✅ The Success Story of Emaar: Completed Communities That Prove Why It’s Dubai’s Smartest Investment

As someone who has worked side by side with investors, developers, and decision-makers for the past 7+ years, I’ve come to one very clear conclusion:
If you're looking for a real estate investment in Dubai that is secure, scalable, and backed by consistent results—Emaar is where smart money goes.

In this article, I’ll take you through Emaar’s most successful completed communities, show you proof of their performance, and explain why my clients—whether end users or bulk investors—trust me to help them secure the right units at the right time.


🏗️ A Proven Track Record: Why Emaar?

Before we talk numbers, let’s start with one key fact:

From Burj Khalifa to entire master-planned cities like Dubai Hills Estate, Emaar’s delivery is not just on time—it’s on target with investor expectations.

Established: 1997
Delivered Projects: 100,000+
Average ROI on key projects: 6%–9%
Average Capital Appreciation (in top 5 communities): 100%–150% over 5–8 years
Rental Yields (completed projects): Up to 8% annually
Payment Plan Flexibility: 80/20 and post-handover options

🏡 Completed Emaar Communities That Delivered Value

Here are 6 of Emaar’s most successful communities—I’ve personally helped dozens of clients buy in these, many of whom have reinvested based on results:

1. Downtown Dubai

  • Launch Year: 2004

  • Key Asset: Burj Khalifa, Dubai Mall

  • Starting Price (2004): AED 1,100/sq.ft

  • Current Avg Price (2024): AED 3,200–3,500/sq.ft

  • Capital Appreciation: 180%+

  • Rental Yield: 6%–7%
    ✅ My Experience: Many of my early clients saw 2.5x returns here. Still in demand, especially for branded residences like Address.

2. Dubai Hills Estate

  • Avg. Starting Price (2015): AED 950–1,100/sq.ft

  • Capital Growth: 120%+

  • Annual ROI: 6.5%
    ✅ My Take: A family-friendly, green-centric community with a high resale demand. Multiple resale and rental deals closed under my portfolio.

3. Emaar South

  • Launched: 2016

  • Delivered: 2020 onwards

  • Location: Near Expo 2020 site & Al Maktoum Airport

  • Capital Appreciation (Golf Links, Urbana): 90%+

  • First Handover: 2022

  • Starting Prices (2019): AED 1.4M

  • Current Prices: AED 2.8M–3.4M
