Inside special project: “Dubai’s Skyscrapers”
Dubai is one of the fastest-growing cities in the world. It’s hard to believe that just 50 years ago, most of it was desert. We created an infographic to show how the city’s skyline has evolved since the 1980s.
Dubai’s first skyscraper
The first skyscraper in Dubai — the Dubai World Trade Centre (DWTC) — was completed in 1979. It stands 149 meters tall and has 38 floors. A notable fact: it was inaugurated by Queen Elizabeth II herself.
The era of skyscrapers in Dubai began with the DWTC. According to the Council on Tall Buildings and Urban Habitat (CTBUH), as of 2025, there are 265 completed skyscrapers in the city over 150 meters tall — 18 of which exceed 300 meters.
Timeline of Dubai’s tallest buildings
🟠 1979–1999: Dubai World Trade Centre
🟠 1999: The iconic sail-shaped hotel Burj Al Arab
🟠 2000–2008: Emirates Office Tower
🟠 2009: Almas Tower
🟠 2009–present: Burj Khalifa
Several new towers are currently under construction in Dubai, competing for the title of the world’s tallest residential building. Near the Museum of the Future, a branded tower is underway that will feature the highest swimming pool in the world. Meanwhile, on Sheikh Zayed Road, construction is ongoing on what will become the world’s second tallest tower — Burj Azizi, expected to reach around 725 meters.
Yet for more than 15 years, no one has surpassed the Burj Khalifa.

We sold an apartment in 1 day and helped an investor earn 30% ROI on a studio in Dubai’s business district
This post is for those who love hard numbers and specifics.
— Hi, this is Daniil Malafeev. I’ve been wanting to share this story for a while. In June 2023, my client and I chose a studio in the Business Bay district — 42 sq m.
It was a distress deal — we bought the apartment at a discount, and that played a key role later on.
The building in Business Bay was still under construction. The seller we bought from had originally purchased the studio with a 40/60 payment plan — meaning 40% during construction and 60% upon handover. The time came to make the final payment, with two months left before the deadline. But the owner didn’t have the ability to pay the remaining amount, so he decided to sell the studio with a good discount.
That allowed us to secure the apartment for our client at 910,000 AED (around $247,800). In January 2024, we received the keys, furnished the unit (spent 23,000 AED — about $6,260) and put it on short-term rental.
On short-term rentals, we earned around 50,000 AED net ($13,600). Then our investor decided to deploy capital into another project and wanted to sell the studio.
We resold the apartment in one day. We listed it at 11 a.m., and by 4 p.m. the sales contract was already signed. The new price was 1,250,000 AED ($340,000).
▫ Main expenses
Purchase of the apartment — $247 800
Furniture — $6 260
DLD fees — 4% or $9 910
Broker commission — 2% or $4 955
Total expenses — $268 925
▫ Income
Short-term rental income — $13 600
Sale of the studio — $340 000
Total expenses — $353 600
😀 The investor’s profit on this studio was +$84,675
These calculations are approximate — I can walk you through the exact numbers and full transaction details in a one-on-one consultation. Book a session with me — I’ll help you build a strategy, find a rare deal, and guide you through every stage: from selecting the property, furnishing and renting it out to selling and reinvesting.

Why take a mortgage in Dubai when you can get interest-free installments from the developer?
Interest-free installment plans are an excellent option — this financing tool allows many investors to profit significantly from off-plan properties. This raises a valid question: why take a mortgage and pay extra to the bank when you have a zero-interest payment plan available?
However, there are situations where getting a mortgage is actually the better choice:
1. A mortgage can be taken for a ready property in Dubai
Interest-free installment plans for completed properties are extremely rare.
On the other hand, getting a mortgage can be a profitable option—Dubai offers low-interest rates (around 4%), while rental yields are often higher than mortgage payments.
For example, in this apartment, the monthly mortgage payment is $1,150.
2. A mortgage can be used for the final installment payment
If you purchased an off-plan property in Dubai two to three years ago using a developer’s installment plan, you will soon need to make the final payment, which typically accounts for 30–50% of the property’s total price.
Instead of paying the full amount at once, you can spread the cost by financing it through a mortgage. However, it’s best to prepare for the mortgage in advance — watch Firuz video, where they explain the mortgage process in detail:

A mortgage is an underrated investment tool and a great way to own property in Dubai without paying the full amount upfront.

Right now, Abu Dhabi is developing a series of megaprojects that will reshape the emirate: Disneyland, a massive Las Vegas–style Sphere, the Etihad Rail high-speed railway, and a giant AI cluster. In our cards, we’ve highlighted the most important details.
Each major project transforms the city’s economy, attracts tourists, creates new jobs, and increases the emirate’s appeal — all of which drives property prices upward.
We expect Abu Dhabi real estate to show strong growth in the coming years.

Benefits of buying an apartment in the UAE for rental income
Purchasing an apartment to rent out is a solid way to build a reliable source of passive income.
1. High rental yields
Average rental yields in Dubai are 5–8% per year in USD, which is high for a low-risk market. Rental income is tax-free.
2. Steady capital growth
In addition to rental income, your capital grows as property values increase over time.
3. Residency eligibility
With a property purchase from $205,000, you can apply for UAE residency and travel to the Emirates without restrictions.
A strong option right now is Radiant Garden on Al Reem Island, Abu Dhabi. Prices are similar to Dubai’s market 4 years ago, with interest-free payment plans until 2028. See what our experts say about the project on YouTube.

Figure of the Day: $10M+ returns from flipping villas in Dubai
Villa renovation is gaining popularity as premium properties become increasingly scarce. According to Knight Frank, the number of homes priced over $10M dropped nearly 40% over the past year, while $25M+ villas fell from 583 to just 86.
Meanwhile, demand keeps rising — especially for ready-to-move-in and designer-renovated villas.
Renovation is one of the most promising investment strategies. Buy a villa in a prime location, upgrade the interior, maybe the façade and pool area — then resell it with a strong markup.
😀 We help clients identify such opportunities and support them at every stage — from search and acquisition to furnishing and profitable exit.
Interested in flipping villas in Dubai? We have hands-on experience and proven scenarios. Get in touch, and we’ll walk you through the available options.
