Azizi Berton Al Furjan Dubai

Azizi Berton is a finished, eight-storey building of 247 homes by Azizi Developments in Al Furjan: 190 studios, 41 one and two-bedroom apartments and 16 penthouses. Azizi handed it over on 14 August 2023 and reported it sold out since Q3 2022, so every purchase now is a resale. Studios of 374 to 496 sq ft ask from AED 550,000 (about Rs 1.42 crore) on Property Finder.

Berton is, in practice, a studio block. Three homes in four are studios, which makes it a rental investment close to a Red Line station and Jebel Ali Free Zone, and a poor fit for families. The numbers that matter are the studio ask against the launch price, the service charge and how many identical units you are competing with.

At a glance

Price and unit pricing

The studio asks run from AED 550,000 to 650,000, and the per-foot figure swings widely because listings do not pair each price with its size; the range above is the honest bracket. Two-bedroom and penthouse prices did not appear in the sources checked.

Against the launch, the smallest studio has gone from about AED 335,000 to asks of AED 550,000, roughly 64% more, though the two may not be the same unit size. The YallaValue estimate of about AED 690,000 on a 642 sq ft one-bedroom sits well below the AED 800,000 asks, a sign that one-bedroom sellers are pricing optimistically. The DLD's recorded transactions settle this; ask your agent for the last six months of Berton sales before you offer.

Payment plan and total cost

No developer plan is left; Azizi sold out in 2022. You pay the seller in full at transfer or take a UAE mortgage, where non-residents are usually lent 50% to 60% of the bank's valuation. Worked on a AED 550,000 studio bought for cash:

About 7% on top of the price is the real cost of a Dubai resale, and it is why a quick flip rarely pays. Before transfer, the seller must produce a no-objection certificate from Azizi confirming the service charge is paid up.

The building's service charge is not in the sources checked. Al Furjan apartment buildings generally run AED 12 to 15 per sq ft a year, about AED 4,500 to 7,400 on a 374 to 496 sq ft studio. Ask for the DLD-approved budget, not the district figure.

Location and connectivity

Al Furjan sits off Sheikh Zayed Road in Jebel Ali First, next to Discovery Gardens, and grew up as a villa and townhouse community before Azizi, Danube and others filled its edges with mid-rise blocks. The Red Line reached it in 2021 when Al Furjan station opened on the Route 2020 extension, and that is the single biggest reason studios here let.

The tenants come from nearby work: Jebel Ali Free Zone is about ten minutes, Ibn Battuta Mall five to ten. Dubai Marina and JBR are about fifteen minutes, Expo City and Al Maktoum International Airport fifteen to twenty. Walking time to the station varies by building, so check it from Berton's door rather than trusting a "metro community" label.

Other Azizi buildings in the district we cover include Azizi Farishta, another finished block, and Azizi Ameer, still under construction. See Al Furjan for the district, Azizi Dubai projects for the developer's list, and all Dubai projects or the projects page for everything else.

Amenities and specifications

The building offers a rooftop swimming pool, a health club and gym, a sauna, a children's playground and an outdoor café. It was designed with the architects 360 Degrees. That is a full set for eight storeys; the rooftop pool is the one feature that separates it from the plainer blocks around it.

On a three-year-old building, the unit's condition matters more than the brochure. Check the kitchen, air-conditioning and bathrooms on a viewing, ask whether the studio has been let furnished, and confirm the parking bay on the title deed, because the sources do not say whether every studio has one.

The 16 penthouses are the building's rarest stock, but no source checked prints their sizes, bedroom counts or asking prices, and none was listed for sale in the results we saw. If one comes up, price it against the one-bedroom rate of roughly AED 1,000 to 1,360 per sq ft and ask whether the roof terrace is counted in the area the service charge is billed on, since that changes the yearly bill.

About the developer

Azizi Developments has built in Dubai since 2007 and says it has delivered more than 45,000 homes, with Al Furjan among its first communities. Oliva's reading of DLD data puts 89.1% of contracted units on or before the DLD-registered date, but notes that selected Al Furjan and Riviera phases arrived 12 to 24 months late in 2019-2022.

Berton took about six years from its 2017 launch to its August 2023 handover; the original target date is not printed in the sources checked. For a resale buyer that history is closed. What still depends on Azizi is building management and the service-charge budget, so read the last two years' statements.

For Indian buyers

Ownership. Al Furjan is freehold, so you own the studio outright with a DLD title deed in your name. Dubai has no annual property tax and no sales tax on a residential resale; the recurring cost is the service charge.

Remittance. AED 550,000 is about USD 150,000, well inside one person's USD 250,000 Liberalised Remittance Scheme allowance for a financial year, even with the AED 38,000 of fees. That makes Berton a one-remittance, one-owner purchase. TCS applies above the threshold, and your bank will want the sale contract.

Golden Visa. None. The studio is AED 1.45 million short of the AED 2 million threshold, and nothing in the building comes close.

Rent and tax. Oliva's 2026 Al Furjan guide puts apartment yields at roughly 6.5% to 8% gross, with studios at the top of the band. Bought at AED 550,000, a studio letting at the band's top would earn about AED 44,000 a year before a service charge of up to AED 7,400. Rent from Dubai is taxable in India for a resident at slab rates, with the 30% standard deduction, and the property must go in Schedule FA. The UAE levies nothing, so the Indian bill is the whole bill.

Pros

• Finished and title-deeded — no construction risk, rent from the first month
• The entry studio at about AED 550,000 fits inside one person's USD 250,000 LRS allowance
• Studios are the unit that earns the top of Al Furjan's 6.5% to 8% gross yield band
• Metro in the district and JAFZA ten minutes away supply the tenants
• Early buyers show what a launch buyer made: roughly AED 335,000 to AED 550,000 on the smallest studio

Cons

• 190 of 247 homes are studios, so you compete with dozens of identical units inside the building
• Many near-identical Azizi studio blocks nearby compete for the same tenants and buyers
• No service charge published for the building; ask for the DLD-approved statement
• No Golden Visa route — the entry studio is AED 1.45 million short of AED 2 million
• Asking prices, not sold prices: the DLD transaction record is what to negotiate from

Who this is for

• First-time Dubai investors who want one ready studio inside a single LRS year
• Buyers after rental income from JAFZA and Ibn Battuta workers
• Anyone who wants to avoid off-plan risk entirely
• Investors who will hold for rent rather than trade on capital growth

Who should look elsewhere

• Families — only 41 homes are one or two-bedrooms
• Golden Visa buyers
• Anyone expecting another 64% rise; that was a 2017-to-2026 gain, not a forecast
• Buyers who will not check the unit's condition and the service-charge history

Our verdict

Berton is a studio building that has already done its growing. A launch buyer who paid about AED 335,000 is now looking at asks from AED 550,000, and the 2023 handover means the construction and delay risk is gone. What is left is a rental asset: 190 near-identical studios in an eight-storey block, ten minutes from JAFZA and close to a Red Line station. That suits an investor who wants income from a single, affordable, finished unit, and it suits almost nobody else. The weak point is supply, both inside the building and across the Azizi blocks around it, so a buyer's edge comes from price discipline, not from the building.

Worth buying as a first Dubai rental if you can get a studio near the bottom of the AED 550,000 to 650,000 range and the service-charge statement is clean. Do not pay the top of the range for a similar-sized unit, since identical studios come up often. Not for families or visa buyers.

FAQs

What does a studio in Azizi Berton cost?

Property Finder listings put studios of 374 to 496 sq ft at AED 550,000 to 600,000, with others of 388 to 426 sq ft at AED 620,000 to 650,000. AED 550,000 is about Rs 1.42 crore. These are asking prices; check recent DLD sales before you offer.

What did it cost at launch?

Launch-era pages printed a start of about AED 335,000, roughly AED 850 per sq ft, in 2017. Azizi reported the building sold out by Q3 2022.

Is Azizi Berton ready?

Yes. Azizi handed over all 247 homes on 14 August 2023. You buy from an owner, and the title deed transfers at a DLD trustee office.

How many homes are in the building?

247 on Azizi's handover announcement: 190 studios, 41 one and two-bedrooms and 16 penthouses, over eight storeys. One portal prints 245; the developer's figure is the one used here.

What rental yield can I expect?

Oliva's 2026 Al Furjan guide puts apartment yields at roughly 6.5% to 8% gross, with studios at the top. Subtract a service charge of about AED 12 to 15 per sq ft and a month's void each year before comparing it with anything in India.

What is the service charge?

The building's rate is not in the sources checked. Al Furjan apartment buildings generally run AED 12 to 15 per sq ft a year, about AED 4,500 to 7,400 on a studio. Ask the seller for the DLD-approved budget and the last two years of statements, and get Azizi's no-objection certificate showing nothing is owed before transfer.

Does it qualify for a Golden Visa?

No. A studio at AED 550,000 is AED 1.45 million short of the AED 2 million threshold, and even the one-bedrooms are far below it.

Can an Indian citizen buy it?

Yes. Al Furjan is freehold for all nationalities. AED 550,000 is about USD 150,000, inside one person's USD 250,000 LRS allowance with room for the fees.
