Ahad Residences, Business Bay: Apartments from AED 1M to AED 2.6M
Ahad Residences is a residential apartment tower in Business Bay, developed by Ahad Group. The project runs from studios through three-bedroom apartments, with unit sizes spanning 417 sq ft at the compact end to 2,769 sq ft for the largest three-bedroom layouts. That range is broad for a single development and shapes the buyer profile considerably depending on which part of the range you are looking at.
Business Bay: What the Address Delivers Day to Day
Business Bay sits adjacent to Downtown Dubai, with the Dubai Canal running along its edge. The Dubai Mall and Burj Khalifa are under 10 minutes by car. The Metro's Business Bay station is within walking distance, connecting residents to the Red Line across the city. Sheikh Zayed Road is minutes away, giving car users direct access toward the Marina, JLT, and Abu Dhabi.
The project lists water and landmark views among its amenities, placing some units on the canal-facing and city-skyline side of the building.
Reading the Price Range
Pricing runs from AED 1,021,239 to AED 2,632,687. The spread reflects the full bedroom ladder, and the per-square-foot picture shifts significantly across units.
Studios range from 417 to 1,025 sq ft, all listed from AED 1,021,239. The compact 417 sq ft format prices at roughly AED 2,450 per sq ft. The 1,025 sq ft studio brings that rate down to just under AED 1,000 per sq ft, a very different value entry point. One-bedrooms run 796 to 1,829 sq ft from AED 1,689,476. Two-bedrooms cover 1,375 to 2,606 sq ft from AED 2,358,822. Three-bedrooms open at AED 2,632,687 across 1,923 to 2,769 sq ft.
The entry end suits investors focused on rental yield. The larger two- and three-bedroom units target families or professionals who want space at a central Dubai address.

Having both a private gym and a shared gym suggests tiered unit offerings within the building, with larger layouts carrying their own private facilities. Concierge and maid service together signal a serviced-residence approach, which aligns with the maids room and study included in larger unit configurations. The amenity set targets a full-time resident rather than a short-stay or basic rental product.
Pets are allowed, which matters for owner-occupiers and for landlords targeting tenants with animals.
Timeline: Past the Original Completion Date
Construction started in February 2018 and was scheduled for completion by June 2023. That date has passed. The project is likely already handed over, meaning buyers today are entering a completed or near-completed asset rather than an off-plan position with years until delivery.
Getting In: 25% Down, 60% at Handover
| Stage | Percentage |
|---|---|
| Down Payment | 25% |
| During Construction | 15% |
| Handover | 60% |
The plan takes 25% at down payment, 15% through construction, and concentrates 60% at handover. For a project at or past its original completion date, that handover tranche is the primary financial event for any buyer entering today. The full balance clears at a single payment, with no post-handover installments following.
