180-Room G+4 Labour Camp for Sale in Jebel Ali Industrial Area — 880-Person DM-Approved Capacity

Description

A substantial G+4 labour camp in Jebel Ali Industrial Area is available for outright purchase at AED 50,000,000 (net to owner), offering corporate occupiers and income-focused investors a rare, large-format workers' accommodation asset in one of Dubai's most active industrial corridors. VAT applies as per applicable regulations, and a 4% transfer fee is payable to the Dubai Land Department on completion.

The building sits on a 20,000 sq ft plot with a total built-up area of 80,000 sq ft, delivering a price point of approximately AED 625 per sq ft on built-up area — as noted in the listing's investment overview. The 50-year land lease runs from 2017 to 2067, providing long-term tenure security in line with Dubai's standard industrial leasehold framework. The property is currently occupied and will be vacated upon transfer, so buyers should factor a handover timeline into their acquisition planning.

Key physical specifications include 180 rooms with a DM-approved total capacity of 880 people, purpose-built to Dubai Municipality standards for workers' accommodation. Parking provisions accommodate 10 buses (50-seater each), which is significant for any operator managing shift-based workforce logistics across Jebel Ali's manufacturing, logistics, or port-adjacent industries.

Buyers should be aware that this is a commercial property transaction subject to 5% VAT. The structure of VAT liability — whether the supply is standard-rated, zero-rated, or exempt — depends on the nature of the transfer and buyer's registration status. For a detailed breakdown of how VAT applies to Dubai commercial property acquisitions, the article on handling the 5% VAT obligation on Dubai commercial property is a useful starting instructing legal counsel.

For investors evaluating this asset on a yield basis, understanding prevailing commercial capitalisation rates in Dubai is essential to model a realistic return. The Dubai commercial cap rates guide for 2026 covers the segments where yields are strongest — and where compression has already set in — providing context for how labour camp assets sit within the broader commercial investment landscape.
