Off-Plan
Apartments for sale in Dubai under AED 1M
Under AED 1M is Dubai's most affordable entry point: studios and one-bedroom apartments in the districts where the city's workforce actually rents, led by Jumeirah Village Circle, Dubai South, Production City and the corridors along the E311. Prices here are low relative to achievable rents, which is why this bracket draws buyers focused on rental income.

The trade-offs deserve honesty. This price point does not buy prime land, so the developer's delivery record and the district's infrastructure trajectory carry all the weight: an identical floor plan delivers a completely different outcome in a district that gains a metro link versus one that stays a construction site. Payment plans stretch a modest down payment across the construction years, which keeps entry capital low but means you are underwriting the developer for that period.
Note for residency planners: this ticket size sits below the AED 2M Golden Visa threshold on its own. Two properties can be combined to qualify, or the two-bedroom pages one bracket up get you there in a single purchase.
Frequently asked questions
What does under AED 1M actually buy in Dubai?+
Studios and one-bedroom apartments in emerging and mid-market districts, occasionally a compact two-bed at launch pricing in the outer corridors. The live entry price above shows where the floor currently sits across the projects on this page.
Do you publish yields for this price point?+
No. We don't have sourced rental and transaction data to publish a figure. Service charges here typically run AED 10 to 20 per square foot annually, and smaller units keep more of their rent after that deduction because the absolute charge is lower; model your own numbers with our rental yield calculator.
Is sub-AED 1M stock harder to resell?+
It is the most liquid segment by transaction count, but supply is also deepest, so the exit depends on buying below the district's replacement cost and in a project that actually delivered well. We tell you which of these projects meet that bar before you commit.
Does this price qualify for a UAE residence visa?+
Not for the 10-year Golden Visa, which requires AED 2M in property. Property worth AED 750,000 or more can support a renewable 2-year investor residence visa, which most projects on this page clear. Combining two purchases to reach AED 2M for the Golden Visa is also common; ask us to structure it.
Direct access, developer-paid commission
We place buyers directly into every project on this page, and our commission is paid by the developer, not by you. Ask us for the payment schedule, the real resale picture and whether a launch is worth your money before you commit.
