What this means for your mortgage

We believe that at around AED 1,237 per square foot, Jumeirah Village Circle (JVC) offers a viable entry point into central Dubai. However, the reduced transaction volume indicates that sellers may be more open to negotiation than the average price of AED 1,112,000 suggests. As a rough estimate, a typical one-bedroom at this price point would cost about AED 4,429 a month on an 80% mortgage.
