About University View
University View is a freehold residential building in Dubai Silicon Oasis, developed by Vakson Group through its subsidiary Vakson Real Estate. Propsearch.ae records completion in 2008 and counts 432 units, a figure that bayut.com and DXB Interact repeat.
Propsearch.ae calls it an eight-storey building and bayut.com a nine-storey mid-rise. The apartments are studios and one-bedroom units only, and bayut.com describes the building as suited to students and families, with three bus stops nearby and Academic City and International City within reach.

Price Guide: University View
No individual sale records for University View were available on the sources checked, so this guide quotes the aggregate figures DXB Interact publishes: a median of about AED 820 per sq ft across 18 sales.
By unit type, DXB Interact shows one-bedroom apartments at a median of about AED 770 per sq ft across 13 sales and studios at about AED 1,720 per sq ft across 5 sales. The studio figure is more than double the one-bedroom figure and rests on only five sales, so it should be treated with caution. Use Royale Stays' Dubai property ROI calculator to test a purchase price against expected returns.
Medians and sale counts from dxbinteract.com only, an aggregate of registered sales that may include commercial units. Propsearch.ae publishes no transaction section for this building and bayut.com gives no sale prices. The studio median rests on five sales and looks distorted by a small sample. No service-charge or rental figures are quoted.
Long-Term Rental Income Potential
Dubai Silicon Oasis is not one of Royale Stays' five core managed areas (Palm Jumeirah, Dubai Marina, Downtown Dubai, JBR and Business Bay), so this guide treats University View as a long-term rental and ownership proposition rather than a short-term-rental case study.
The studio and one-bedroom mix, rooftop pool and gym, and the students and technology-park workers nearby suit long-term tenants. No rental figures for the building were found on the sources checked, so none are quoted here. Owners considering holiday-home use would need to arrange a DTCM permit under the Dubai holiday home permit process and confirm building approval separately, since Royale Stays does not currently manage properties in this community.
Royale Stays has no current partnership, affiliation, or commercial relationship with Vakson Group. This page is an independent building guide for owners and investors researching the project.
