I also see a lot of new villa fit-outs in Jumeirah Islands.

Does that fit your personal criteria for a return you'd like to get on your investment? 

Also, off-market opportunities can be a great way to find deals that fit specific investment strategies.

Connecting with local investors and agents can also help you identify the best markets that fit your goals.Good luck!

My plan is to develop five 1,200 SF units, allowing tenants to lease multiple units if they require more space.Recently, a 62,000 SF medical building from a Reputed Hospital Name opened directly across the property, which reinforced my belief that a medical office setup would be a strong fit for this location.

Plus, as you mentioned, you could always tap into the equity later on to continue expanding.At the end of the day, it’s about what fits best with your goals.

@William Weston You don't have to house hack, but if you could fit your family of 5 in a 3BR unit, would this work: https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/8104-Chesw...?

Short-term stays tend to bring higher revenue, but long-term rentals can provide stability.If the area gets strong tourist traffic, STRs could be a great fit.

Can you send me a couple addresses of projects that someone completed that fit your model?

I believe it fits your parameters.
