Rosalia Residences Al Furjan Dubai

Rosalia Residences is Deyaar's third building in Al Furjan: nine residential floors above a ground-floor retail boulevard, holding 117 apartments, delivered in September 2025. One-bedroom homes start at about AED 1,019,400 (about Rs 2.62 crore) from 774 sq ft — roughly AED 1,317 per sq ft, a shade under the community average.

What separates this from most of what sells in Al Furjan is who built it. Deyaar is listed on the Dubai Financial Market and is a subsidiary of Dubai Islamic Bank, and it has now finished three buildings in this community. Because Rosalia has been occupied for a year, you can check a real service-charge statement and real rents instead of a projection. See the rest of the Dubai section or our wider projects list.

At a glance

Price and unit pricing

The source listing carries this project without a price. The figure below is the developer's starting price as the portals list it, set against the community.

At about AED 1,317 per sq ft the entry unit is priced just under the community average, which is fair rather than cheap — and it is fair for apartments that are larger than the local norm. A 774 sq ft one-bed is roomy where 650 to 700 sq ft is common, and the range runs to 1,178 sq ft for the same label. That is why you should compare this building on rate per sq ft rather than on the headline price: against a cheaper building with smaller units, Rosalia may well be the better value per square foot even though the cheque is bigger.

Two- and three-bedroom prices are not published by the sources we checked, and the three-bed at 1,743 sq ft is the unit most likely to interest anyone thinking about the AED 2 M Golden Visa threshold. Get that price in writing rather than extrapolating from the one-bed's rate.

Payment and total cost

The plan as launched ran 10% on booking, 36% across construction, 14% at handover and 40% after handover. Portals also quote a version spreading that last 40% over 40 months, and a 10% / 50% / 40% variant. The building is finished, so whether any of these is still on offer depends on Deyaar holding unsold stock — and it is worth asking, because a post-handover instalment plan on a completed, rentable apartment means your tenant helps pay the balance.

Buying from an owner instead is an ordinary resale. Worked on an AED 1,019,400 one-bed:

Add 0.25% of the loan as mortgage registration if you finance. The service-charge line is the district range and it is the number to interrogate hardest on this particular building — see below.

Location and connectivity

Al Furjan sits between Sheikh Zayed Road and Sheikh Mohammed bin Zayed Road, with Discovery Gardens on one side and Jebel Ali on the other. Al Furjan metro station opened in 2021 on the Route 2020 extension of the Red Line and serves the community; homes within a ten-minute walk of it have gained about 22% in capital value over three years and let faster than the rest of the district.

Ibn Battuta Mall is five to ten minutes away, Jebel Ali Free Zone about ten and the employer behind much of the local tenant demand, Dubai Marina and JBR about fifteen, Expo City and Al Maktoum International Airport fifteen to twenty. The building's own ground-floor retail adds something the neighbours do not have: a cafe or a shop downstairs rather than a drive. For a comparison in the same community we also cover Serene Gardens 2.

Amenities and specifications

The amenity list is long for a building of this size: swimming pool, splash pad, jacuzzi, gym, multipurpose hall, games room, clubhouse cinema, meditation area, barbecue area, planted gardens, 24-hour security and maintenance, and the retail boulevard at ground level.

That list is a genuine selling point for a tenant and a genuine cost for an owner. Every one of those items is plant or space that 117 households pay to run, clean, insure and eventually replace. It is the reason to ask for the approved service-charge budget rather than assuming the district's AED 12 to 15 per sq ft applies — small buildings with big amenity decks tend to land at the top of that range or above it.

About the developer

Deyaar Development is one of Dubai's established names: listed on the Dubai Financial Market and a subsidiary of Dubai Islamic Bank. That backing is not a detail. When a developer takes money before a building exists, the question that decides everything is whether the company can finish it in a bad year, and a bank-owned, exchange-listed developer answers that question differently from a private launch.

Deyaar entered 2026 with a pipeline reported at about AED 7 billion after a 26% rise in profit. Al Furjan is a community it has committed to — Rosalia is its third project there, from a local portfolio worth around AED 300 million, and the first of them, Amalia Residences launched in 2022, sold out completely. Rosalia itself was delivered in September 2025, on the schedule its buyers were given. You can walk into all three buildings before you buy, which is the most useful thing any Al Furjan developer can offer.

For Indian buyers

Al Furjan is freehold, so an Indian citizen can own here outright with a DLD title deed, in their own name. Dubai charges no annual property tax; the recurring cost is the service charge.

At about AED 1,019,400 — roughly USD 278,000 — the entry one-bed sits just over one person's USD 250,000 Liberalised Remittance Scheme allowance for a financial year. Buy jointly with a spouse or family member and you have USD 500,000 between you, or use an instalment structure and let the payments fall across two financial years. If Deyaar's post-handover plan is still available, that second route is unusually easy here, because the payments are already spread by design. Your bank will want the sale agreement and the DLD or escrow payment details, and TCS applies on the remittance above the current threshold.

On residency: the one-bed is far below the AED 2 M Golden Visa threshold. The 1,743 sq ft three-bed is the only unit that might reach it and its price is not published, so ask. On tax at home, rent from Dubai is taxable in India for a resident at slab rates as income from house property with the standard 30% deduction, and the property goes in Schedule FA of your return. The UAE takes nothing, so there is no credit to set off — plan the yield after Indian tax, not before it.

Pros

• Ready since September 2025 — a year of real rents and a real service-charge budget to check
• Backed by Dubai Islamic Bank and listed on the DFM, stronger backing than most Al Furjan developers have
• About AED 1,317 per sq ft at entry, just under the community average
• Large apartments for the price band, with one-beds running to 1,178 sq ft
• A post-handover instalment structure may still be available on unsold stock — rare on a finished building
• Ground-floor retail in the building itself, which helps tenants and resale appeal
• 117 units, so your listing is not competing with hundreds of identical ones

Cons

• A long amenity list shared by only 117 owners, which tends to push the service charge to the top of the range
• The building's own approved service charge is not published — and here it is the number that decides the net yield
• No studios, so the highest-yielding Al Furjan layout is not available
• Large one-beds cost more in absolute terms than the small units that dominate local rental demand
• The entry price is below the AED 2 M Golden Visa threshold and the three-bed's price is not published
• Al Furjan keeps absorbing heavy new supply, which sits on rent growth
• As a 2025 building it has no long-term maintenance history to judge

Who this is for

• Buyers who want a ready, recently finished building with a year of operating history to inspect
• Investors who can still get the post-handover plan and let the unit while paying it down
• End users who want a large one- or two-bed near the metro without Marina prices
• Anyone who puts weight on a bank-backed, listed developer over a private launch

Who should look elsewhere

• Yield-first investors who want the smallest, highest-returning layout
• Buyers who need the purchase to clear the AED 2 M Golden Visa threshold
• Anyone unwilling to check the building's actual service charge before offering
• Investors who want a long construction-linked plan — this building is already finished

Our verdict

Rosalia is one of the more solid propositions in Al Furjan, and the reason is the developer rather than the design. Deyaar is exchange-listed and owned by Dubai Islamic Bank, it has finished three buildings in this community, and this one was delivered on schedule in September 2025 — so instead of trusting a brochure you can read a statement and a rent roll. The pricing is fair rather than cheap, and it is fair for apartments that are genuinely larger than the local norm.

Check the running cost hardest. A pool, a jacuzzi, a splash pad, a gym, a cinema room, a multipurpose hall and a barbecue area are a lot of shared plant for 117 owners to carry. And ask Deyaar whether the post-handover instalment plan still applies to unsold units: paying down 40% of the price while a tenant is already in the apartment is worth considerably more than a small discount on a resale.

FAQs

What does an apartment at Rosalia Residences cost?

One-bedroom apartments start at about AED 1,019,400 (about Rs 2.62 crore) from 774 sq ft, which is roughly AED 1,317 per sq ft — just under Al Furjan's community average of AED 1,350 to 1,400. Two- and three-bedroom prices are not separately published by the sources we checked. The source listing carries the project without a price, so ask for the current list.

Is the building ready?

Yes. Rosalia Residences was delivered in September 2025 and has been occupied for about a year. That is a useful stage to buy at, because the first service-charge budget is set and early rents have been signed, so you can check real numbers instead of projections.

Can I still get the post-handover payment plan?

It depends on whether Deyaar still holds unsold units. The plan as launched was 10% on booking, 36% during construction, 14% at handover and 40% after handover, with portals also quoting a version spreading the last 40% over 40 months. On a finished, rentable apartment that structure is genuinely valuable — the tenant helps pay the balance — so ask the developer directly before you look at resales.

How big are the apartments?

One-beds run 774 to 1,178 sq ft, two-beds 1,208 to 1,731 sq ft, and the three-bed is 1,743 sq ft. These are large for the price band, so compare rate per sq ft rather than headline price when you set this building against its neighbours.

What are the service charges?

The building's approved rate is not published by the sources we checked, and here it matters more than usual: 117 owners share a pool, jacuzzi, splash pad, gym, cinema room, multipurpose hall and barbecue area. Al Furjan buildings run AED 12 to 15 per sq ft a year, but a small building with a long amenity list tends to land at the upper end. Get the RERA-approved statement for the first year before you agree a price.

What rental yield can I expect?

Al Furjan apartments generally return 6.5 to 8% gross, with the top of that band belonging to studios and small one-beds. On a 774 sq ft one-bed at AED 1,019,400 you would need roughly AED 66,000 to 81,000 a year to reach it. Net will be 1.5 to 2 points lower after the service charge, agency fees and a vacancy allowance.

Who is the developer?

Deyaar Development, listed on the Dubai Financial Market and a subsidiary of Dubai Islamic Bank. It entered 2026 with a pipeline reported at about AED 7 billion after a 26% rise in profit. Rosalia is its third project in Al Furjan, from a community portfolio worth about AED 300 million; its first there, Amalia Residences, sold out.

Does the purchase qualify for a Golden Visa?

The entry one-bed at about AED 1,019,400 is well below the AED 2 M property threshold, so no. The three-bedroom price is not published, so do not assume it clears the bar — get it in writing if a visa is part of your plan.

Can an Indian citizen buy here?

Yes. Al Furjan is freehold, so any nationality can own outright with a DLD title deed. At about AED 1,019,400 — roughly USD 278,000 — the purchase is just over one person's USD 250,000 LRS allowance for a financial year, so either buy jointly with a family member or use an instalment structure that spreads the remittance across two years.

What is the retail boulevard?

The ground floor is given over to shops rather than parking or lobby space. For a tenant that means a cafe or a convenience store downstairs; for an owner it means the building has its own footfall and a slightly different service-charge structure, since retail and residential areas are usually budgeted separately. Ask how the two are apportioned.
