Great apartments to buy in Dubai
If you're looking to invest in property abroad you should consider the Emirate of Dubai in the Persian Gulf - it's a very exciting time to buy in Dubai at the moment as there's a huge amount of development going on, and a large percentage of this is luxury apartments. Aside from the famous projects such as The World and Palm Island in Jebel Ali there are whole new areas springing up such as The Lagoons on the banks of the Dubai Creek, the waterway around which the city is built, dividing Dubai and Deira Dubai. The Lagoons is 70 million square feet and will be made up of seven landscaped islands linked by bridges, with apartments and penthouses as well as shopping centres, offices and marinas. There will also be five star hotels, and even an opera house, theatre, planetarium, art gallery and a museum. One of the developments within The Lagoons, Flamingo Cove, is pictured left. This will comprise studios and one, two and three bed apartments with a self-contained shopping area, swimming pool, gym, sauna and steam room.

One highly prestigious development in Dubai is Zero Five Zero, a collection of luxury studio, one, two and three bedroom apartments and penthouses, located near the beach in Dubai Waterfront - very close to the famous Palm in Jebel Ali. The government of Dubai had reserved the waterfront area for their own developments but early in 2008 released some of it's prime real estate to private companies and investors, and it's now one of the most sought-after parts of Dubai. Each apartment in Zero Five Zero features air conditioning as standard, a fully fitted kitchen, safe, terrace, connections for TV and internet and storage. Add to that the amazing views over the sea from the full length windows and the benefits outside of your own apartment (plenty of parking space, garages, gym, landscaped gardens and communal pool) and you've got a pretty special and desirable property.
