About Collective

Collective Developer Background and Design

The Collective is a G+6 mid-rise residential development by Bold Developer, a company that built its reputation over 15 years through Bold Bespoke Design, a custom furniture and interiors brand founded by CEO Khalil Al-Hashemi. The developer's shift from bespoke furnishing into ground-up residential development informs the project's core proposition: apartments delivered fully furnished and ready to rent from handover.

Architecture and interiors are handled by Design Haus Medy, a multidisciplinary practice with offices across the Middle East, Europe and Africa, working across residential, hospitality and retail design. The building comprises 94 units across one and two-bedroom layouts, all finished in a consistent style intended to reduce furnishing costs for investors and speed up rental uptake after handover.

Collective in Dubai Fully Furnished Apartments

Every unit at The Collective is handed over fully furnished by Bold Bespoke Design, covering living areas, bedrooms, kitchens and bathrooms. This turnkey approach is aimed squarely at buy-to-let investors who want to avoid the capital outlay and lead time typically associated with fitting out a new apartment before it can be listed for rent.

The unit mix is limited to one and two-bedroom apartments, keeping the offering focused rather than spread across a wide range of typologies. Interior renders show open-plan living and dining areas, fitted kitchens and ensuite bathrooms, consistent with the developer's positioning of the building as rental-ready stock rather than a shell product.

Rooftop Amenities and Wellness

Amenities are consolidated on a landscaped rooftop deck organised into distinct zones: a fitness and play area with a football pitch, yoga lawn and table tennis; an infinity pool and sunbed deck; a social zone with cabanas and beach-style seating for a rooftop bar; and a gathering area combining an open-air cinema, BBQ and dining space and a bonfire spot.

Beyond the rooftop, the building includes a residents' lobby with concierge service, a gym and wellness studio, an outdoor fitness zone, a multi-purpose court, landscaped terraces and children's play areas. The concentration of amenities on a single rooftop level is a deliberate design choice for a mid-rise building of this scale, maximising usable outdoor space without requiring a larger footprint.

Investment Case in Dubai South

The Collective sits within Dubai South, the UAE's largest single urban master development at 145 sq km, planned to house over 1 million residents and backed by USD 50 billion in government investment. The district anchors an aviation and logistics ecosystem projected to contribute 32% of Dubai's GDP by 2035, a structural driver of long-term housing demand rather than a speculative one.

Bold Developer quotes an entry price of AED 1,300 per sq ft, positioned 10 to 15% below competing projects in the area, with projected rental yields of 8 to 9.5%. Supply in the district remains constrained, with under 3,000 apartments in the broader pipeline and only 850 currently under construction, supporting the case for price stability. Buyers considering off-plan purchases here should review the standard buying process in Dubai before committing to the 50/50 payment plan.

Location

Location and Connectivity

The Collective is positioned between Expo City Dubai and Al Maktoum International Airport within Dubai South, with a quoted 5-minute drive to Expo City. Bold Developer's brochure also cites drive times of roughly 20 minutes to Dubai Marina and 30 minutes to Downtown Dubai, placing the project within reach of the city's main employment and leisure districts without being inside them.

The wider district benefits from planned direct rail links to Abu Dhabi and DIFC via Etihad Rail, and from a USD 35 billion airport expansion expected to generate around 132,000 jobs. The Expo City and Dubai World Trade Centre corridor is drawing over 40,000 professionals, a workforce base that underpins rental demand for a fully furnished, rental-ready product like this one.
