An affordably priced Emaar golf community — 5-10 minutes from DWC.

Emaar South

Emaar South is an Emaar golf community at the heart of the Dubai South district, built around an 18-hole golf course. It sits 5-10 minutes from Al Maktoum International (DWC), set to become the world's largest airport. It offers the lowest entry price among Emaar's golf communities (AED 700-1,300 per sq ft versus AED 1,200-3,500 at Jumeirah Golf Estates). Villas average around AED 4.9M (roughly 3,348 sq ft). Current rental yields are modest (4-4.3% for villas) — the area is in an early stage of maturation — but it carries significant capital-appreciation potential over a 5-10 year horizon.

THE DATA

The numbers. No fluff.

Emaar South is <b>Emaar's most affordable golf community</b> — a rare combination of the Emaar brand, an 18-hole golf course and an accessible price point. Current rental yields are modest (4-4.3%), reflecting the area's growth stage — the community still needs to establish itself in terms of retail, dining and schools. As the community is completed and the Gold Line arrives in 2032, yields and property values are expected to rise significantly. A long-term play.

GOOD TO KNOW

Common questions about Emaar South.

What makes Emaar South special?+

The Emaar brand + an 18-hole golf course + an accessible price — a rare combination. It is the most affordable of Emaar's golf communities (AED 700-1,300 per sq ft versus 1,200-3,500 at JGE). Its proximity to DWC and Expo City creates substantial growth potential.

What yield can I expect?+

Current rental yield: 4-4.3% for villas and around 4.1% for townhouses. As the community is completed (2027-2030), apartment yields are expected to reach 6-9%. Today this is a capital-appreciation area rather than one for maximum cash flow.

What is the entry price?+

1-2BR apartments: AED 850K - 1.6 million. Townhouses: AED 2.5-4 million. 4BR golf villas: AED 4.5-7 million. 5-6BR golf villas: AED 7-15 million.
