GOLF-COURSE APARTMENTS IN EMAAR'S DUBAI SOUTH COMMUNITY
Golf Views is an apartment development by Emaar at Emaar South, the developer's master community in Dubai South, close to Al Maktoum International Airport and Expo City and built around an 18-hole championship golf course.
Golf Views sits in Emaar South, with outlooks across the golf course. According to the Dubai Land Department register, the project comprises three residential buildings (ground, podium and 7, 10 and 11 floors) in two blocks, plus 14 two-storey townhouses.
According to the Dubai Land Department register, construction started in July 2017, and the project reached 100% at DLD inspection on 20 April 2020. Golf Views therefore trades on the secondary market rather than off-plan.
THE INVESTMENT CASE
LOCATION: EMAAR SOUTH, BESIDE AL MAKTOUM INTERNATIONAL AIRPORT
Emaar South is an Emaar master community in Dubai South, set around an 18-hole championship golf course and close to Al Maktoum International Airport and Expo City. The position favours proximity to the southern airport and Expo corridor over central-Dubai commute times.
APPLICABLE STRATEGIES
- Buy-and-hold for rental — a completed golf-course apartment development in an airport-adjacent community.
- Owner-occupation — a move-in-ready apartment in an established, amenity-led community.
- Secondary-market entry — as a delivered development, units can be inspected and any existing tenancy assessed before purchase, unlike an off-plan launch.
RISKS & WATCHPOINTS
- Secondary-market pricing — pricing is set by individual resellers and varies by floor, outlook and condition.
- Community pipeline — Emaar South has a substantial ongoing delivery pipeline of further phases; new completions nearby can affect resale and rental pricing.
- Location trade-off — Emaar South sits at the southern edge of the city; commute times to central districts should be weighed against the value on offer and against the longer-term Al Maktoum airport expansion thesis.
