Per property type
Apartment vs villa yield in Al Barsha
The headline 4.90% above is a contract-weighted blend of the types below — each type's own rents divided by its own comparable sales, then weighted by how many rent contracts each type actually has. We match per type first on purpose: pooling the raw medians would divide an apartment-heavy rent sample by a villa-heavy sale sample and invent a yield that neither type has.
| Type | Gross yield | Rent /sqm | Sale /sqm | Evidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| unit | 4.95% | AED 959 | AED 19,375 | 9,332 / 88 |
| house | 3.44% | AED 667 | AED 19,375 | 315 / 76 |

Questions
Al Barsha — questions
What is the rental yield in Al Barsha?
Al Barsha has a gross rental yield of 4.90%, computed from 9332 real Ejari rent contracts against 88 real DLD dwelling sales, per square metre. It is gross, not net — service charges are not deducted.
Are property prices falling in Al Barsha?
Resale prices fell 2.8% over the last 90 days versus the 90 before, measured on median AED per square metre of real DLD resale transactions (8 sales then, 12 now). Off-plan launches are excluded — developer pricing would move the median without any existing home re-pricing.
Where does this data come from?
Dubai Land Department transaction records and Ejari rent contracts — Dubai's official open data. Rents are new residential contracts only (renewals are rent-cap suppressed below market). Sales are built dwellings only (land plots and whole-building sales have a different price-per-sqm basis). Nothing here is an estimate.
Do you list properties for sale here?
No. We show real transactions — what actually sold. Listings are the portals' own data and we do not copy them; the links on this page open their live search for this community.
