JVC
Jumeirah Village Circle: the highest-volume apartment district in Dubai, and the default answer for yield.
- strong gross yields
- deep tenant demand
- accessible entry prices
What to check: Building quality here ranges from genuinely good to genuinely poor and the district average hides both. Visit on a normal weekday, check the parking and the lifts, and pull three years of service charge history before you offer.

The median is taken from listings in our database, not from registered sales.
JVC area guide →Is the property ready or still under construction?
According to the listing, the property is ready. The project passport gives 2017 as the completion year.
Can this lot be bought with a mortgage, and what would the payment be?
UAE banks lend on ready homes to both residents and non-residents. For this lot: a resident puts down from 20%, here AED 340 000; a loan of AED 1 360 000 over 25 years at 3.75–4.99% a year comes to roughly AED 7 000–7 900 a month. A non-resident puts down from 40% (AED 680 000) and pays about AED 5 200–6 000 a month. The bank approves the rate and the amount.
Run your own numbers in the mortgage calculator →What costs come on top of the price?
The main one is the Dubai Land Department registration fee: 4% of the price, AED 68 000 for this lot. On a ready property the registration trustee fee of AED 4 200 is added. With a mortgage the bank charges for processing and valuation, and the mortgage is registered for a separate fee. I will send the full calculation for this lot on request.
Does buying this lot qualify for a UAE residence visa?
On price the lot clears the classic threshold for the two-year residence visa, AED 750 000. It is AED 300 001 short of the 10-year Golden Visa, granted from AED 2 000 000. The threshold is measured by the Dubai Land Department valuation, not the contract, and only freehold qualifies.
