Is RA1N Residence the same as Rain Residence?+
Yes. RA1N Residence is the official name, written with the number 1 in place of the letter I, following Object 1's naming style for its projects. Buyers, brokers and property portals often write it as Rain Residence or Rain Residence JVC. Both names refer to the same 25-storey residential tower in District 12, Jumeirah Village Circle, developed by Object 1.
How is RA1N Residence different from V1ter Residence?+
Both towers are by Object 1, both sit in District 12 of Jumeirah Village Circle and both are complete. RA1N Residence was Object 1's first delivered project in Dubai and offers only 1 and 2-bedroom apartments. V1ter Residence, the second delivered project, covers a wider range from studios to 3-bedroom apartments. If you want a 1 or 2-bedroom home in a finished building, RA1N is the more focused of the two.
What amenities does RA1N Residence have?+
Residents have shared pools, including a separate children's swimming pool, an outdoor kids play area and children's area, a sports area, an outdoor workout space, a barbecue area and an entertainment zone. The building also has parking and shops and commercial premises. Because RA1N Residence is complete, these facilities are already in service, so overseas buyers are assessing amenities that exist rather than a brochure specification.
Who is RA1N Residence best suited to?+
RA1N Residence suits buyers who want a finished, furnished 1 or 2-bedroom apartment in an established Dubai community rather than waiting on construction. End users get a home they can move into, close to everyday shops, parks and nurseries in JVC. Investors buying from abroad can review the completed building, its finishes and its amenities before committing, instead of relying on renders.
When was RA1N Residence completed?+
RA1N Residence is complete and was handed over in Q1 2026, so buyers can view the finished building and the unit itself before committing, rather than buying from renders.

Can foreigners buy at RA1N Residence from abroad?+
Yes. Jumeirah Village Circle is a freehold community where non-UAE nationals can buy and register title with DLD; confirm the freehold status of the specific plot on the DLD title or Oqood certificate. You do not need to live in the UAE: most of the purchase can be handled from abroad. Where a signature is needed in Dubai, someone can sign for you under a power of attorney notarised in your country and legalised for use in the UAE. Transfer costs: 4% DLD registration fee on the price — DLD's schedule splits it 2% buyer / 2% seller, so check your SPA for who pays. Property worth AED 2M or more can support a Golden Visa application; units here start below that, so ask which layouts qualify.
