Per property type

Apartment vs villa yield in Al Satwa

The headline 4.06% 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.

The communities whose real gross yield sits closest to this one. Not a geographic claim — Dubai's open data gives us transactions, not adjacency, so we compare on the evidence we actually publish.

Questions

Al Satwa — questions

What is the rental yield in Al Satwa?

Al Satwa has a gross rental yield of 4.06%, computed from 485 real Ejari rent contracts against 1130 real DLD dwelling sales, per square metre. It is gross, not net — service charges are not deducted.

Are property prices falling in Al Satwa?

Resale prices fell 21.6% over the last 90 days versus the 90 before, measured on median AED per square metre of real DLD resale transactions (16 sales then, 31 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.
