Why the Price Qualifies as Below OP
The agent states the original purchase price was AED 3,400,000. The current asking price of AED 3,050,000 represents a reduction of AED 350,000 (10.3%) from that original price. The seller is exiting below cost on a brand new unit in a just-completed building, which is uncommon in Downtown Dubai's premium market.
At AED 1,993 per sq.ft, the unit sits below the Property Finder average for Downtown Dubai apartments (approximately AED 3,100 per sq.ft), reflecting a significant discount for a brand new building in the district. The study room provides functional flexibility that could allow a buyer to use the layout as a 3 bedroom, further enhancing the value proposition. The original price should be verified against the seller's SPA.
Study to Third Bedroom Conversion
The apartment includes a dedicated study room which the agent states can be converted to a third bedroom. This effectively provides a 3 bedroom equivalent layout at a 2 bedroom price point of AED 3,050,000. In Downtown Dubai, where 3 bedroom apartments typically command AED 4 million and above, this conversion option adds considerable value. The feasibility of the conversion, including any structural, ventilation, or regulatory requirements, should be confirmed by the buyer.
