offplan with backing and completion dates would be your best bet. you also need to know good developers from bad. i haven't seen many new builds that i'd want to live in as the quality is terrible

i'd also give it a year. prices are falling and will continue to do so. a friend bought for 2.4m last year, its worth 1.6 now [aed]. unfortunately the establish developments where residents want to live [so still good demand and residuals] would not be ideal as a holiday home. the areas that would are massively oversaturated.

I'm there now, don't do it, it's grim. Can't wait to rotate home..

When it rains ALL villas leak everywhere, does not matter if its top of Range it will leak!

Why do you want a property there rather than staying in a hotel when you visit?

The market is very volatile and not somewhere I would want to park a lot of cash.

Mine doesn't and we've had some biblical rain in the last 18 months.

Im hearing JBR and Dubai Marina are a nice mix of lifestyle, restaurants, shops and activities, but also fairly lively so depends on your living choice...

My sister lived close to JBR and Dubai marina in a few different apartments for a few years, she loved it and I loved visiting.
She has now moved further out into a villa on a gated community, she does not like it (I haven’t visited it yet due to covid)
