Buying apartments in Dubai
Dubai is one of Dubai's most active apartment markets, with a mix of high-rise towers, mid-rise residences and serviced inventory. Buyers come here for proximity to business districts, leisure destinations and the metro network — and for the rental-yield profile that compact, well-located apartments offer.
Apartment living in Dubai typically includes shared pools, gyms, 24-hour security, covered parking and concierge services in the better-managed buildings. Floor-plan options range from studios suited to investors and single professionals, through 1–2 bed configurations that dominate the rental market, up to 3+ bed sky-homes and penthouses.
2-bedroom apartments are the most-searched configuration in Dubai for both end-users and investors. They balance space and ticket size, and the sub-market is deep enough that buyers have real choice between layouts, finishes and view orientations.
Prices on the platform currently range from AED 95k to AED 235k. with an average of 139 AED/sqft. Most active sub-areas right now: Gardenia Livings, Harbour Gate Tower 1, Palace Residences. Numbers update as listings change — verified by RERA permit at ingest.

Frequently asked questions
What documents do I need to rent in Dubai?
To sign a tenancy contract you'll typically need a copy of your passport, UAE residence visa (or entry stamp for non-residents), Emirates ID (for residents), and a salary certificate or bank statement. Most landlords also require post-dated cheques to cover the year's rent in 1–4 instalments.
How are rent payments structured in Dubai?
The standard model is annual rent paid via post-dated cheques, usually split into 1, 2, 4, or 12 cheques. Fewer cheques = lower asking price; monthly payments are possible but typically come at a premium. The first cheque clears on move-in, the rest on the dates printed on each cheque.
What fees should I budget when renting?
Standard one-time fees: 5% real estate agent commission (of annual rent), AED 110 Ejari registration fee, refundable security deposit (5% for unfurnished, 10% for furnished), and DEWA setup (AED 1,000 refundable for apartments). Add chiller deposits if water cooling is metered separately.
What is Ejari and is it required?
Ejari is the official rental contract registration system run by RERA. Every Dubai tenancy contract must be registered with Ejari to be legally binding — it's also required to set up DEWA, get a parking permit, sponsor family residence visas, and enrol children in DHA-affiliated schools.
Can the landlord increase my rent each year?
Rent increases are capped by the RERA Rental Index. If your current rent is more than 10% below market value, the landlord can raise rent up to 5–20% on renewal depending on how far below market you are. The landlord must give 90 days' written notice before contract expiry.
What's the difference between furnished and unfurnished?
Unfurnished is empty (no appliances or furniture). Furnished includes white goods (fridge, oven, washing machine) plus living and bedroom furniture — quality varies, always inspect on viewing. Semi-furnished typically means white goods only. Furnished rents are usually 10–25% higher than unfurnished.
Are utilities included?
Almost never. Tenants pay DEWA (electricity + water), internet (Etisalat or du), and chiller (water cooling) separately. Some buildings have built-in chiller, others bill per usage. Service charges (building maintenance) are paid by the landlord, not the tenant.
Can I break my tenancy contract early?
Yes, but most contracts include a 'two-month notice + two-month penalty' clause for early termination. Negotiate this clause before signing. If you're transferred abroad or cancelling your visa, some landlords will release you penalty-free with proof.
Do I need a UAE resident visa to rent?
No — short-term rentals (under 12 months) and some long-term contracts are open to non-residents with a tourist visa. However, Ejari registration and DEWA setup are easier with a resident visa, and most landlords prefer residents for stability.
What is RERA and why does it matter?
RERA (Real Estate Regulatory Agency) is the Dubai government body that licenses brokerages, regulates rents, and enforces tenancy law via the Rental Disputes Centre. Every legitimate listing in Dubai must carry a RERA permit number. Disruptive Real Estate operates under ORN 1167819.
