About DAMAC Paramount Tower A and the Paramount Brand
DAMAC Towers by Paramount is a landmark mixed-use development at Business Bay comprising four interconnected 55-storey towers — each standing 270 metres above Dubai — joined at their base by an 8-storey multi-level podium housing the development's extensive retail, dining, and entertainment facilities. Three towers (A, B, and D) are residential and one (Tower C) is the world's first Paramount Hotel, making this the only address in Dubai where residents live in a building physically connected to a branded 5-star hospitality product. Tower A contains 400 residential units across studios, 1, 2, and 3-bedroom configurations. The 3-bedroom apartments in Tower A span up to 1,746 sq ft — the largest standard residential unit type available — with floor-to-ceiling double-glazed windows, glass-railing balconies with sliding door access, and fully equipped semi-open kitchens with stone countertops and built-in appliances.
Every unit in DAMAC Paramount Tower A was delivered fully furnished to the Paramount Hollywood Studios standard — a "California cool" design language that incorporates premium furniture, equipped kitchens (cooking range, microwave, dishwasher, refrigerator, washing machine), and quality bathroom fittings. This turnkey specification means there is no additional investment required to make the apartment rentable or habitable: it is immediately income-generating or immediately liveable from the day of DLD transfer. The development was completed in October 2018 and is fully established — a stabilised, operational community with active tenants, functioning amenities, and a strong transactional history.

Why Fully Furnished Matters at This Price
The "fully furnished" designation in a Paramount-branded building is not a generic label — it means the unit has been fitted out to the specific Paramount Hotels & Resorts interior specification at the time of the original purchase, and that investment is included in the AED 2,650,000 asking price. The furniture, kitchen appliances, bathroom fittings, built-in wardrobes, and branded furnishings are all in place. For the buyer, this eliminates two cost and time burdens that apply to unfurnished purchases: (1) no furniture fit-out budget required on top of the purchase price — the unit is immediately rentable to premium corporate tenants who specifically seek fully furnished Business Bay apartments; and (2) no time delay between DLD transfer and the first rental income — the property can be listed on the same day. At a Business Bay 3BR furnished annual rental range of AED 180,000–240,000, the gross yield on the AED 2,650,000 asking price is 6.8–9.1% — materially above Business Bay's average apartment yield of 5–6%.
The 30% Discount — What It Means
The seller's total documented cost was AED 3,775,000 — original DAMAC developer price (~AED 3,629,808) plus the 4% DLD fee (~AED 145,192) paid at the time of purchase. The distress asking price is AED 2,650,000. The AED 1,125,000 gap is the full amount the seller is willing to absorb to exit quickly. In practical terms:
- AED 1,518/sqft vs seller's original cost of AED 2,079/sqft
- The seller forfeits AED 1,125,000 — not the buyer
- The buyer acquires a furnished, ready, income-generating 3BR in Business Bay at a price AED 1,125,000 below the confirmed cost of the same asset when it was originally purchased
- No off-plan risk, no construction timeline, no payment plan complexity — this is a straightforward ready property at a distress price

Why This 3BR at AED 2,650,000 Is the Best Deal in Tower A
- AED 1,125,000 (29.8%) below the seller's documented cost: The seller paid AED 3,775,000 (OP + DLD) and is selling at AED 2,650,000. The entire gap is absorbed by the seller — the buyer captures it as equity at DLD registration on a ready, titled property.
- AED 1,518/sqft for a furnished 3BR in Business Bay: Business Bay 3BR apartments trade at materially higher prices per sqft in the current market. At AED 1,518/sqft vs the seller's original AED 2,079/sqft, this listing is priced below any comparable unit currently available in Tower A at market rates.
- Fully furnished — no additional capex: The entire furniture, kitchen, and fit-out is in place. The buyer's AED 2,650,000 is the total cost to acquire an immediately rentable 3BR. No additional investment required before the first rental cheque.
- Paramount-branded dine-in cinema — Business Bay's most distinctive amenity: No other residential building in Business Bay offers an on-site Paramount-branded dine-in cinema. This single amenity creates a differentiated lifestyle offer that supports a rental premium and faster occupancy versus comparable Business Bay apartments without it.
- Immediate yield of 6.8–9.1%: At AED 2,650,000 and Business Bay 3BR furnished rents of AED 180,000–240,000/yr, this property generates 6.8–9.1% gross from day one — above Business Bay's community average of 5–6%. DAMAC Paramount already has a resident community of corporate professionals paying premium rents for the branded furnished standard.
- Ready property, cash or mortgage: No off-plan risk, no construction, no developer milestones. DLD transfer closes the transaction. Mortgage-eligible if required — the property is an established, titled freehold asset in a completed, fully operational building.
