Distress Deal
Presenting a compelling opportunity for investors seeking value in Dubai’s prime waterfront market: a four-bedroom plus maid’s apartment in Bayview – Tower 1, Emaar Beachfront. This off-plan property offers a substantial 2,463 sq.ft of internal space, positioned on a high floor (38-45) with full panoramic views of the Palm Jumeirah and the Arabian Sea. The current asking price stands at AED 14,600,000, representing a 10.2% discount from the original reference price of AED 16,484,000. This equates to approximately AED 5,928 per square foot, a notable entry point for a branded, sea-facing residence in a flagship Emaar development. The payment structure includes AED 10,962,657 due on transfer and a remaining payment plan of AED 4,745,433, bringing the total buyer cost to AED 15,708,090. With handover scheduled for 2028, this listing presents an immediate opportunity to secure a premium asset at below-market pricing, with the potential for capital appreciation as the project approaches completion.
Bayview – Tower 1 is situated within the Emaar Beachfront master development, a sought-after enclave in Dubai Harbour, adjacent to Dubai Marina. The area is strategically positioned for both connectivity and lifestyle, offering direct access to Sheikh Zayed Road for seamless travel across the city. Residents benefit from proximity to key destinations such as Dubai Marina, Jumeirah Beach Residence, and Bluewaters Island, all reachable within a short drive. Public transport links are expected to improve further as the area matures, with ongoing infrastructure enhancements supporting both private and public mobility. The location’s waterfront setting ensures a tranquil environment, while remaining within easy reach of Dubai’s commercial and leisure hubs.
Residents of Bayview – Tower 1 will enjoy a comprehensive suite of amenities designed to support a modern, coastal lifestyle. The development features 24-hour security, covered parking, and sophisticated access control for peace of mind. The ninth-floor podium is dedicated to leisure, offering a large infinity pool with sea views, a state-of-the-art gymnasium, and landscaped areas with native and adaptable plant species. Families benefit from children’s play areas, shaded pools, and barbecue decks, while retail spaces and boutique stores on the ground level add daily convenience. The private beach is a central highlight, providing direct access to the shoreline and a serene setting for relaxation. Additional features include bicycle storage, electric vehicle parking, and shaded seating areas, all curated to enhance resident comfort and well-being.
Emaar Beachfront has established itself as one of Dubai’s most resilient and in-demand waterfront communities, with branded residences typically commanding a premium. The Bayview project, developed by Emaar and branded by Address Hotels + Resorts, is positioned to attract both end-users and investors seeking long-term value. Comparable four-bedroom apartments in similar developments have demonstrated strong rental demand, particularly among expatriate families and professionals valuing proximity to the Marina and direct beach access. Liquidity in the area is supported by Emaar’s reputation and the ongoing transformation of Dubai Harbour into a lifestyle destination. While the off-plan nature introduces typical risks—such as construction timelines and future market shifts—the current discount provides a buffer against short-term volatility. The property’s high-floor position and unobstructed sea views further enhance its appeal, supporting both rentability and future resale prospects.
For investors, this four-bedroom plus maid’s apartment in Bayview – Tower 1 represents a balanced proposition: immediate entry at a discounted rate in a flagship waterfront project, with the backing of a leading developer. The combination of size, views, and branded amenities positions the property well within Dubai’s evolving residential landscape. While off-plan investments require careful consideration of delivery timelines and market cycles, the fundamentals here—location, developer credibility, and below-reference pricing—offer a compelling case for capital preservation and potential upside. As Emaar Beachfront continues to mature, assets of this calibre are likely to see sustained demand from both tenants and future buyers. This listing is well-suited to investors seeking a blend of lifestyle appeal and long-term value in one of Dubai’s most promising coastal communities.
Illustrative model
Set your own assumptions and see how DISTRESS DEAL: 4-BR + Maid's IN BAYVIEW - TOWER 1 behaves as a cash purchase, the same purchase mortgaged, or a capital-only resale.
The date this listing was added to our records. The asking price below is the one published then, and was still 27 days old when we last checked this listing on 3 August 2026. It is not re-checked against the market automatically, so confirm it with us before relying on it.
As stated on this listing: the asking price measured against the original purchase price recorded for this unit. It is not a discount to current market value and not a valuation — a unit priced below what it originally sold for may still be at or above what comparable units achieve today. Check the registered comparables before treating the gap as equity. It is not used in any calculation below.
The asking price divided by the stated size. Compare it against registered sales in the same building before deciding whether the asking price is competitive.
Cash back is below cash out on these assumptions: over the whole hold this purchase returns less than it costs. Read the sensitivity table before drawing a conclusion.
This is the ROI and IRR denominator: the price plus every cost of getting the keys, not the price alone.
No rental evidence is held for this unit. The rent figure is yours to set — we have not assumed one. Until you enter a gross annual rent, the yield, ROI/ROE and IRR figures reflect capital movement and costs only.

Exit at year 5: illustrative sale price AED 14,600,000 less selling costs AED 306,600 = AED 14,293,400 net. The final column is the schedule the IRR is solved from. Rent is held flat in nominal terms — the rent-growth field is at 0% — as is the service charge, so no inflation is assumed on either side.
| Exit growth | Exit price | Total profit | ROI | IRR |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| −5% p.a. | AED 11.3M | −AED 4.66M | — | — |
| −3% p.a. | AED 12.5M | −AED 3.45M | — | — |

| 3% p.a. | AED 16.9M | AED 848k | — | — |
| 5% p.a. | AED 18.6M | AED 2.52M | — | — |
Each row re-runs the whole model with only the exit growth rate changed, over the same 5-year hold. The 0% and negative rows are not a worst case — they are simply what the same purchase returns if prices do not rise. Dubai prices have fallen in the past and can fall again. The return columns are shown as “—” until a gross annual rent is set; the total profit column reflects capital movement, purchase and sale costs and the service charge only.
