Useful information about Dubai Downtown

A freehold community is one that’s been zoned as such. This means that all properties within a freehold community are 100% owned by the owner. This applies regardless of whether the owner is a UAE national or a foreigner.

There are over 200 communities in Dubai. Not all of these are considered “freehold” meaning that foreign ownership is not always possible.

Whilst there is no such thing as “Dubai’s best community” some communities are exceptionally popular and better than others. Some of  these include Dubai Marina, Palm Jumeirah, and Downtown Dubai.

Dubai’s communities with the cheapest priced properties include International City and Discovery Gardens. Both offer properties at considerable discount to some of Dubai’s other more prominent areas.

Off plan properties are available in all new and emerging communities. Communities that are already established tend to have far less such properties simply due to the fact that most of the land has already been developed.

Whilst most of Dubai’s areas are perfectly suitable for families some are better than others. The best communities have a big emphasis on green open spaces and amenities-packed parks for the whole family to enjoy. These communities also come with kid-friendly retail centers along with great educational facilities. Some of the communities that fall into this category include Dubai Hills, Arabian Ranches, and Emirates Living.

There are several communities that offer residents beach access. These include Jumeirah Beach Residence, Dubai Marina, Emaar Beachfront, and of course the Palm Jumeirah.
