As a rough 2026 guide, always verified per building: budget areas like JVC and International City run about AED 8-15/sq ft; Dubai Marina and Business Bay around AED 14-28; premium Downtown and DIFC towers AED 17-40+. Villa communities are usually lower on maintenance but vary widely, roughly AED 2-15/sq ft depending on shared facilities.
