Pricing Analysis
The agent did not disclose an original purchase price. The asking price is assessed against the Arjan 1-bedroom market.
Arjan 1-Bedroom Market Context
Property Finder area insights for Arjan report the 1-bedroom average at approximately AED 1,100,000 with an average rate of AED 1,402 per sq ft. The agent's asking price of AED 780,000 (AED 1,200 per sq ft) is:
- AED 320,000 (29%) below the 1-bedroom average
- AED 202 per sq ft (14%) below the average per-sqft rate
The lower-than-average price reflects several factors: Arjan Residences is a smaller, older building compared to the newer developments driving the area average; the unit at 650 sq ft is below the typical 1-bedroom range of 700 to 850 sq ft in Arjan; and the building has limited amenities compared to newer competitors.

The agent's rate of AED 1,200 per sq ft is within the range of these comparable transactions. The closest size comparison is the Lincoln Park A transaction at 760 sqft for AED 710,000 (AED 934 per sq ft), which is a larger unit at a lower per-sqft rate. However, Lincoln Park is an older development with different specifications. Gardenia Livings shows 1-bedroom transactions at AED 1,260 to AED 1,269 per sq ft for 709 to 738 sqft units, which are closer in size and rate to the agent's unit.
Negotiable Price
The agent has stated the price is negotiable, indicating room to move below AED 780,000. A vacant and ready property generates no rental income for the seller, which creates motivation to accept a lower offer. Buyers should consider making offers in the range informed by comparable DLD transactions.
Layout and Features
The apartment is 650 sq ft with an open kitchen layout, one bedroom, one bathroom (estimated) and a balcony. The open kitchen integrates with the living and dining area, creating a more spacious feel in a compact unit. The property is unfurnished, giving the buyer flexibility to fit out according to their preference.
At 650 sq ft, this unit is slightly smaller than the typical Arjan 1-bedroom range of 700 to 850 sq ft. The building data source (korter.ae) states that Arjan Residences unit sizes range from 804 to 1,649 sq ft, which does not include a 650 sq ft configuration. This discrepancy may reflect a data limitation on the building data platform, or the unit may have been reconfigured. The exact layout should be confirmed with the seller or building management.
Rental Yield Potential
Arjan reports average rental yields of approximately 8.69% according to Property Finder. One-bedroom apartments in Arjan typically rent for AED 59,000 to AED 72,000 per year. At the asking price of AED 780,000, this gives an estimated gross yield of:
- At AED 59,000 annual rent: 7.6% gross yield
- At AED 72,000 annual rent: 9.2% gross yield
For a vacant, ready unit, rental income can begin immediately upon purchase. Arjan's yield profile remains among the stronger in Dubai, driven by affordable entry prices and steady rental demand from working professionals and families. The area's proximity to business districts along Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road supports consistent tenant interest.
