Full Residential Building for Sale in Dubai Investment Park — Distress AED 48,000,000 | 80 Units | AED 4.07M Net Annual Income | 8.72% ROI

AED 5,000,000 Below Original Price | 9.43% Below OP | 80 Residential Units + 2 Retail | G+3+Roof | 125,647 Sq Ft BUA | AED 4.07M Net Income | Immediate Income Day One

A rare and structurally significant investment opportunity — a fully operational freehold residential building in Dubai Investment Park being offered at AED 48,000,000 against an original price of AED 53,000,000, representing a saving of AED 5,000,000 (9.43% below the original price). The building comprises 80 residential units (53 one-bedroom, 26 two-bedroom, and 1 studio) plus 2 retail shops, 86 covered parking spaces, and a full amenity programme including a swimming pool, gymnasium, and kids play area across a G+3+Roof structure on a 59,211 sq ft plot with a built-up area of 125,647 sq ft. The building is fully operational with tenants in place generating a current gross annual income of AED 4,800,000 and a net rental income of AED 4,070,000 per annum — delivering a stated ROI of 8.72% on the asking price. Income transfers to the buyer from the day of ownership. Beyond the current income, a meaningful rental uplift case exists as existing leases come up for renewal against a rising DIP market — providing the incoming owner with both an immediate performing asset and a credible near-term yield enhancement opportunity. Full building ownership — as distinct from a portfolio of individually titled units — provides the investor with consolidated management control, no shared body corporate complexity, and the ability to set rental, management, and exit strategy at the building level.

The Distress and Value Case

This building was originally purchased at AED 53,000,000. The seller is now offering at AED 48,000,000 — a saving of AED 5,000,000 against the original price, representing a 9.43% discount. This is not a vacant or underperforming asset being sold under pressure: it is a fully operational, income-generating building with 80 tenanted residential units and 2 retail shops delivering AED 4,070,000 in net annual income. The distress here is the seller’s personal or financial circumstances requiring a discounted exit from a performing asset — the buyer acquires a going-concern real estate investment at a price AED 5,000,000 below the seller’s entry point. The combination of a below-OP acquisition price, a 10.0% gross yield, and meaningful rental uplift potential on lease renewals creates a multi-dimensional investment case that is exceptionally rare for full-building acquisitions in the Dubai market.

Why Full Building Ownership Is Strategically Superior

Acquiring a full building — as opposed to a portfolio of individual titled apartments — delivers a set of structural investment advantages that significantly exceed the sum of individual unit ownership. As the sole owner of the entire building, the investor has complete control over management policy, service charge structure, maintenance standards, tenant selection criteria, rental pricing, lease renewal terms, and exit strategy. There is no body corporate, no co-owner votes, and no competing ownership interests. The building can be managed directly, outsourced to a single property management company, or operated as a branded residential product — all at the sole discretion of the building owner. This consolidated ownership also creates optionality that individual unit investors cannot access: the owner can sell the building as a going-concern investment to another institutional buyer, apply for building refinancing against the income stream, or undertake value-add renovations to enhance the asset and justify rental increases across all 80 units simultaneously.

Rental Uplift Potential

The seller has noted strong rental uplift potential upon lease renewal across the building — an important value-add dimension that supplements the current 8.48% net yield. Dubai Investment Park has experienced consistent upward rental pressure as the community’s residential population has grown, its infrastructure has improved, and demand from workers, families, and small businesses in the DIP ecosystem has increased. Where existing leases were contracted at rates below the current market — a common situation in buildings where tenants have been in residence for multiple years under RERA-regulated increase caps — the incoming owner has a structured pathway to bringing rents progressively to market levels on each renewal cycle. At scale across 80 units, even a modest average rental increase across the unit mix delivers a meaningful uplift to the net income and the effective yield on the acquisition price.

Location — Dubai Investment Park (DIP), Dubai

Dubai Investment Park is one of Dubai’s largest and most strategically positioned mixed-use master-planned communities — a government-developed zone combining industrial, commercial, and residential land use across one of Dubai’s fastest-growing southern corridors. The residential component of DIP has expanded significantly as the community’s resident workforce and family population has grown, creating sustained demand for quality residential rental accommodation at accessible price points. DIP’s location adjacent to Emirates Road (E311), Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road, and the Expo City Dubai corridor positions it as a beneficiary of two of Dubai’s most transformative infrastructure investments: the expanding Al Maktoum International Airport (positioned to become the world’s largest aviation hub) and the Expo City Dubai legacy development. Improved connectivity, growing resident population, and a widening lifestyle infrastructure base — including community retail, dining, recreation, and schooling — have made DIP one of the most active and yield-consistent residential rental markets in Dubai’s suburban investment universe.
