05 Mar 2026 CW Team

The company said the Majan asset is Grade A, newly developed, fully occupied and supported by a stable tenant profile and attractive rental yields, with views facing Al Barari. It comprises a mix of studio, one- and two-bedroom residences and amenities, and the acquisition was described as reflecting disciplined asset selection and structured execution under the DIFC regulatory framework. Management said the asset profile and location are bolstering institutional confidence in the UAE market.

The fund continues to attract institutional fund managers, family offices and ultra high net worth investors across the GCC and India, widening its international capital base. The company noted this is the fourth residential deployment by the fund and that the milestone reflects disciplined capital allocation, robust execution and investor trust in the high-yield growth strategy. Senior executives added that the fund remains focused on identifying scalable opportunities and delivering value in high-growth markets.

Majan is a mixed-use community in Dubai Land covering approximately one point four five square kilometres, located along Sheikh Mohammed Bin Zayed Road with access to Downtown Dubai, Business Bay and Dubai International Airport. The masterplan allocates around 32 per cent to residential use, 44 per cent to retail and commercial activities and 24 per cent to leisure and cultural facilities, and the built environment is dominated by mid-rise apartment complexes offering affordable housing near schools and healthcare facilities. Company-cited data noted Dubai recorded transactions totalling Dh917 billion, or USD 250 billion, across three point one one million deals in 2025, a seven per cent increase in volume and a 24 per cent rise in investors to 193,100.
