Insight: Despite market-wide growth, off-plan inventory in Business Bay remains competitively priced, with strong room for value appreciation between 2025 and 2027.
Among the standout investment launches in Business Bay is Royal Regency Suites, a hotel-style residence offering serviced living, short-term rental potential, and smart post-handover payment plans.
Why It Stands Out:
Set just off the Dubai Canal, Royal Regency caters to business travelers, remote workers, and high-net-worth renters seeking flexibility and branded convenience. It combines high rental appeal with low operational overhead, making it ideal for international investors or passive landlords.
Note: Binghatti Aquarise's pricing under AED 1,800/sq.ft. makes it one of the most value-packed canal-front projects available today

Business Bay continues to offer:
While Dubai’s outer zones rise on the back of new masterplans, Business Bay retains its core-city appeal, especially for investors prioritizing location, liquidity, and lifestyle branding.
