dubai · Canal-side and central
Business Bay sits immediately south of Downtown along the Dubai Canal — a mixed commercial and residential district that has become one of the city's densest apartment markets.
Apartments, heavily weighted to one- and two-bedroom units, with a large and growing supply and a wide spread of building quality.
Inland, on the canal. Beaches are around 20 minutes away.
Strong demand from professionals working in and around Downtown, plus short-let demand from its proximity to the centre.
About 20 minutes to Dubai International, with metro and canal-side walkways.
Investors wanting central location at below-Downtown pricing.
Supply is heavy and towers are close together, so the view you pay a premium for today can be built out. Check what is approved on the adjacent plots.
Freehold and open to foreign ownership. Given how densely the district is built and how much remains under construction, confirm what is approved on neighbouring plots — a canal view is only worth paying for if it survives.
