Century Tower
1 BR · Apartment
About the building
27-storey residential building in Business Bay. Developer — AMBS Real Estate Development. Architect — Arkiplan Consulting Architects & Engineers.
Where it is
Business Bay
The canal district next to Downtown: conceived as offices, built mostly as apartments, now one of the most tenanted parts of the city.
- central location at a discount
- short-let on the canal
- deep tenant demand
What to check: Quality varies enormously between towers here. Walk the building on a normal weekday and get three years of service charge history before you offer — in Business Bay the building matters far more than the district average.

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 276 000; a loan of AED 1 104 000 over 25 years at 3.75–4.99% a year comes to roughly AED 5 700–6 400 a month. A non-resident puts down from 40% (AED 552 000) and pays about AED 4 300–4 800 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 55 200 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 620 000 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.
