Mulk Properties

Prospect has entered into a strategic partnership with Mulk Properties. The partnership signed is to formalise the development of The LX, valued at AED 350 million, located in the heart of Arjan. The strategic collaboration also brings together One Broker Group, an award-winning, developer-focused real estate agency in Dubai, as the exclusive sales partner for the project.

This landmark agreement marks a significant step toward reshaping Dubai’s commercial property landscape, with the signing ceremony held on 7th May at MayaBay, Jumeirah Al Naseem, Dubai. In 2024, the Dubai commercial property market recorded a 24% jump in growth, with almost 3,000 office units sold, with transactions valued at AED 89.9 Billion*. This double digit YoY growth pattern is expected to continue with more and more companies registering with Dubai Chamber of Commerce and the lack of office spaces to meet this demand.

Dubai’s commercial real estate market is experiencing dynamic growth across all sectors. The city’s strategic location, business-friendly policies, and infrastructure developments continue to attract global investors and companies, positioning Dubai as a leading commercial hub in the region. According to the UAE Commercial Construction Industry Report of 2025, the sector was valued at AED 156 billion in 2024 and is projected to reach AED 207  billion by 2030, reflecting robust growth with a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.7%**

“At Prospect, we are proud to partner with Mulk Properties — the real estate development arm of the global conglomerate Mulk International, known for their innovation, scale, and leadership across businesses across 4 continents,” said Rohit Verma, Co-founder of Prospect. “Our vision aligns deeply with our partners and together we want to create purpose-built, high-performance workspaces that cater to the next generation of business owners. Arjan is one of the most exciting emerging districts in Dubai today, with a steady pipeline of residential and hospitality developments. We will now bring a unique aspect to the real estate landscape of Arjan with our commercial development catered to a huge market gap for offices and retail spaces. Its central location near major highways, established communities, and key business zones makes it an ideal destination for a future-forward commercial asset. We believe The LX will become a signature address for modern businesses in Dubai and we look forward to this journey with Mulk Properties.”

“It is indeed our pleasure to partner with Prospect as we continue to expand our unique real estate portfolio. After Zim Cyber City, our state-of-the-art mixed-use development in Harare, Zimbabwe and the sprawling  Ajman Sports Complex spread across 1 million square feet, we are excited to explore the Dubai commercial real estate market, which is growing exponentially,” said Nawab Shaji Ul Mulk, Chairman of Mulk International. “With Prospect’s strategic involvement, we are confident that our upcoming project The LX will become a destination of choice for forward-thinking entrepreneurs, retailers, and investors looking for both prestige and practicality.”

Umar Bin Farooq, Founder & CEO of One Broker Group (OBG), added: “We are proud to lead the sales on this landmark project. The LX represents the future of commercial developments, where design meets function, and where businesses can thrive. Arjan’s growth trajectory and connectivity also make this a project of incredible promise. At OBG, we’ve successfully transacted over AED 7 billion in residential sales. We believe this sector is primed for strong demand—especially in underserved locations like Arjan. Businesses are looking for elevated, flexible office environments, and The LX delivers exactly that. With its premium finishes, retail integration, and F&B offerings, it will offer a complete ecosystem for both investors and end users.”

Designed to meet the evolving demands of modern businesses, The LX will feature 71 boutique office and spacious retail units. With generous balconies, refined finishes, and a dedicated F&B hub, the project balances clean, modern design with practical commercial functionality. The development is currently in the off-plan stage, with a targeted handover in Q1 2027. With seamless access to Sheikh Zayed Road, The LX enjoys unparalleled connectivity and visibility, making it an ideal business address in a rapidly expanding community.

The project also aligns with Prospect’s long-term strategy of investing in future-ready, design-led developments with high growth potential across Dubai. This partnership further cements Mulk Properties’ commitment to diversifying its real estate portfolio in the UAE, while reinforcing Prospect’s growing reputation for identifying and enabling landmark investments in emerging neighborhoods.

WHY DEVELOPERS SHOULD ADOPT AN INVESTOR MINDSET IN EVOLVING REAL ESTATE MARKET

In today’s buoyant UAE Real Estate landscape, conventional metrics like unit sales volumes are becoming obsolete. Instead, genuine success increasingly lies in value measured through long-term rental income, growth, asset quality, and capital appreciation. Developers who adopt an investor-led mindset, prioritising yield, durability, and premium standards, are effectively shaping the future of the sector in the UAE.

From Selling Today to Earning Tomorrow

To achieve this shift, developers must transcend the traditional focus on one-time sales. Developers must embrace business models that generate sustainable rental income, ensuring a predictable stream of cash flow even during market fluctuations. Future-focused project planning must integrate rental viability, anchoring developments in steady long-term returns rather than immediate, speculative gains. This investor-first approach positions developers for long-term growth.

Rental Market Momentum: Major Growth Engine

The UAE’s residential leases market is projected to reach USD 27.98 billion in 2025 and USD 33.10 billion by 2029 at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 4.3 per cent. Developers who prioritise rental-ready, high-quality units will be best placed to capture this expanding market, appealing both to residents seeking premium housing and to investors seeking reliable returns. This demonstrates the enormous potential that rental-centric development strategies hold.

Supply Growth and Still Solid Returns

Despite expectations of 180,000 new residential units by 2026, rental yields remain strong at 7.4 per cent. This reveals persistent demand, indicating prime opportunities for value-added investments. Developers can capitalise this by offering thoughtfully designed projects with integrated amenities and sustainability features on strategic locations, elements that elevate rental income and investor appeal.

Attracting Global Capital through Investment-First Mindset

The UAE’s progressive policies such as long-term visas, free zones for Real Estate, and investor-friendly reforms, continue to magnetise international and institutional capital. By adopting an investor-first mindset, developers can meet this evolving demand by offering investment-grade opportunities and high-quality, income-generating assets that appeal to discerning global investors.

Differentiating Through Quality

To differentiate in this present market increasingly defined by long-term value rather than rapid turnover, excellence in design, exceptional finishes and long-term value are keys. Developers who invest in durability, sustainability, and strategic positioning, beyond sheer scale, will attract tenant loyalty and investor confidence. This differentiation fosters both brand equity and financial resilience.

Aligning with Future: Investor Mindset as Strategy

As the UAE Real Estate landscape evolves, we can safely state that those developers that think like investors will certainly emerge as leaders. By aligning projects with long-term income generation, adhering to global investment standards, and offering quality-driven, sustainable developments, they lay the groundwork for enduring success.

This dynamic Real Estate environment is not merely a passing trend but a blueprint for sustainable, value-based growth in the UAE market. Developers who embrace this investor-led vision, integrating rental yield, design excellence, and global standards, will not only thrive but also redefine the future of the sector.

Dubai’s tallest commercial tower honors’ two decades of architectural innovation

OMNIYAT, Dubai’s visionary ultra-luxury developer, has officially launched LUMENA ALTA, a 380-metre landmark redefining the city’s skyline. Upon completion in 2030, it will become Business Bay’s tallest commercial tower.

The launch also celebrates OMNIYAT’s 20th anniversary, symbolizing two decades of design, craftsmanship, and creativity. Moreover, with a Gross Development Value above AED 5 billion, LUMENA ALTA continues the success of LUMENA and ENARA, reaffirming OMNIYAT’s position as a leader in luxury real estate.


A Vision Elevated

From its name, LUMENA ALTA captures light and ambition. “Lumena,” derived from the Latin lumen, evokes brilliance and creativity, while “Alta,” meaning elevated, conveys height and aspiration. Together, they express OMNIYAT’s guiding principle – The Art of Elevation.

Furthermore, the tower’s spiraling glass façade reflects sunlight by day and glows softly by night. Its fluid design embodies motion and progress, mirroring Dubai’s rise as a global capital of innovation.


Workspaces That Inspire

Designed for global visionaries, LUMENA ALTA blends performance, wellbeing, and prestige in one vertical destination. Triple-height sky lobbies, panoramic terraces, and bright atria bring openness and balance to every floor. In addition, landscaped sky gardens and private terraces connect work with nature, creating calm within energy.

Strategically located on Sheikh Zayed Road, the tower provides direct access to Downtown Dubai, DIFC, and the future Dubai Metro Gold Line. Together with its twin, LUMENA, it forms a luminous gateway to Business Bay – a landmark of connectivity, commerce, and culture.


A World Above Expectation

Crowning the structure, a five-star lifestyle hotel merges hospitality with architectural artistry. Its Sky Pool, suspended 335 metres above the city, will be the world’s highest infinity pool.

At the summit, the Sky Restaurant will deliver panoramic 360° views of Dubai’s skyline and coastline. Each evening will blend gastronomy, design, and spectacle – a sensory experience above the clouds.

Moreover, wellbeing defines the tower’s rhythm. Private fitness suites, hydrotherapy zones, vitality pools, and spa sanctuaries offer renewal throughout the day. A 25-metre indoor lap pool completes a lifestyle that balances achievement and serenity.


Service Beyond Space

As with all OMNIYAT masterpieces, LUMENA ALTA offers service that matches its design. A dedicated concierge team manages reception, meetings, and lifestyle coordination. Furthermore, residents and guests can access tailored experiences – from wellness scheduling and luxury travel to event planning and personal shopping.

Drawing inspiration from The Opus, One at Palm Jumeirah, and The Lana, OMNIYAT turns architecture into living art, ensuring every interaction feels seamless and refined.


Smart, Sustainable and Future-Ready

LUMENA ALTA is engineered to achieve LEED Platinum, Platinum WELL, Platinum WiredScore, and SmartScore Certifications. These standards emphasise sustainability, technology, and human wellbeing. Consequently, the tower establishes a new benchmark for intelligent, future-focused commercial spaces.


A Legacy of Ambition and Artistry

Reflecting on the milestone, Mahdi Amjad, Founder and Executive Chairman of OMNIYAT, said:

“Dubai attracts global enterprises that value excellence and creativity. As demand for premium space grows, OMNIYAT will keep reshaping the skyline with bold, intelligent designs that inspire progress.”

Over the past two decades, OMNIYAT has evolved from a developer into a curator of architectural art. With LUMENA ALTA, the company begins a new chapter – one where art, architecture, and ambition converge to define Dubai’s next horizon.

Sobha Realty has announced strong initial sales at its flagship Downtown UAQ | Sobha Realty master development, reinforcing rising investor confidence in Umm Al Quwain as the UAE’s next coastal growth hub.

Within just one week of its launch, the developer confirmed that over 50% of units in the first three residential towers were sold, setting a new benchmark for sales velocity in the northern emirates.

The 25-million-square-foot master development, located along Umm Al Quwain’s natural waterfront, is envisioned as the Coastal Skyline of the Future. The project integrates premium residences, commercial hubs, hospitality offerings, and lifestyle amenities to create an exceptional living experience. It is designed to balance modern living with environmental stewardship, with more than half of the total land area dedicated to open and green spaces.

The master plan spans 11 kilometers of pristine waterfront and includes over 7 kilometers of uninterrupted natural beach, two marinas, landscaped boulevards, and future-ready mobility solutions such as water taxis. It will also feature the UAQ Trade Centre, premium office space, and leisure attractions to strengthen its position as a mixed-use destination.

The first residential cluster, Sobha Aquamont, was unveiled earlier this year and comprises three towers of one-, two-, and three-bedroom waterfront apartments. The towers are designed to maximize natural light and coastal views, in line with Sobha Realty’s emphasis on luxury, craftsmanship, and sustainability.

“Umm Al Quwain is emerging as a highly attractive destination for residents and investors seeking world-class coastal living in a natural environment,” said Francis Alfred, Managing Director of Sobha Realty. “The strong sales response at Downtown UAQ reflects both the confidence in Sobha Realty’s vision and the growing appeal of Umm Al Quwain as a market poised for long-term growth.”

Adding to Sobha Realty’s expanding UAE portfolio of luxury communities, Downtown UAQ | Sobha Realty reinforces the company’s reputation for engineering excellence and sustainable urban design. It also highlights the growing momentum of mixed-use coastal projects in the UAE, which are attracting increasing interest from both domestic buyers and international investors.

By setting a new sales benchmark in its opening week, Downtown UAQ | Sobha Realty has established itself as one of the region’s most ambitious and promising waterfront destinations.
