Methodology & caveats

  • Physical-unit rental metrics exclude virtual Ejari, land leases, and whole-asset leases.
  • New and renewal labels follow the cleaned Ejari contract registration type.
  • Rent per area is converted from AED/sqm (1 sqm = 10.764 sqft) and depends on available unit area fields; omitted where missing.
  • Community rankings use rolling 12-month contracts with a minimum sample of 10.
  • Latest complete month excludes the current incomplete calendar month.
