About Serena

Serena is a residential district in Dubai made up of villa communities. It is close to Arabian Ranches and contains three villa communities with 1,530 villas in total. The three communities are Casa Dora, Casa Viva and Bella Casa. Together they make Serena a neighbourhood of family houses rather than apartment buildings, and most streets are lined with low-rise homes. Day-to-day needs are close by. Serena Centre By Dubai Retail is within walking distance, about 400 metres from the district, and there is also a park within walking distance, about 400 metres away. For medical care, Aster Royal Clinic Arabian Ranches is about 1.8 km away. Having shops, green space and a clinic this close means residents can do many ordinary errands without going far from home.

Serena is a villa community of about 1,530 homes, built from 2019 onwards. The villas sit in three communities. Every building was built by one developer, North Dubailand Projects.

Over the last 12 months 74 homes changed hands in Serena at a median of AED 1,550 per sqft, up 9.5% on the year before. The typical sale was AED 3M for a 2,022 sqft home. Rents run at AED 74 per sqft a year, a gross yield of 4.8% at today's prices, below the Dubai-wide 6.0%.

551 rental contracts were registered in the same 12 months, 56% of them renewals, and a typical home rents for AED 150,000 a year.

Buying

Expect a 20% deposit as a UAE resident or 25% as a non-resident on a home under AED 5M, plus the 4% Dubai Land Department transfer fee and about AED 5,000 of registration and trustee costs.

Renting

A typical home rents for AED 150,000 a year. Increases on renewal are capped by the RERA rental index. Landlords in Dubai usually take one to four cheques and a 5% security deposit, and every contract is registered on Ejari, which is where the figures on this page come from.
