Raw District by Imtiaz

Raw District by Imtiaz brings Imtiaz Developments to Jabal Ali with four mid-rise towers on Sheikh Zayed Road. The project offers fully furnished units, Life Pharmacy Metro station within walking distance, and a 60/40 post-handover payment plan designed to let rental income offset a meaningful part of the remaining balance.

JAFZA has around 11,000 companies already operating within walking distance, while Al Maktoum International Airport is expanding nearby. That creates measurable corporate tenant demand from logistics managers, airport staff and JAFZA traders who need to live close to work.

Post-handover investment example: on a 1 BR at AED 1,120,000, the buyer pays 60% before handover. Estimated rent from Q2 2029 is around AED 90,000 per year, while post-handover payments are around AED 149,400 per year. Rent covers more than half of the post-handover obligation while the client already owns and operates the asset.

With service charge at approximately AED 18 per sq ft, a 1 BR has around AED 13,000 annual service charge against roughly AED 90,000 rental income. Alnair's example shows the apartment costing around AED 934,000 by 2032 instead of AED 1,165,000, making the final invested amount about 20% lower and giving an estimated 8.2% ROI if rents remain unchanged.

Who this works for:

• Investors targeting 8%+ net yield in a corporate-tenant district with post-handover financing built into the structure
• Clients who want metro-connected Sheikh Zayed Road positioning below AED 1,800 per sq ft
• Buyers comparing Business Bay and Arjan who want stronger tenant quality and a better payment structure
