Emaar South is a large-scale, master-planned development by Emaar Properties expected to cover 110 sq. mi upon completion. Designed as a self-sustained district within a close proximity to Al Maktoum International Airport, it includes commercial centers, facilitated logistics complexes and 6 residential mid-rise communities providing 80 000 homes. What’s more, there are several hotels ranking from 3 to 5 stars, a golf resort and the EXPO 2021 exhibition site in the vicinity.

The airport has an annual capacity of more than 160 mln passengers and 12 million tons of freight. It is intended to handle all types of aircraft and provide additional services like manufacturing and assembly.

This would allow Al Maktoum International Airport the largest air hub in the world with extensive opportunities for passenger and cargo traffic.

The area has excellent road links including all main transport arteries of the city: Mohammed bin Zayed Rd, Sheikh Zayed Rd, Emirates Rd. There is a proposed metro line that will connect the locality with Dubai International Airport and a light railway for easy travel within Dubai.

When buying real properties by Emaar in Dubai South, one may expect about 5% of rental return derived from a 1-bedroom apartment. Worthy to mention that being under an active development and actually supervised by the Government, the neighbourhood has an enormous economic potential and that may reflect on the prices in future.
