Wolfie’s take

Al Furjan is one of Dubai's stronger mid-market yield plays, with gross apartment yields typically in the 6-8% range (studios pushing higher) versus a Dubai average near 6.3%. Its dedicated metro station, freehold status and location on the westward Expo City / Al Maktoum airport growth axis underpin both rental demand and continued price appreciation. Investors should favour well-located apartments near the metro for the best blend of yield and liquidity, while villas and townhouses offer stronger capital-growth upside over a longer hold.
