Barsha Heights
Who Barsha Heights suits: and who it doesn't
The register files it under Al Thanyah First, which is clean, so the numbers on this page are the district’s own. It is a rental market: tenants who work in Internet City and Media City and want to walk to the office, which keeps occupancy high and rents steady without the premium of the Greens next door. Stock is older and mid-market, so buy for the yield and the tenant pool, inspect the building’s service charge history, and do not expect Marina-style capital growth. , Equity Edge analyst note
Where Barsha Heights sits
Barsha Heights, still called TECOM by most of Dubai, is the block of mid-rise towers between Sheikh Zayed Road and Al Barsha, next to Dubai Internet City and Media City and served by the Dubai Internet City metro station. It is a working district first: offices, hotels and apartment buildings mixed street by street, with the Greens and Emirates Hills across the road and the Marina one stop down the line.
