Branded residences in Dubai

Introduction

In 2010, Armani Residences within Burj Khalifa became the first branded residences to enter the Dubai scene. The demand has never really weakened but has been on the rise ever since. Dubai has experienced growth in this niche market over the years.

Dubai seems to come up with surprise after surprise in the form of alluring plans for premium and global hospitality brands looking to attract affluent buyers and investors. In effect, it has become the global capital of branded residences.

What is a Branded Residence?

Branded residences are the result of a collaboration between developers and well-established brands. The brand gives the developer the right to promote and sell properties bearing their trademark. To maintain standards, the brand often oversees and services the residential homes associated with its brand.

What sets branded residences apart from other non-branded residences in Dubai is that the brand often supervises and maintains the properties affiliated with their brand. As a result, they tend to offer a higher and more luxurious standard of services and amenities.

Different Kinds of Branded Residences

• Residential units within hotels
• Residential developments next to hotels
• Stand-alone residential developments
• Residential developments under hotel management

What Makes Branded Residences Investable?

Due to the association with an established brand and the outstanding quality of facilities offered, branded residences are priced higher than non-branded ones.

Furthermore, due to the brand's supervision, branded residences also provide top-notch finishing and service. All this makes it easy to understand why branded residences offer higher capital appreciation than their non-branded counterparts.
