Liquidity
Business Bay trades at AED 2,100 per sqft, and well-priced units typically go under offer within four to ten weeks. Sea, skyline or park views, vacant possession and a clean service-charge record are what shorten that window.
Exit costs
Budget 2% agency commission, an NOC fee of AED 500–5,000 to the developer, and mortgage settlement if financed. There is no capital gains tax in the UAE.
