Property choices

However, it’s an expensive area full of skyscrapers and there are not as many green spaces as there are in other parts of the city, which is perhaps what makes it a more popular choice for businesses.

Residential properties in the Business Bay area come in various sizes and are at the luxury end of the scale. You can find everything from studios to 4+ bedroom apartments, to penthouses and duplexes.

Commercial properties offer spacious interiors that are ideal for companies seeking office space in a convenient and up-and-coming location with great views to boot. Business Bay is a popular area for those looking to invest and has recorded high growth rates in the past few years.
