Dubai Property Under 1 Million AED: The Published Entry Prices
Searching for Dubai property under 1 million AED? Azizi Venice, Astra Residences and Serenz by Danube all publish entry prices below that mark, each in a different district.
Dubai property under 1 million AED exists, and more than one option, spread across different districts rather than concentrated in a single building. Three projects in the Orven collection currently publish entry prices below that mark: Azizi Venice, Astra Residences and Serenz by Danube.
The three published entry prices under 1 million AED
- Azizi Venice, Dubai South: from AED 550,000, studio to three-bedroom apartments within an 18-kilometre Crystal Lagoon masterplan with a 700-metre retail boulevard.
- Astra Residences, Dubai South (Dugasta): from AED 579,000, a low-rise building with a 40/60 payment plan and a Q3 2027 handover.
- Serenz by Danube, Jumeirah Village Circle: from AED 850,000, a 30/70 payment plan and more than 40 amenities across 120,000 sq ft.
| Project | Area | Entry price | Payment plan | Handover |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Azizi Venice | Dubai South | AED 550,000 | 30/70, publicly marketed, not confirmed on the official page | On request |
| Astra Residences | Dubai South | AED 579,000 | 40/60 | Q3 2027 |
| Serenz by Danube | JVC | AED 850,000 | 30/70 | 2029 |
Why Azizi Venice's payment plan needs a caveat
Azizi Venice's 30/70 split is publicly marketed, but the exact current structure was not confirmed on the official page at the time of verification. Treat the percentages as indicative rather than final, and ask your adviser to confirm the live structure before reserving, rather than relying on the headline split alone.
Astra Residences: a straightforward 40/60 plan
Astra's 40/60 payment plan is confirmed, with the balance due by the Q3 2027 handover. At AED 579,000 for the lowest published unit, it is currently the cheapest confirmed structure among the three, in a 108-apartment building with a pool, gym and landscaped gardens.
Serenz by Danube: the highest of the three, with the most amenities
Serenz sits at the top of this group by entry price, AED 850,000, still comfortably under 1 million. In exchange, the project carries a larger amenity programme, including a resort-style pool and a children's aqua park, inside a 50-plus-25-storey tower in JVC.
Two Dubai South projects compared to one JVC project
Azizi Venice and Astra Residences both sit in Dubai South, but at very different scales: Azizi Venice is part of a masterplan designed for more than 30,000 residential units across roughly 100 buildings, while Astra Residences is a single low-rise building of 108 apartments. Serenz by Danube, in JVC, offers a different district entirely, with quicker access to Al Khail Road, Circle Mall and Sheikh Zayed Road than either Dubai South option.

Why the scale of Azizi Venice matters for a budget buyer
A project the size of Azizi Venice's masterplan typically releases inventory in phases over several years, which can mean more opportunities to find a unit near the published entry price over time, compared with a smaller, single-building project like Astra Residences where the lowest-priced units may sell out faster within one release.
What the entry price does not include
Each figure above is the developer's published starting price for the smallest unit, typically a studio. None of these numbers includes the Dubai Land Department's 4% registration fee on a completed sale, or the fixed Oqood fee for an off-plan reservation; both are confirmed separately at contract stage, and neither should be derived from the entry price shown here.
A quick note on checking availability before you commit
Entry prices at this budget level tend to move faster than at higher price points, since a larger pool of buyers competes for the same lowest-priced units. Confirming current stock with your adviser before settling on one of these three avoids planning around a unit that has already sold.
Financing under 1 million AED
Bank financing for certain non-residents is possible, subject to the lender's own approval, with no interest rate or loan-to-value ratio quoted here. At this budget level, many buyers choose the developer's own instalment plan instead of, or alongside, bank financing; your adviser can lay out both options once you have a shortlist.
