Grand Central Hotel

Remraam

A low-rise budget community deep in Dubailand: four storeys, genuine greenery and one of the lowest entry prices in the city.

• highest percentage yield
• floor area at minimum cost
• working in the south-west

What to check: The metro is not coming here, and every tenant needs a car — which narrows the pool both for letting and for resale. Model the yield with real vacancy and with the landscaping service charge, not from the gross rent quoted in the listing.
