Villa in Al Sabkha, 3 schlafzimmer, 1300000 AED - 16900011

This advertisement talks about a residential house for sale in the Al Sabkha area, and it seems to be a suitable option for anyone looking for a spacious residential property, whether for the purpose of personal residence or real estate investment and obtaining an annual rental income. The asking price for the house is one million and three hundred thousand UAE dirhams, or 1,300,000 dirhams, and the land area is 8,100 square feet, which is a relatively large area that allows comfortable use of the property in terms of housing, outdoor spaces, and parking.

The house is located in the Al-Sabkha area, specifically in the second piece of the street that separates the Al-Ikhalat and Umm Khanour areas. The location of the property is one of the important details that should be paid attention to when evaluating it, because its proximity to the streets separating the areas may facilitate access to it and movement to and from it. The house is also located on a corner, meaning it is a corner property, which is an advantage that may give it two facades on two streets or a greater exposure area compared to houses located between two properties, depending on the nature of the layout of the streets surrounding it. This feature may be useful in terms of ease of entry and exit, ventilation, and making use of outdoor spaces, but the details of the actual facades and setbacks need to be inspected on the site in person.

In terms of area, the floor area is 8,100 square feet, which is approximately 752.5 square metres. This space is suitable for a family home that provides rooms, halls and multiple facilities, in addition to a parking space. It is important here to distinguish between land area and building area. What is mentioned in the advertisement is the land area only, and there is no specific information about the total building area, the age of the house, or its structural condition, and therefore it is not possible to accurately determine the extent of the interior spaces based on the land area alone.

The main house consists of three bedrooms and three bathrooms, a layout that can suit a small or medium-sized family, depending on the area of the rooms and the nature of their distribution within the house. The three rooms provide an independent space for family members, while the three bathrooms help meet the daily needs of residents and provide a degree of privacy and comfort. However, knowing whether all rooms have closets or whether there is a master bedroom with a private bathroom requires additional information that the ad does not mention.

The house includes a large sitting room, which is an important feature in homes that are interested in receiving guests and allocating a separate space for events and family visits. The large Majlis can provide a comfortable place to receive guests away from the family’s private spaces, which gives the house greater flexibility of use, especially for families that receive visitors frequently.

The house also contains a large hall that constitutes an additional space for daily use, and can be used as a family seating area or a place to relax and spend time with family members. The presence of a large majlis and a large hall together is one of the elements that may make the distribution of the house practical, as the majlis can be allocated for guests and the hall for daily life, instead of relying on one space for all uses.

An additional facility is a maid's room located behind the villa, an arrangement that may provide a space relatively independent of the main parts of the house. This room can help organize the family's daily needs and provide privacy for both family members and the domestic worker. The property also contains a storeroom, or what is known as a storeroom, which can be used to store household items, seasonal items, and equipment that the family does not need to use on a daily basis, which helps maintain the order of the interior spaces.

One of the most prominent details in the property is the presence of an independent annex or additional space consisting of a room, a small hall, a bathroom, and a kitchen. The importance of this accessory lies in the versatility of its possible uses. It can be suitable for hosting a family member, providing an independent space for guests, or using it according to the current design and approved permits. Since the advertisement states that the house is currently rented, it is important to check whether the annex is included in the current lease, and whether the tenant of the property is using it with the main house or if it is rented separately. It cannot be assumed that there is additional income from the supplement unless this is confirmed.

In terms of parking, there is a garage that can accommodate three cars, which is a practical feature for families who own more than one car, and may also help reduce the need to search for parking outside the home. This advantage becomes even more important when considering the property as a family home, as the availability of parking within the boundaries of the property can provide a greater degree of comfort and daily organization.

As for the investment aspect, the advertisement states that the house is currently rented for 80 thousand dirhams annually. This information is important for a buyer who wants to own a property that generates rental income instead of purchasing a vacant property and starting to look for a new tenant. If the rental amount of AED 80,000 per year represents the entire rental income of the property, and the rental is ongoing according to an existing and verifiable contract, the total annual rental return can be calculated by dividing the annual rent by the purchase price.

Based on the asking price of AED 1,300,000, the gross annual rental return is approximately 6.15%, before deducting maintenance costs, repairs, insurance, fees, and any other expenses borne by the owner. The equivalent monthly rental income is about 6,667 dirhams, knowing that the rent is paid according to the terms of the contract and not necessarily on the basis of monthly payments. The actual return remains dependent on the condition of the property, its operating expenses, the terms of the lease, and the tenant’s regular payment.

When evaluating the asking price, it is useful to look at the property as a house on an area of 8,100 square feet, located on a corner in the Al Sabkha area, and includes multiple facilities, including the Majlis, the hall, the maid’s room, the storeroom, the annex, and the garage. However, it cannot be said with certainty whether the price is high or low
