Business Growth and Demand for Homes
January 9, 2026
Como Residences, developed by Nakheel on Palm Jumeirah, is rising towards completion. Planned as one of the tallest residential buildings on the Palm, it offers apartments and penthouses with views over the island, the sea and the city skyline. Its delivery will add a new landmark to the Palm.
What the project offers
- Height: panoramic views across the Palm and the Gulf.
- Space: large apartments and penthouses.
- Amenities: pools, spa, fitness and private beach access.
- Location: on the trunk of the Palm, close to Palm West Beach.
Effects on the Palm
New ultra-prime towers raise the profile of the Palm's apartment market and set new price benchmarks for high-floor homes.
Considerations for buyers
Buyers should consider floor level, orientation, views, service charges and the handover timeline.
The resale market
Ultra-prime apartments in signature towers can achieve strong resale prices, but the pool of buyers is limited and transactions may take time.
Rental market
Large, high-floor apartments attract wealthy tenants and holiday visitors. Professional management helps maintain rental value.
High floors and resale value
In tall residential towers, floor level strongly influences value. Higher floors usually offer wider views, more privacy and less noise, and they command higher prices per square foot. Penthouses at the top are the scarcest units and attract the wealthiest buyers. However, the premium for height varies with what can be seen: a high floor facing an open sea view may be worth far more than one facing another tower. Buyers should consider the direction of views, whether future buildings could block them and how quickly lifts serve upper floors. At resale, units with permanent, unobstructed views tend to sell faster and closer to asking price than similar units with compromised outlooks.
Our view
Como Residences is set to become one of the Palm's most recognisable buildings. We help clients assess units within it and compare them with other prime options.
