Office Spaces | Multiple Options | Bills Included

Overview

Most office budgets have two parts: the rent you see on the listing and the running costs that arrive afterwards. With this 164 sq ft fitted office in Al Saqr Business Tower, Sheikh Zayed Road, the main running costs are already inside the rent. The yearly rent of AED 35,000 includes DEWA and high-speed internet, and the office is cleaned regularly.

That means the figure on the contract is close to what the space actually costs you over the year. For a business that wants an office for rent Dubai finance teams can forecast without surprises, that is the main point of this unit.

The office

The unit is a private office of 164 sq ft inside a business centre in the tower. It is a fitted office for rent Dubai companies can use straight away: an office chair, a table and a cabinet are provided, and central air conditioning is in place.

• Size: 164 sq ft
• Furniture provided: office chair, table and cabinet
• Central A/C
• DEWA and Wi-Fi included
• Regular cleaning
• 24/7 office access

The floor has its own lobby and two shared bathrooms. It is a compact room for a small team, and the agent can confirm how many desks the layout fits before you commit.

Building and location

Al Saqr Business Tower stands on Sheikh Zayed Road. The building lists covered parking, 24/7 security with CCTV, seven high-speed elevators and a service elevator. A pharmacy and a restaurant operate inside.

Emirates Towers and Financial Centre metro stations are both within walking distance, as are Gate Avenue Mall and DIFC. Staff can commute by metro, and clients who drive can use the building's covered parking; ask us how parking is allocated to business centre tenants before you sign. If you need an office for rent Sheikh Zayed Road can offer within walking distance of DIFC, this tower gives you that address at a small-office budget.

Rent, terms and move-in

The rent is AED 35,000 per year. Spread over twelve months that is about AED 2,917, and across 164 sq ft it works out to roughly AED 213 per sq ft per year, with electricity, water and internet inside that figure. When you compare it with a unit where utilities are billed separately, add those bills to the other rent before you decide.

As with most yearly rent Dubai arrangements, the contract runs for the year and payment is split into cheques. The exact number of rent cheques is agreed with the landlord, so ask early if cash flow matters. The usual steps for a commercial lease are:

• Agree the terms and the cheque schedule with the landlord
• Sign the tenancy contract
• Complete the Ejari registration of the contract
• Pay the security deposit, with the amount confirmed by the landlord
• Provide the documents the landlord requests, usually a trade licence copy and the signatory's identification

There is no DEWA account to open, because electricity and water are already covered. The office is ready, so move-in can follow soon after the paperwork is done.

Who it suits

A bills included office Dubai companies can sign for at a fixed annual cost suits a few kinds of tenant: a small trading, consulting or accounting firm that watches overheads closely, an overseas company setting up its first Dubai presence, and a growing business that wants a private room rather than a hot desk. The 24/7 access suits teams that work across time zones.

It is less suitable if you need your own meeting room or space for a larger team. In that case, the business centre has other office options in the same tower, which we can show you.
