Al Furjan is a Nakheel-developed mid-market residential community in Dubai with a Route 2020 metro station. Apartments from AED 430K deliver gross yields of 8–8.5%. Strong tenant demand from nearby industrial and commercial areas. Metro access is the key differentiator over comparable communities.
What Al Furjan Is
Al Furjan is a master-planned community developed by Nakheel, located in the Jebel Ali corridor approximately 25 minutes from Downtown Dubai. The community spans approximately 560 hectares of apartments, townhouses, and villa clusters. The Route 2020 metro extension brought an Al Furjan station in 2020, connecting residents directly to the Dubai Metro Red Line.
The community is fully developed with a retail pavilion, parks, community pools, and schools nearby. Discovery Gardens is adjacent — together they form one of Dubai's largest mid-market residential corridors.
Price and Yield Data — 2026
| Property Type | Avg Sale Price | Annual Rent | Gross Yield |
|---|---|---|---|
| Studio | AED 430,000 | AED 36,000 | 8.4% |
| 1BR Apartment | AED 600,000 | AED 50,000 | 8.3% |
| 2BR Apartment | AED 900,000 | AED 72,000 | 8.0% |
| 3BR Villa | AED 2,800,000 | AED 140,000 | 5.0% |
Metro Access
Al Furjan's Route 2020 metro station connects to the Red Line at Jebel Ali, providing access to Union, Burjuman, and the full metro network. For tenants commuting to Dubai Media City, DIFC, or Union Station, this is a material accessibility advantage over communities at similar price points without metro access.
DRE Verdict
Al Furjan is a solid yield play for investors targeting the AED 430K–900K entry range. Metro access supports stable tenant demand. The community lacks the lifestyle infrastructure of JVC but the yield premium compensates. Suitable for buy-to-let investors prioritising cash flow over capital growth.
