Methodology & caveats
- Sale and rent figures are point prices for each side's latest available month; each change is labelled with the exact periods it compares.
- Gross yield = annual rent ÷ sale price from the SAME month only; communities without same-month data show no yield.
- Building average AED/sqm is an all-time figure; latest-month figures are shown separately where available.
- Rental charts cover physical-unit contracts across usage buckets; virtual Ejari, land leases and whole-asset leases are excluded.
- AED/sqft is converted from AED/sqm (1 sqm = 10.764 sqft).
